Can I pocket opponents coin in carrom?
Pocketing the queen must be followed by pocketing another coin on the same strike. The queen can only be pocketed if the player has already pocketed a carrom man but has not yet pocketed the last carrom man of the player’s color as a carrom man must be pocketed to cover it.
What happens if you pocket a striker and a red coin?
If this is the first coin of yours pocketed along with striker, then the pocketed coin will be kept inside the board by your opponent and one due will be called. The due will be kept by your opponent immediately when you pocket your next coin. But you will be allowed to continue your strike.
What happens if I pocketed both a queen and opponent’s coin simultaneously?
Both rule sets state the turn ends and the queen is replaced, the only difference being whether or not the penalty is charged. You can continue and get a turn to pocket the cover provided the white coin was not the last coin on the board. If white coin was the last coin on the board then white wins the board.

What do you do with the Red Queen in carrommen?
The red ‘queen,’ can be pocketed at any time after sinking your first piece but must be sunk before your last one. After pocketing the queen, you must sink one of your carrommen, thereby ‘covering’ it, into any pocket in the next shot, or she is returned to the center spot.
What happens if you sink your opponent’s piece?
If the center spot is partially covered when replacing the queen or a jumped piece, the piece should cover as much red as possible. If totally covered, the piece is placed opposite the next player behind the red spot. If you sink your opponent’s piece, you lose your turn.
