Eight Ball

Manufacturer: Bally

Familiarity: 4/5

1970'sEM

Easy

The goal is to get 8ball. Get 3 or 4 balls to build up bonus, then shoot the right orbit. It increases bonus to 2x, 3x, 5x and then rewards points.

Medium

Left spinner is always good if spinner in good condition. When spinner is lit its worth a fair amount. Getting all 4 inlanes in the top lights the middle inlane which when rolled over, increases orbit which increases bonus. So, I like to just do lit spinner rips (10-20k a shot) rather than bonus (3k/ball)

Hard

General notes

Skill shot - If you can plunge to go in hole 4, it will normally bounce and hit the 8 ball target which helps with drains.

Hint - Hitting the 8ball target lights the left outlane save.
