9 Ball Pool Game - Play FREE Online Games - Billiards

http://www.online-mystery-shopper.com...(Safe Shopping Link)As quickly as possible, sink all the balls except for the cue ball.9-Ball Pool is a single-player version of the popular pool game of the same name. As with all pool games, you proceed by hitting your cue stick into the cue ball (the solid white ball). The cue ball then hits other balls, possibly pocketing some (by hitting them into one of the six pockets distributed around the perimeter of the pool table).The cue ball must always first hit the lowest-numbered ball on the table. For example, as long as the 1-Ball (the solid yellow ball) is still on the table, that must be the first ball your cue ball hits. The current target ball is always signified by a yellow halo.You start the game by "breaking" (that is, hitting the cue ball into the diamond-shaped arrangement of balls to scatter them). Since the 1-Ball is on the table, that must be the first ball you hit with your cue ball; the 1-Ball will always be the front-most ball in the group. Until you break, the cue ball is considered to be "in hand", and you can move it to any spot "behind the line" (that is, in the leftmost quarter of the table). On the break, it is impossible to sink either the cue ball or the 9-Ball; during the break shot, as far as those two balls are concerned, the pockets will act like rails.The game ends as soon as the 9-Ball is sunk, legally or illegally. Note that the 9-Ball can be pocketed legally while there are still lower balls on the table, as long as the target ball was the first ball struck by the cue ball. For example, if you hit the cue ball into the target ball, and that ball then hits the 9-Ball into a pocket, you have legally pocketed the 9-Ball and the game ends. If you legally pocket the 9-Ball, you get points for any balls that are still on the table.If you scratch, in addition to the score penalty, the table will be reset to its pre-scratch position, and you must take the shot again. Other than that case, all balls, once pocketed, stay pocketed. You will get points for each ball that is pocketed legally (that is, pocketed on a shot in which the target ball was the first ball struck by the cue ball). First, left-click in the game window, then move your mouse to aim the cue by rotating it around the cue ball. A "ghost image" of your cue ball shows where it will initially strike another ball (or the railing of the table). You can also use the left and right arrow keys to rotate the cue.You can control the "English" (spin) on the ball using the English control in the lower left corner. Click on the English control to move the plus sign to a different part of the cue ball. Moving the plus sign to the top of the English control will give the cue ball top spin, and so forth. Following your shot, the plus sign will return to its default position, in the center of the cue ball.You receive 500 points for legally pocketing the 1-Ball; 1,000 points for the 2-Ball; 1,500 points for the 3-Ball; etc. Remember that if you legally sink the 9-Ball while there are other balls still on the table, you get the point values for those balls as well. The base score for sinking all nine balls legally is 22,500.Try not to scratch, in order to avoid the resulting penalty and delay. Take note of the line that shows the post-collision direction of the cue ball, and make sure it's not pointing at a pocket. If it is, try a different shot, or use English to redirect the cue ball.Use the right amount of power. A ball that reaches the pocket with too much speed is less likely to sink, and more likely to rebound. Also, using too much power is also a good way to scratch, as your cue ball goes bouncing wildly around the table.Mastering English will help you to control the post-collision direction of your cue ball, putting it in a better position for the following shot.Pool originated as an outdoor lawn game in the 14th century, and migrated to an indoor table-top form sometime over the next hundred years. The traditional green surface of a pool table is believed to be traceable to the game's lawn-based origins. The game was so popular in 16th century Britain that while Mary, Queen of Scots, was awaiting execution in 1586, she complained about being deprived of playing. When the first book of pool rules was written, in 17th century Britain, pockets had not been developed yet; players aimed for a small arch-shaped object that was placed on the table. Pool is sometimes also called "pocket billiards", to distinguish it from "carom billiards" which is played on a pocketless table. The name "pool" came into use in the U.S. in the 19th century, when the game was widely played in "pool rooms", which were parlors for collective horse race betting. The 9-Ball variation of pool first appeared around 1920.

How To Measure A Pocket

Greg Sullivan of Diamond Billiard Products demonstrates the way the pros measure a pocket on a pool table.

Nine foot pool table installed!

Bought an old Brunswick table from the local pool hall (Sal Butera Billiards in Moorpark, CA) they are updating to Diamond 9 footers and had about a dozen of these to sell. Sean Lane delivered and set it up and put on brand new Simonis 860 tournament blue cloth and shimmed up the pockets. Here are pictures of the how to process of installing a full size pool table with three slates. The pool table is exactly seven feet two inches away from my computer desk - I'll never leave this room again I'm the luckiest guy in the world! :)

Dr. Cue - Lesson 12 - Speed Defined With Controlled Practice

One of the most important concepts for developing excellence in your game is acquiring a "feel" for "speed control". The first step in this process is to define speed in terms of "table lengths" and focusing on slow and medium speeds, which are used for 70% of all shots and most "diamond system" applications.

Corey Dueul's Challenge on Running A Rack of Balls

Corey Dueul created a new game for pool. The objective is to run a rack of balls in the least amount of strokes. Kind of like golf. To see the layout of this run please go to CueTable Public Library: BarTable Talk section. The video were taken by Paul Smith at the Diamond/Gabriels Booth. Edited by CueTable.com It sounds easy but in reality it is pretty hard. If you break a ball in on the break, there are fourteen balls left on the table and you have 11 shots left. This means you will have to find at least 3 "two way" shots on the table and excute them with no mistakes. He was taking bets on running a rack of balls in 12 shots at the Super Billiards Expos 2007
