Boccette is a billiards-type game played in Italy. A variation of the game of five-pins, it is played on a <dfn style="border-bottom:1px dotted #0645AD; font-style:inherit;">pocket</dfn>less (carom) billiard table with nine balls (typically four white, four red, and one blue). Cue sticks are not used; the balls are manipulated with the hands directly, as in finger billiards.
