According to what I found, Morgan Earp did not die on a pool table as presented in the movies. He was shot and mortally wounded while playing either pool or billiards, and he was taken to the parlor where he died. There are many legends associated with Tombstone, AZ in the 1880's, and not all of them are true. *I am adding that the pool table can be found at the Bird Cage Theater in Tombstone, AZ.
The farther that a ball has to travel, the more accurate the shot has must be to be successful. A ball that is within inches of a pocket is difficult to miss on any table. On a 7 foot table, the long shots may have to travel 78 inches. On a 9 foot table, this moves up to 99 inches. A slightly bad long shot that still makes it in the pocket on a 7 foot table will miss the pocket by a lot on a 9 foot table. This is because the farther you get from the point of contact, the more accurate you have to be to make the same shot.
it all depends on what rules you are playing by. but no one should tell the person what or how to shoot once they are at the table to make a shot
The white balls are at maximum distance and maximum angle apart in the break shot of a game of pool or billiards, where one ball is placed at the far end of the table and the cue ball is placed at one end of the table for the break shot.
One name is a scoop shot, which is a foul.
For the best Kick Pool Shot, first plan the cushion you will bounce from to kick the pool shot right atop the object ball.
only if you shot 1 ball inside and you get 2 free shot
If the black 8 ball is the object ball and a foul occurs during the shot, the game is over. This foul is loss of game.
In platform tennis and racquetball, players can use the law of reflection to predict how the ball will bounce off the court walls, helping them anticipate its trajectory for better positioning and shot selection. In pool, players can use the law of reflection to calculate angles and rebounds off the pool table cushions, aiding in strategic shot-making and improving overall accuracy.
Scoring is not an issue in pool, therefore there is no "highest" break. In that particular form of billiards, the break is the action of taking the first shot and splitting up the racked bals. You may be confused with snooker: in this, the highest break possible is 147 points (all reds with blacks, then all colours).
If you're talking about the game of pool - and you pot a 'spot' and a 'stripe' ball off the break - you have a choice of which to go for next. Most people who do this off the break choose whichever set of balls are in the best position to clear the table.
