Here is some basic rules:
1. Wins: best out of 9,
first to reach 5 goals
2. If there's a legal
goal, it is a point, no matter who hit it
3. Can't spin the rods
4. Toss a coin to see who
serves first
5. Before a score the
ball has to be touched.
6. After a goal, the
loser serves the ball
7. If the ball is stuck
it is a "dead ball" and the team last scored upon serves
8. If the ball falls off
the table the team last scored upon serves
9. Can't reach into the
ball while it is in play
10. Can hold the ball for max 15 seconds in one place
Eight Ball is played with a cue ball and fifteen object
balls, numbered 1 through 15. One player must pocket balls of the group
numbered 1 through 7 and the other player has 9 thru 15. The player pocketing
his group first and then pocketing the 8 ball wins the game.
Nine Ball is played with nine object balls numbered one through nine and a cue ball. On each shot the first ball the cue ball contacts must be the lowest-numbered ball on the table, but the balls need not be pocketed in order. If a player pockets any ball on a legal shot, he remains at the table for another shot, and continues until he misses, fouls, or wins the game by pocketing the 9-ball. After a miss, the incoming player must shoot from the position left by the previous player, but after any foul the incoming player may start with the cue ball anywhere on the table. Players are not required to call any shot. a match ends when one of the players has won the required number of games.
