8-ball pool is played with one white "cue ball" and 15 numbered balls – including one black "8-ball." One player is trying to pocket the solid-colored balls ("solids," numbered 1-7) while the other player tries to knock in the striped balls ("stripes," numbered 9-15). A player cannot sink the 8-ball until he or she has pocketed all of the appropriate balls (stripes or solids). The first player to pocket the 8-ball wins the game. | 8-ball pool is played with one white "cue ball" and 15 numbered balls – including one black "8-ball."
