If no object ball is pocketed from a legal break, then the players continue alternatively playing at either group until such a time as a legal pot is made, which decides the player's group.On the first occasion a player legally pockets an object ball, including following a foul, then that ball denotes their group, unless one or more of both groups are pocketed, the player MUST then nominate a group before play continues.This applies even if other balls, including the cue ball, are pocketed, or leave the playing surface ("off the table"). If the 8 ball (black) is pocketed from the break shot, the balls will be re-racked and the game will be restarted by the same player.The opposing player then starts the game with two visits. Failure to do so is a foul break and will result in the balls be re-racked as per rule sheet. An object ball must be pocketed, or at least TWO object balls hit any cushion. The opening player plays at the triangle of object balls by striking the cue ball from any position on, or behind, the baulk line.The winner of the flip has the option of breaking, or requesting their opponent to do so. Order of play is determined by the flip of a coin.The balls are racked as illustrated on the rule sheet with the 8 ball (black) on the 8 ball spot, which is at the intersection of the centre and corner pockets.The player or team pocketing all their group of object balls in any order, and then legally pocketing the 8 ball, wins the game.Ĥ. Balls in the two groups are known as object balls.
Usually red replaces stripes (9-15), yellow replace solid (1-7). Alternatively, the numerical groups 1-7 and 9-15 may be represented by two different sets of 7 coloured balls. Balls comprise of two numbered groups, 1-7 which are solid coloured balls, 9-15 are striped coloured balls, the 8 ball is a solid colour black. The game is played on a rectangular 6-pocket table with 15 balls plus a cue ball. The referee will take whatever action is necessary to ensure that these rules are observed. It should be clearly understood that the referee is the sole judge of what is fair and unfair play. It is intended that players and teams should play 8 Ball Pool in the true spirit of the game and in a sportsmanlike manner. The game shall be known as 8 Ball Pool and referred to in these rules as "The Game".
