When a player fails to pot a ball with a legal shot or commits a foul, they pass their turn to their opponent.

The 2-ball would be, in this case, potted legally and the player gets another turn. For instance, if there are both the 1-ball and 2-ball in play (the 1-ball being the object ball), the player can hit the 1-ball with the cue ball first and have either rebound and pot the 2-ball. When the object ball gets potted, the next ball in the order that is still in play becomes the new object ball.Ī player gets another turn if they pot any ball with a legal shot (hit the object ball first). You can hit any other ball with your cue ball as long as the object ball is the first getting hit in the same shot. For this purpose, the lowest-numbered ball still in play is considered the “object ball”. Players must always hit the lowest-numbered ball with the cue ball first to make a legal shot. This might be achieved by potting it when it is the object ball (balls 1 through 8 have already been potted and the 9-ball is the last one remaining) or by potting it after hitting the object ball first in the same shot.Ī player begins with the ball in hand for the break shot, but can only place it between the left cushion and the starting line (the same way as with 8-Ball rules). The first player to pot the 9-ball legally wins. So when you choose the 10M bet but are matched against an opponent who bet 2.5M, that is the amount that will be used for your bet too, for a final prize of 5M coins. The way 9 Ball Pool works it that it matches 2 players and the prize amount is double the lowest bet between both.
