Nice answer. Kills answering with long explanation. Warning from my own experience. Scotch doubles played male female will kill your relationship with the opposite sex.

My husband and I have been playing pool together now for 4 years. That is actually how we met in scotch doubles. We still love it

We are playing in a tourney tonight as a matter of fact

Ted sounds like a funny story behind that post of yours. Care to share?

I have seen a few couples get in some pretty good arguments about scotch doubles. Usually the guy is mad because the gal misses the shot or doesn't leave him shape. I have seen a few teams where the lady is the better player and these ladies can get mean when the guy makes these same mistakes.

There are a few exceptions to the rule as in Kenda and her husband, but the larger majority argues as far as I have seen.
