Geocache Description:


The cache is not at the above coordinates, and it's not in the river, but you can play Pocket Pool and find out where it is.

Pocket billiards is played with 16 balls, fifteen with numbers plus the cue ball without a number. In this game you need to discover what balls have been sunk into the six different pockets on the pool table and then figure out where the cache is hidden. The grid below corresponds to the sixteen billiard balls shown in the photo. Visit each location to ascertain if the statement is true or false. If false, the ball is still in play. If the statement is true, the ball has been pocketed! The pockets are designated by the letters A–F and each pocket contains exactly one ball. If the ball has a two digit number use both digits when determining the pocket location, but only use the ones-digit for the coords.
