Many friends play billiards, which come and go: black 8, 9 balls and snooker, and some small towns and places also play poker. In fact, billiards is more than that. There are many other ways to play it. Generally, we are familiar with fancy, open and so on, but fancy games are generally high-end and difficult to control, so few people play and play it well. Today, Macey introduces the most complete billiards game and detailed rules. Interested friends can try it with 35 confidants on weekends!
Category introduction:
The classification of billiards is inconclusive. According to the equipment used (table and ball), rules and historical origins, it is divided into the following five categories:
1. Opening: There is no pocket on the table. The purpose of hitting the ball is to make the cue ball hit the cue ball or the edge of the table in various prescribed ways and times. Its playing methods include four-ball competition, three-ball competition, free ball, obstacle line and three stars.
2. Fancy billiards (also known as American billiards): The table has six pockets, and the purpose of hitting the ball is to make the ball fall into the pocket. Because of the use of colored balls (flower balls) marked with numbers, it is called "Fancy billiards". There are 14-1, 8 balls, 9 balls and 10 balls.
3. Snooker and English billiards: The table also has six pockets, and the purpose of hitting the ball is to make the ball fall into the pocket, but the rules are different. Compared with fancy billiards, its tabletop is larger, the ball and pocket are smaller, and the difficulty of scoring is higher. Snooker uses fifteen red balls, six colored balls with different colors and a white cue ball; English billiards only uses white, red and Huang San balls.
4. Russian billiards: The size of the table is similar to that of snooker, but the ball is larger and the pocket is smaller, which makes it the most difficult to score. Use fifteen white numbered cue balls and one red cue ball, and there are liberal, mixed and dynamic ways to play.
5. Bottle billiards: A number of small bottles similar in shape to bowling pins are placed in the center of the table. The purpose of hitting the ball is to knock down a sufficient number of small bottles. The more popular Italian bottle billiards use the open table without pockets, while the Danish bottle billiards use the fancy table with six pockets. According to the number of bottles used, it is divided into two ways: 5 bottles and 9 bottles.
Detailed introduction:
Fold and edit this paragraph of fancy billiards
The table used in fancy billiards has six pockets, and the purpose of impact is to make the colored balls fall into the pockets. Because of the use of colored balls (flower balls) marked with numbers, it is called "fancy billiards" There are 14-1, 8-ball, 9-ball, 10-ball, bag ball and turn ball.
Fancy billiards 14-1 is a fancy billiards game using white cue balls and 15 numbered balls. Before each stroke, you must specify the number of the ball and the pocket. If the ball hits the pocket successfully, you can score and continue to hit the ball. Otherwise, the opponent will hit the ball. Before the start, 15 sub-balls were closely arranged in the triangular frame line on one side of the table, and the center of the front sub-ball just fell on the foot point. If you don’t score at the kick-off, you must let at least two balls touch the edge of the table, otherwise it will be a foul and the points will be deducted.
When the sub-balls on the table are bagged one by one and only one ball remains, a game is completed. At this time, we must pick up the 14 sub-balls in the bag and re-arrange them in the triangular frame line. Except for the position of the front foot, the other balls are still closely arranged, forming the so-called inter-game kick-off.
14-1 Usually, the target score is agreed in advance, one point is scored when a goal is scored, and the winner is the one who reaches the target first. The goal of formal competition is usually set to 100 points, while that of professional competition is 150 points. 14-1 is popular in the United States, Europe, the Philippines, Japan and Taiwan Province, and it was a very common billiards game before the prosperity of 9-ball and 8-ball.
Fold 8 balls
At the beginning of the 8-ball game, the sub-ball is placed in the triangular frame, the bottom of the triangular frame is parallel to the foot star (the short side of the table), and the front and rear positions are subject to the ball at the front end corresponding to the foot point. When arranging the sub-balls, push the first ball forward from the back end of the ball pile, so that the sub-balls are closely connected. According to the world standard rules, the No.8 ball must be placed in the middle position, and the sub-balls in the lower left corner and the lower right corner must be a big flower and a small flower (please see the picture above). The cue ball can be placed in the tee area according to the requirements of the players.
