Learn to Play 9 Ball Pool
9 Ball, a form of pool or pocket billiards, originated in the United States in the 1920's and has been enjoyed since that time. Today nine ball is more popular than ever with ESPN coverage and sponsorship which maintains an extremely large viewing audience for the game.
The game is played with ten balls: the cue ball, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and nine ball. The balls are racked in a diamond shape with the one ball at the diamond tip closest to the cue ball and the nine ball in the center of the diamond. On every shot the cue ball must strike the lowest number ball first before striking any other ball. The game is won by whoever knocks the nine ball in the pocket.
