This is a name given to Pyramids when played by more than two persons.
When a striker pockets a red ball he receives from each of the other
players a stake previously agreed on. No ball is ever replaced on the table
after a miss, or after pocketing the white. Should any player miss or
pocket the white, he pays for each of the other players as well as for
himself whenever the next red ball is pocketed. When only one red ball is
left in play, each player continues playing with the white. Pocketing the
red is now paid double all round; and if a striker miss, or pocket the
white, he pays double all round.