The player who has the right to kick off the ball pile first. If the kick-off is fouled (less than four balls hit the edge of a star or no ball enters the bag), the opponent can ask to kick off again and become the kickoff, or continue the game in the current situation. If there is a pocket after the kick-off, the tee can continue to serve, and the game is still in an "open" state (meaning that the tee is free to choose whether to play big flowers or small flowers). If the tee shot doesn’t get the ball into the bag for the second time, the game is still "open" until a ball falls into the bag.
After one player fouls or fails to get the ball into the bag, he stops the shot and is replaced by the other player. The game is played in this way. After the foul, the player who goes out next has a chance to free the ball and put it anywhere on the table.
On the first shot after kick-off, if a player scores a big flower ball, he can only score a big flower ball into the bag in the future, and the other player plays a small flower ball. Once a player has bagged all his balls, he needs to put the No.8 ball into his designated bag to win eloquently. If he enters the wrong bag or fouls the shot, he loses the authority, otherwise his right to shoot ends.
After scoring all your own balls (big flowers or small flowers), if you don’t violate the rules, hitting the No.8 ball into the pocket is the winner.
Fold 9 balls
Volleyball is arranged in a diamond shape, with No.1 at the front end, No.9 in the middle, and others placed casually.
Whoever scores No.9 wins, but the cue ball must touch the ball with the smallest number first, which means you can eat slowly from No.1 to No.9, or you can indirectly score No.9, both of which are legal. If you score on the 9 th as soon as you kick off, it will be considered a victory. Incidentally, when kicking off, the cue ball must touch No.1 first.
In case of foul, the opponent has a free ball, and the opponent can put the cue ball in any position on the table. If he fouls three times in a row, he will lose the game directly.
You don’t have to pick up the foul ball, except for No.9, you should pick it up and put it on your leg.
In general, the winner usually kicks off or takes turns to kick off.
After the kick-off, there are often other sub-balls between the cue ball and the ball with the smallest number, which prevents the cue ball from hitting the target ball directly. Therefore, in order to reduce the luck factor, the first shot after a tee shot can be a push-out ("putter"), which must be declared in advance. The so-called push-out means that the cue ball can be pushed to any position without being restricted by the rule of hitting the ball with the smallest number first. You can score the ball if you want (but pick it up on the 9th). If the cue ball falls into the bag, it is considered a foul, and the opponent can choose to play or not. The general strategy is to put the cue ball in one position and touch the target ball, but it can’t be directly put into the bag. If the target ball can’t be hit after the kick-off, the players usually push out, and then the two sides enter the defensive battle.
However, in a few competitions, in order to reduce the luck factor, the rule of winning directly by kicking off on the 9 th will be cancelled, but the kick-off on the 9 th must be picked up. It is also possible to require that the mouth of the bag must be specified in advance when attacking No.9.
Fold 10 balls
10-ball is a new project developed from 9-ball, and the playing method is basically similar to 9-ball, with the main differences as follows:
1. Volleyball is arranged in a triangle, with the No.1 ball at the front end and the No.10 ball in the middle of the triangle, and the positions of other balls are not limited.
2. Before hitting the ball, you must specify the ball and the designated bag.
3. Whoever scores the 10th goal wins.
Because there is one more ball, the probability of directly scoring the 10th ball at tee time is very small, and the ball and bag must be specified first, so the difficulty is much higher than that of the 9-ball competition, which is a new project with great development potential.
Folding Chinese 8-ball
A billiards game mainly popular in China. At first, it was only popular among the people, and it was called "Chinese Eight Balls", "Black Eight" or "Sixteen Colors". Later, it was recognized by the Chinese billiards association and held an official competition. On March 15th, 2012, the Small Ball Sports Management Center of the State Sports General Administration of China was renamed as "Chinese Billiards" because of the confusion in the name of "8-ball" in China. On June 13th, 2014, China Billiards Association renamed this billiards style again and changed it to "China Pool".
