You play by the bar rules or don't play.

Ok, what are bar rules? Can you provide documentation for these rules? I know this term is used as a kind of default answer, but can you actually show me a list of bar rules? Does this apply to all bars, or can it change from bar to bar? Get my point yet...the term bar rules means somethign more along the lines of "whatever we decide to play". If you wish to refer to the real rules of pool in general you can find them here.
BCA Standardized Rules

Bar rules vary from bar to bar. They often aren't written down, but the regulars know them well. Have fun whipping out "BCA standard rules" against a regular. If you're just playing your buddy and no one is waiting obviously you can do whatever you want.
