it's a gem of a game. on the one that I played at clay's VFW, the balls were colored (four different colors I believe) and had card values on them (10, jack, queen, king, ace [and wild?]). when you started the game, the center rotates, flinging the balls outwards and all over the place. each player has 5 "holes" to capture balls in.

the goal (depending on the rules that the players agree upon) is to capture 5 balls in front of you, using either best poker hand or balls all of a pre-determined color). there is a push button ejector for each hole so that the players can "reject" a captured ball that they don't want back, throwing it back into the mix.

the motor runs for about a minute or two and when it stops, everyone compares their "hand" with the other players, with high hand winning
