What are the 8 Ball Pool rules?
The game has only two groups of balls: stripes and solids. The group of balls is determined when the first ball is scored. The first person who scores eight balls from their group wins. In the end, you must score a black ball into the hole of your choice. If you score a black ball before all of the balls in your group have been scored, you lose.
In addition, hitting your opponent’s ball directly with the cue will be considered a foul. In this case, your opponent has the right to put the ball on the board at any convenient place. Also, if you score a white ball, the turn passes to your opponent.