Because the name of "Chinese Billiards" is too general and changes frequently, people still agree to call the sport "Chinese Eight Ball".
The title of "Chinese Eight Ball" began with the predecessor of "Qiao’s Cup" Chinese Eight-Ball International Masters Competition -2006 "Qiao’s Cup" Chinese Eight-Ball Ranking Competition.
Fold 235
235 is a game invented by Taiwan Province players themselves. Use cue ball, No.1 ball (yellow), No.3 ball (red) and No.11 ball (red) in fancy billiards.
The simple rules are as follows:
1. The cue ball must first touch a yellow ball and a red ball, which is called 2 points.
2. After that, touch two red balls, which is called 3 points.
3, finally touch all the balls (two red and one yellow), which is called 5 points.
Every time you complete a 2-3-5 cycle, you get one point, and then continue to the next cycle.
Although 235 is not a formal competition event, it is of great help to improve the fineness of cue ball, so many professional players often use 235 as a practice event.
Fold and edit this paragraph of English billiards
English Billiards is a kind of snooker with the concept of Kailun billiards. It uses a white cue ball, a yellow cue ball and a red cue ball. It is mainly popular in Britain and Southeast Asian countries. Since the Asian Games in 1998, it has also become an official event of the Games.
The scoring methods of English billiards are:
1. The cue ball collides with another cue ball and the red ball successively, regardless of the order: 2 points.
2. The cue ball hits the red ball and makes it into the bag: 3 points.
3. The cue ball collides with another cue ball and makes it into the bag: 2 points.
4. The cue ball goes into the bag itself after hitting his ball: hit the red ball for 3 points first; First billiards another cue ball or hit the red ball and another cue ball at the same time, score 2 points.
Fold and edit this paragraph of Russian billiards
Russian billiards is also a kind of snooker, which uses red cue balls and 15 white numbered balls. The ball is bigger and the pocket is smaller, which is the most difficult to score in all billiards sports families. It is mainly popular in the countries of the former Soviet Union and Finland.
There are many different ways to play Russian billiards, among which three kinds of competition systems are liberal, mixed and dynamic. No matter what kind of competition system is mentioned above, 15 numbered balls are arranged in a triangular box before the start of the competition. The kicker hits the cue ball placed on the service line, causing it to break the number ball pile.
No matter whether the batter scores the cue ball or the sub-ball, it counts as a score and can continue to hit the ball; Otherwise, the opponent will hit the ball. A game is won by the first player to score 8 goals, and a regular game is usually set to grab more than 7 games.
In the liberal competition system, the free kick can be used as the cue ball after kick-off, and the rest are the sub-balls. In the mixed and dynamic match system, red is the only cue ball, so after the red ball is put into the bag, it must be picked up and put back on the table, and a white ball on the table will be removed by the scorer. The difference between the two competition systems is that: the mixed team must put the cue ball back in the service court, and the next ball can only be scored if it enters the middle pocket and the far bottom pocket; The dynamic pie can put the cue ball back at any position on the table, but the next cue ball is not counted as a score.
Fold and edit this paragraph of Kailun billiards
Kailun is a billiards sport with no pockets on the table. There are many kinds of competitions in Kailun billiards, the common point of which is to hit the cue ball with a cue stick to make it roll on the billiard table and hit other balls in order to score points for a specific purpose. It is mainly popular in European countries and Japan and South Korea in Asia.
In the early days, there were four-ball competitions and three-ball competitions. Later, because of the invention of the "Saili" collision method, the three balls continued to concentrate in a small range and kept hitting scores, which created amazing high scores and lost the significance of the competition. In order to save Kailun billiards, various reform schemes came into being: one is to limit the number of shots in certain areas, such as free balls and various obstacle lines; The other is to require the cue ball or the cue ball to collide with the edge of the table (Cushion, transliteration of "star") to increase the difficulty, such as one star and the three most valued stars at present.
