General Rules for Flow Masters Pool
Welcome to the world of Flow Masters Pool (FMP). FMP is a game and format that you will come to love almost immediately! It combines good competitive play for the more experienced pool players with a play format that is very considerate of the working person, i.e., understanding that many players have an early rise for work the next morning. The format is designed to be fast yet challenging!
​
In FLOW Masters, you play three of the most popular games, all rolled into one match, that is, 9-Ball, 10-Ball, and 8-Ball. Playing all three format adds variety to the match and, therefore, leads to even more excitement and playing enjoyment!
All matches are a race to six (6). And to speed up match play further, FMP has been designed so that you play the fastest format first, followed by other formats that typically take slightly more time to complete. What that means is you play the race to six (6) in the following sequence: four (4) games of 9-ball, followed by four (4) games of 10-ball, followed by three (3) 8-Ball, in that order, with no deviation in the order of formats played or number of games played in a particular game format. You may not substitute 1) a game type for another or 2) the number of games played per format. The order and number stand!
