If someone in a game of straight pool hits another person's ball and then hits the eight ball into the pocket, they do not win the game.

What order do you pot ball in pool?

That depends on which pool game you're playing. In 8-ball, you choose either the solid balls or the stripe balls and must pot those before attempting the 8-ball for the win. In 9-ball, you must pocket the balls in numerical order starting with the lowest numbered ball--potting the 9-ball on a legal shot wins the game. In 14.1, you shoot at anything. In one-pocket, when playing without handicaps, you shoot for any ball and the first player to make 8 balls in his/her designated pocket wins.