Folding free ball
Free ball is a common way of opening billiards competition, which uses one red ball, one yellow ball and one white ball. Both the white ball and the yellow ball are cue balls, and each side chooses one as its own cue ball. Slant lines are drawn at the four corners of the desktop, which form four triangle forbidden zones with the table edge.
The basic scoring method of free-kick competition is the same as other open billiards, which must hit the cue ball and hit the other two balls. However, in the same round of hitting, players can play sherry all the time on the table except the specific corner of the restricted area until they reach the specified score.
Free ball is the official event of the 1998 Asian Games and the 2002 Asian Games.
Fold three stars
The three-star competition uses a red ball, a yellow ball and a white ball. Both the white ball and the yellow ball are cue balls, and each side chooses one as its own cue ball. After hitting the ball, the cue ball must touch two balls, and before touching the second ball, the cue ball must touch the edge of the table at least three times.
For example:
The cue ball hits a daughter ball, goes around three stars, and then hits the second ball.
The cue ball goes around three stars and then hits two daughter balls.
The cue ball goes around one star, then around two stars and then hits the second ball.
The cue ball goes around two stars, then around one star and then hits the second ball.
Three Stars is a highly technical competition, and it is the official event of the 1998 Asian Games and the 2006 Asian Games.
Fold and edit this paragraph of bottle billiards
Bottle billiards is to put several small bottles in the center of the table, and the purpose of hitting the ball is to knock down a sufficient number of small bottles. The more popular Italian bottle billiards use the open table without pockets, while the Danish bottle billiards use the fancy table with six pockets. According to the number of bottles used, it is divided into two ways: 5 bottles and 9 bottles.
The most popular five-bottle competition is to use the open table without a pocket, which is a mainstream billiards sport in Italy and Argentina, and is also popular in Europe and Latin America.
Fold and edit this paragraph of snooker billiards
Snooker, also known as English billiards in Hong Kong, is also a kind of snooker, but because of its long history and unique status, it is generally classified as a separate category. The standard game table is 12 feet long and 6 feet wide. The balls used include 1 white cue ball, 15 red balls and 6 colored balls. If a red ball is hit and bagged, score 1 point, and the scores of colored balls bagged are yellow (2), green (3), brown (4), blue (5), pink (6) and black (7) in turn.
Before the start of the game, 15 red balls were closely arranged in the triangle frame line area, black balls were placed at the bottom foot point of the triangle frame line, pink balls were placed at the top foot point of the triangle frame line, blue balls were placed at the middle point, and yellow balls, brown balls and green balls were placed on the right, middle and left sides of the service line respectively. The kicker can put the white cue ball in any position in the semi-circular service area, and should hit the cue ball when kicking off, so that it will knock off the red ball pile. At the beginning, the goal-scoring sequence is one red ball first, and then one color ball. The red ball is not retrieved, but the color ball is retrieved and placed in the initial position before tee-off. When the last red ball falls into the bag and the next colored ball is played, the ball should be hit into the bag one by one in the order of yellow, green, brown, blue, pink and black, and it will not be retrieved. At the end, the one with the higher score will win.
Snooker is popular in Britain, Ireland, Canada, Malaysia, Australia, India and other Commonwealth countries as well as Hongkong, and was once popular in Taiwan Province. In recent ten years, snooker has been popularized in East Asia. At present, excellent players have emerged in Thailand and China.
If the above scoring methods occur at the same time, they can be combined.

16, bag mouth ball:
(1) If the ball falls into the bag without being hit or touched by other balls at the edge of the bag, and it has nothing to do with any hitting behavior in the process, the target ball should be put back in its original position, and the score already obtained should be calculated.

A) In case of no foul, all the balls should be put back to their original positions, and the stroke should be repeated, or the same batter can make another stroke at will.
B) If a foul occurs, the batter shall be punished according to the regulations, all the balls shall be put back in their original positions, and the next player may choose according to the usual foul.
