Can it be called cheating when you wind up causing yourself to lose?

On last night's "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" the talk show host took on film and Broadway star Hugh Jackman in a game invented for the show. Pool Bowling. With six bowling balls painted like billiard balls and placed in a huge pool table, the two tried to be the first to sink their three balls into the pockets.

When Jimmy Fallon took the lead, Jackman sneakily removed a ball from the pocket to put his opponent behind, but the star realized he had added one of his own balls back to the table! Watch the video below to see the game play out and then Fallon's reaction.

Hugh Jackman is best known for playing Wolverine in the "X-Men" films and solo movies. He was on the show to promote his upcoming Broadway play "The River," which starts previews in October. He also mentioned that he had been filming "Pan," a new take on the "Peter Pan" story with Jackman playing pirate villain Captain Hook. The 2015 film is being directed by Joe Wright, the director behind "Atonement" and "Hanna."

Jimmy Fallon is the former "Saturday Night Live" actor and is now the latest host of "The Tonight Show," taking over for Jay Leno in February 2014.
