Snooker Shoot Out rules
The Shoot Out is one frame against a ten-minute clock. Every shot has a shot clock: 15 seconds for the first five minutes, 10 after. Every shot must pot a ball or put a ball on a cushion, fouls give ball in hand anywhere, and a tie is settled on the blue.

Can I play a Shoot Out on The Snooker Hub?
Yes. Pick Shoot Out as the game: the board runs both clocks and the blue ball decider.
