(The 8-Ball is the black ball.)\nGame Rules\nAt the start of the game, there are 16 balls on the table: the cue ball (the white ball), the 8-Ball (the black ball), 7 striped balls, and 7 solid balls.\nAll shots in 8-Ball Pool are made by using a wooden stick, called thecue, to hit the cue ball into another ball. Based on the rules below, one player will become solids and one will become stripes. Before this has been decided, the table is considered \"open\". Once it has been decided, the table is \"closed\". Once you have pocketed all the balls of your type, you maytry to pocket the 8-Ball. The person who legally pockets the 8-Ball wins.\nThe break is the initial shot of the game, when all 15 balls other than the cue ball are \"racked\" into a triangular formation. The player who goes first has \"ball-in-hand\", meaning that he or she can reposition the ball, as long as it remains \"behind the headstring\" - that is, in the leftmost quarter of the table. Note that, on the break, it is impossible to pocket either the cue ball or the 8-Ball (the pockets will act like rails, as far as those two balls are concerned). To be a legal break, at least one ball must be pocketed or at least two balls beside the cue ball must hit a rail. If the player who goes first fails to make a legal break, the balls are re-racked, and the other player gets to break. Even if balls are pocketed on the break, the table remains open. However, pocketing one or more balls on the break allows the player who broke to continue his or her turn.Open table shots occur after the break, but before it has been determined who has solids and who has stripes. On an open table shot, you may hit the cue ball into any ball except the 8-Ball. If you pocket a solid ball, you become solids and the other player becomes stripes. If you pocket a striped ball, you become stripes and your opponent becomes solids. The display on the right side of the game window, just below your username, shows whether you are solids or stripes. If you sink one (or more) balls of each type, you get to choose whether you will be solids or stripes, via a pop-up dialog box. If you sink the 8-Ball on an open table shot, your opponent wins. In the event of an illegal shot, control goes to the other player, with full-table ball-in-hand. Any balls pocketed on an illegal shot remain pocketed, and the table remains open. An illegal open table shot is:the 8-Ball is the first ball struck by the cue ballthe cue ball is pocketed (a \"scratch\")the cue ball doesn\'t hit any other ball after the initial collision, no ball is pocketed and no ball hits a rail If you legally pocket one or more balls, in additional to closing the table, you get to go again.Closed table shots occur once it has been determined who has solids and who has stripes. Most of the shots in a typical game will be closed table shots. On a closed table shot, you may hit the cue ball into any ball of your group - solids or stripes. If you sink the 8-Ball on a closed table shot, your opponent wins.In the event of an illegal shot, control goes to the other player, with full-table ball-in-hand.An 8-Ball shot occurs once you have pocketed all the balls of your group. When attempting to pocket the 8-Ball, you must \"call\" a pocket. You can change your mind and call a different pocket, as long as you have not yet hit the cue ball. This allows you to attempt to set up your shot and, if the angle isn\'t optimal, select a different pocket instead. If the 8-Ball is then pocketed into the called pocket, you win - unless you also pocket the cueball on the shot, in which case your opponents wins. If the 8-Ball goes into a non-called pocket, your opponent wins. If the 8-Ball stays on the table, control merely moves back to your opponent. In the event of an illegal shot, control goes to the other player, with full-table ball-in-hand. 8ball, billiards, cue, cueball, english, free, fun, game, magic, online, opponent, play, player, pocket, pool, scratch, shot, table, toy
