TARGET
The TARGET is always a red ball first, (Over your name, you can see which TARGET you have to play) then a color, then a red, etc., until all the red balls are pocketed. Then, your TARGETS are the colored balls by order of their value. (yellow, green, brown, blue, pink and black ball. See below for details about the scoring system for each ball.)
Note: When you pocket a colored TARGET ball, that ball is returned to it's initial position on the table, until all the red balls are pocketed.
OBJECT
Shoot your Cue Ball and pocket one of your TARGET balls on the table (besides the Cue Ball), without commiting a FOUL SHOT.
If you do not pocket any of your TARGET balls, you will lose your turn. If you commit a FOUL SHOT, you will lose your turn and your opponent gets a FREE BALL. Your opponent may then place the Cue Ball anywhere behind the white start line.
FOUL SHOT
It is a FOUL SHOT if:
- The Cue Ball is pocketed.
- The Cue Ball does not hit any of your TARGET balls, or hits a NO TARGET ball first.

Note: When you commit a FOUL SHOT or pocket a NO TARGET ball, your opponent receives points equal to the value of the NO TARGET ball. (See below for details about the scoring system for each ball.)
Note: If you commit a FOUL SHOT, your opponent has the option to play or pass his/her turn. (F6 key to pass turn) But, if the cue ball is pocketed and you move the white ball, you can not pass your turn.
SCORING
Each time you pocket a TARGET ball without commiting a FOUL SHOT, you will get points equal to the value of the ball pocketed added to your score.
Red = 1 Point
Yellow = 2 Points
Green = 3 Points
Brown = 4 Points
Blue = 5 Points
Pink = 6 Points
Black = 7 Points
TO WIN

You must have the highest score when the last ball is pocketed.
Note: It does not matter who pockets the last ball, unless the last ball pocketed "ties" the score. If this happens, the Black ball will return to it's initial position on the table. Then, it will be the player's turn who pocketed the last ball. The game will continue until the Black ball is pocketed.
