Online Pool Game Rules
8-Ball
8-ball is played with 15
balls and a cue ball.
The goal of each player
is to pocket their set
of balls (solid: 1-7, or
stripes: 9-15) and then
to pocket the 8 ball.
The first player to
legally pocket the 8
ball wins the game.
Players do not need to
call their shots in this
version of 8-ball. A
player`s turn is over
when they fail to pocket
one of their balls or if
they scratch.
Breaking
The break is made by
Player 1, beginning from
any point behind the
Head String. The Head
String is defined by an
imaginary vertical line
across the table at the
rightmost spot. If
Player 1 pockets a ball
on the break, their set
of balls (stripes or
solid) is selected by
the first ball. If
Player 1 does not pocked
a ball, Player 2 shoots
and the table remains
open until a ball is
pocketed.
Losing the game
A player immediately
loses the game for any
of the following
reasons:
- Pocketing the 8 ball
when they are not
shooting at the 8 ball.
- Scratching the cue
ball while shooting at
the 8 ball.
- Pocketing the cue ball
and the 8 ball.
