For those who are just beginning table shuffleboard, the rules can be confusing. You should be familiar with the basic rules of table shuffleboard before you can start playing. There are many variations of shuffleboard. Each game has its own rules. Crazy Eight is one of these variations. It's a slightly more difficult version than the standard version. This game uses a unique scoring system, which awards points in different ways.
The first thing to know about table-shuffleboard is that each person only has one chance at scoring in a round. The winner of most table shuffleboard games is the one who has scored 15 or 21 points. The remaining players can choose to shoot a second game. Another option is to take a shot at the "hammer shot", which is the final shot in any round.
Your goal in a shuffleboard match is to get your puck closer to the table. It is done by moving your puck from the edge towards the middle of the board. You will have to slide it along the edge to do this. When you are ready for the shot, you should stand behind your opponent, not in front.
After your puck lands, it's a good idea to push it into the right spot to score. You can move the puck forward or backwards depending on where it is. This will allow you to score the most points. You should keep your foot on the ground behind it.
There are three scoring zones for players on their tables. Each zone is worth a different number of points. For example: The first zone grants one point for every puck landed in it. The second section awards two points for each ball, while the third section allows for three. To score in the third zone, the puck must cross the line between the "2" and the "3" areas.
The last scoring area, located at the bottom of the table across from the foul line, is the one that crosses the middle. Pucks that do not clear the foul line are out of play. Also, the puck on the foul line is worth no points, unless it lands in the correct zone.
Pucks have a number. You can inspect if your puck is on the line by standing over it. They can also push the pucks into better scoring spots to increase their chances.
Pucks are weighted and come in sets of eight. They measure 2.3125 inches wide. They weigh in at 12 ounces for regulation, and can be found in recreational sizes between 11 to 15 ounces. For games played on narrow surfaces, smaller pucks can be used, while larger pucks can be used for larger surfaces.
Knock Off and Crazy Eight are two of the most common versions of Shuffleboard. They can be played up to four players. Crazy Eight, which has a similar game play to the classics, is another popular version.
