    Well: Most of the rules listed (e.g. Cowboy) refer to games played on a pocket billiards table! Make up your mind.

    Right you are. I've moved the Cowboy pocket billiard rules from this section to the pocket billiard section.

    This error was the result of a list selection mistake. (The editor selected section 2 - carom billiards instead of section 1 - pocket billiards)

    All of the other rules, however, are considered rules of carom-style games.

    Thanks again for the heads up. Much appreciated.
