Pool Checkersプールチェッカー
American pool: men take backward, kings fly, and you choose which capture to make.
The checkers of the American South, traditionally played by African American players, and in Puerto Rico and Jamaica too. Its origin is undocumented; Vladimir Kaplan traced it to Spanish checkers. The American Pool Checker Association has kept its rules since the 1960s, and the rules here are the association's Tournament Rules of Play (2016). Its thirty-move rule is announced and counted by a player, and nobody announces anything here, so a game going nowhere is ended by this site's own forty-move count instead.
Also known as American Pool Checkers, Spanish Pool Checkers.
The object 目的
- Leave the other side with no piece that can move: jump theirs off the board until none is left, or shut in whatever remains.
- No lines and nothing placed after the start: every piece is down from the first move, and the whole game is in how they step and jump.
