Nine-Ball is a rotation game where only the 1 through 9 balls and cue ball are used. The player at the table must make a legal shot on the lowest numbered ball on the table or a foul is called. The game is won by legally pocketing the nine ball (which can be done by striking the lowest numbered ball first and then driving the 9 into a pocket). Nine-ball is the predominant professional game. There are many local and regional tours and tournaments that are contested with nine-ball. There is no particular governing body of Nine-ball. Most places play with a version of "Texas Express", BCA (Billiard Congress of America) or WPA (World Pool-Billiard Association) rules. The largest Nine-ball tournaments are the independent US Open and the World 9-Ball Championships for men and women. Male professionals have a rather fragmented schedule of professional Nine-ball tournaments. The UPA (United States Pool Players Association) has been the most dominant association for the last few years but the IPT (International Pool Tour) is taking over the top spot in men's billiards. Female professionals have a steady professional circuit that is governed by the WPBA (Women's Professional Billiard Association).

9 Ball isn't a decision shot pastime. each time the 9 drops on a legal shot, the pastime is over and the shooter wins. in case you have been going to make your very own rule the place you will possibly be able to desire to call the 9, i might say that by danger pocketing the 9 shouldn't count kind as a made shot, and hence the shooter's turn is over except he pocketed yet another ball on an identical time. FYI, this would not be a "foul" in any set of real looking regulations. a undesirable is while the shooter would not touch the backside ball first and then touch a rail (or pocket a ball), or scratches, or jumps a ball off the table, etc. purely lacking isn't a "foul." All genuine fouls consequence in ball-in-hand everywhere on the table in 9 Ball.

What's your question? Does it exist? Yes? How do you play it? You have balls 1-9 on the table and you have to hit them in order. You can knock other balls in out of turn, but you HAVE to hit the next consecutive numbered ball into the combo ball. Get it? Got it? Good.

You have to play the balls in correct order. Same rules apply to the game of 9 ball as in 8 ball. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!
