i’m in the middle of playing this w my friend and i have no idea how to

[artemkatelnytskyi]

Most other videos I've watched failed to mention what makes a legal break and a legal shot. So this is a great video. The only thing I would add is that you have to put opposite balls in the base of the racking triangle, as others pointed out. Thanks!

[kyldavis]

when racking, the two bottom corners have to be opposite (stripe on one, solid on the other). the two balls below the 8 ball have to be opposite (solid/stripe). no balls can be consecutive along the outer edge (you cannot have 3 solids in a row or 3 stripes in a row).

[HsingSun]

Thank you for the video. I do not know anyone play a group of three, but I do. We divide five balls for each player: Player 1 get numbers 1-5; Player 2 get numbers 6-10, and Player 3 get numbers 11-15. As the final winner, you must sink all your five balls into the pocket.

[richardandrew]

Hmm, this helped me understand fouls! Thanks, now i can't get hustled again

[srj]

so difficult to play with my kids.. need to learn somemore, thanks

[holdenalmazan]

Nice tutorial. i learn a lot..because i have no idea how to play billards...

[Biancz]

Thanks for thie very informative video on Pool! 👌👌

[ARCXIE]

Hey I love your videos you have helped me discover new games and how to play them but can you make a video on how to play poker it would really help me out!

[awolf]

0:55 you can also lag to decide for break

1:25 not entirely true. The requirement for 4 balls to hit a rail must be met only if a ball isn’t pocketed on a break. As long as a ball is potted on the break, it doesn’t matter how many balls hit a rail.

1:43 you can also rerack and allow the original breaker to break again

1:49 pocketing a ball that is not yours is only a foul if you contact that ball being an opponents ball first. Hitting your ball first which then touches an opponents ball that is potted is not a foul, it’s just the end of your turn

2:34 this is incorrect as it’s the break shot the cue ball is only limited to ball in hand behind the head string. Any other foul immediately after a foul break is where you can have ball in hand anywhere on the table.

NO BASHING READ TO THE END!!!
I'M REALLY ASKING FOR CLEARIFICATION AS I DO NOT KNOW BETTER !!!

Solid video, liked it, all in all cool video that gives many insides.
Great animation style

For beginners like me: PLEASE IGNORE EVERYTHING BELOW as you can not take anything i've said here for granted (or may be you can, depending on answers given by pro's [hopefully])!

but i've one issue, one question and some remarks with it :
I'm trying to learn 8 ball with my family right now and have been reading many rules and watching many videos lately, so please correct me where I might be wrong.



Issue:
~ 3:17 "potted the solid [..] now you only target solid balls...." in the example the 8 is also marked... that ball is not allowed for playing directly, even by the solid playing player, unless it is the last ball
Question:
~ 0:50 Who goes first, isn't that done by "Stringing" instead of a coin ?

Remarks:
~ 0:30 Building/Racking the break: If i'm not totally wrong the break is build random, only rule given is the position of the EIGHT [All rules] (AND that the left and right corner balls are diffrent type ( spot and stripe) [BCA])
most players put the 1 in the front but it is not needed by rules. Video shows solid balls in all three corners (APA ruleset of '23 does not even mention the two type in corner rule)
~ 3:03 "... but you potted both a stripe and as solid... " but the balls shown in example and marked being solid [2(Blue) 6(Green)]

Props to my friend for coming up with a bunch of bs rules in order to look knowledgeable 😂

[waynemurphy]

I love the comment on this one is Awesomely am 62 and all the comments crack me up.For anyone not sure how to play, your friend should show you or that person isn't a friend.In regards to racking the balls, if your good enough your pot a few balls.His shown you the tricks just follow and you might get a few in and when the game.If you have trouble playing with your kids then get them to play fair and teach you.Okay people, in Australia or what ever rules you wish to follow, you break and the a if the white comes off the table their is no fouls as long as a ball hasn't drop, then the game continues, if the ball drops, then the oppenate can say I will take that ball and no single shot is needed.If all on the black, first mistake wins, that is hit the black and go in off then they lose, black goes in and white off the table, then they lose.All depends what country you live in.State rules before you start, then no argument.

When we pot the cue ball in snooker, then can we play directly backwards shot from the D or we have to play it forward only? Any expert suggestions?

[BrookeonFoot]

Are there any situations in which a player gets two shots? For example, is the opposing team scratches the cue ball, would the other team get two shots? Or can they only place the cue ball anywhere on the table? I have also seen rules about where you fan place the cue ball- usually in a small section of the table opposite of where you rack. I’m just learning how to play so I apologize if I’m not using the correct terminology. If you have any other rules about when a player gets two shots, I’d really appreciate it! Thank you for the helpful video!

[pequodexpress]

Is there a version of 8-Ball, where if you pot a ball on the break you are not automatically that grouping, solids or stripes, and you must you pot a ball on your next consecutive shot to determine grouping?

[music]

Can I re-declare the pocket on my 8 ball shot if I miss, or do I now still have to shoot it into that pocket that I originally declared?

[chinonsopromise]

In Nigeria there's no ball in hand, it's just two shots on any foul your opponents commit. And also if they scratch (pocketing the cue ball), the opponents will take the ball and place it in the breaking section and play.

And seriously it's so annoying

[rishabhbhatnagar]

I have a question - What if I pot the White Cue ball on the turn when I have to pot the Black ball, but the Black ball still remains on the table. Does my opponent continue to get their turn with ball in hand or the game ends?

[coppertopv]

I Play this With variation..
Scratch, you start behind the Line, can lose if you drop the White while shooting black, scratch if you go off table, calling shots isnt strict or necessary
