However, all players involved are required to hit the lowest numerical object on the table with the cue ball every turn, starting from the 1-ball, then the 2-ball, and so on.

To that end, neither can target the 9-ball until the first eight have been pocketed. Should the 9-ball sink by chance before then, then the player who accomplished that wins the game.

Since only nine balls are utilized in this game, a diamond-shaped rack designed to hold that many is used in place of the usual ball triangular one.

Ten-ball — The rules of this game are largely similar to nine-ball, barring a few exceptions. The most obvious is that it uses ten balls, but more than that, the player is required to call both the ball he intends the sink and the pocket he intends to use every turn.

Whoever sinks the ball first wins. One Pocket — This game is similar to straight pool in that scoring a set number of points by pocketing balls is the key to winning.

The difference lies in the name; players only earn points by sending balls into specific pockets on the table. Bank Pool — Just like in straight pool, the object of this game is to score points by sinking balls.

Getting the hang of bank shots requires lots of practice, so this game is recommended for experienced pool players. Snooker — The object of snooker is to score more points than the opposition while potting balls in a specific order.

Every ball is worth a different amount of points, with reds worth one apiece, while the yellow is worth two, green is worth three, brown earns four, blue gets five, and black scores seven.

A player cannot attempt to pocket any of the colored balls until he successfully pockets a red one. If a player succeeds in potting a colored ball, he receives the appropriate amount of points, the ball gets returned to its original position on the table, and the player get to take another shot.

His turn ends once he fails to pot a ball. When no more red balls remain on the table, both players can start to directly target the colored ones, which no longer get replaced.

The game ends when no objects remain on the table. Cue sports are believed to have evolved from outdoor games that involved hitting balls with stick-like instruments, such as golf and croquet.

The equipment of early billiard games reflected this, with wicket-like hoops placed on the table of which balls had to be hit through using club-like cues called maces.

These maces were not used to strike the balls, but to gently push them along on the table. For one thing, whenever a ball found itself situated too close to a bank, many players found it advantageous to hit it using the butt end of their mace.

Another was how players would sometimes intentionally bounce balls off of the bank in order to make more tricky shots. These would lay the groundwork for future developments in billiards.

The earliest known billiard table in recorded history belonged to King Louis XI, who reigned in France from to The Duke of Norfolk was said to own such a table himself in , and legend has it that the head of Mary, Queen of Scots, was wrapped in the cloth of her own billiard table when she was executed in Louis XIV in particular was known to enjoy the games, with billiards spreading in popularity among the French aristocracy while he ruled from to Eventually, the games were known throughout all of Europe and became a popular pastime among people in the middle class.

As the 19th century rolled around, so did advances in technology and industrialization, and billiard games benefited from both. The mace had all but disappeared in favor of the cue stick, which by , now had the leather tip we are all familiar with today.

Chalk was more frequently applied to the cue in order to aid in its striking capabilities. After rubber vulcanization came about in , more tables had rubberized cushions built into them to improve their bounciness.

Wickets either disappeared from the tables completely, or were replaced by pockets that were cut into the newly-designed banks.

At this point in time, the most popular cue sport in Britain was English Billiards. It was played on a six-pocket table with two cue balls and one object ball.

This game formed the basis for what would eventually become snooker. Where it differed was that it was played on a four-pocket table with four balls.

By the s, Four-Ball began to fall out of favor as popularity began to pick up for a new game known as American Fifteen-Ball Pool.

This game marked the starting point for what would eventually become modern-day pool. From the late s to the mids, billiards grew in popularity.

Pool halls were a common sight in cities for friends to get together.
