Common misconceptions
General
Lagging for break
ball will be behind the head string but near the head string
8-Ball
Sinking the eight on the break is not a win. See rules.
When the table is “open”, any object ball may be struck first except the eight ball.
The shooter loses if he
(a) fouls when pocketing the eight ball;
(b) pockets the eight ball before his group is cleared;
(c) pockets the eight ball in an uncalled pocket; or
(d) drives the eight ball off the table.
These do not apply to the break shot.
No Rail after Contact
If no ball is pocketed on a shot, the cue ball must contact an object ball, and after that contact at least one ball (cue ball or any object ball) must be driven to a rail, or the shot is a foul.
9-Ball
all shots, including the break, must first strike the lowest numbered ball on the table
