No, in 8 ball and straight pool there are fifteen numbered balls plus the cue ball.
The lowest numbered ball in pool is the 1 ball. Pool does not assign points to the balls, so they are all of equal value.
In 8 ball pool there are 16 balls on the table, a cue ball, 8 ball, 7 solids and 7 stripes although they could be red and yellow etc. In 9 ball there are 10 balls on the table, cue ball, 1-7 solid, 8 ball and striped 9 ball.
depends on the game, most common are 8-ball in which there are 15.one player plays1-7, the other plays 9-15,then the 8. the other is 9-ball in which there 9. In 9 ball pool you hit the nine ball in last.10 or 16. The three most common pool games are 8 Ball, 9 Ball and Straight Pool. Both 8 Ball and Straight Pool use 15 numbered balls and the cue ball. In 9 Ball, only the first 9 numbered balls are used plus the cue ball.
The Cue Ball is less weight than the Colored Balls.
There are 8 coloured balls in a standard game of pool (the 1 through 7 and the 8 ball), and there are 7 striped balls. That sums to 15 balls.
This is not possible in any common game of pool. Only Straight Pool allows the balls to be placed in nearly any position to accomplish this - no other common pool game allows placing the balls in that order. The middle of the rack is in between the second and third row of balls. It appears what is being asked is what ball will be in the 5th ball position, with one ball to left and one ball to the right if all the balls are arranged lowest to highest. This would be the 5 ball. However, Straight Pool requires that the 1 ball and the 5 ball be placed in the corners. Therefore, no pool game allows the balls to be placed in the way required - so, any ball may be in the "middle" position depending upon the game of pool being played.
So you can tell which is the cue ball
8 ball pool, 7 solid, 7 stripes the 8ball and the cue ball. So 16.
All pool games require that certain balls be identified. If you chose to use a custom set of pool balls with only the markings necessary for a particular game, it would not be contrary to the regulations to do so.
you have to use a pool stick and 10 or 16 balls counting the cue ball
The fifth ball in a pool ball triangle will dpend upon the game being played. In Straight Pool, it can be any of 13 different balls. Only the 1 and the 5 cannot be located there. In 8 Ball, the 5th ball must be the 8 ball.
