SPC Games is India’s first online gaming platform for aficionados of 8-ball-Pool. You can enjoy the 8-ball-pool game from within the comforts and confines of your home. You can play for both virtual coins or real money coins depending on your choice.
The game is played with one cue ball and 15 numbered object balls.
The balls are racked in a triangle at the foot of the table with the 8-ball in the center of the triangle, the first ball of the rack on the footspot, a stripe ball in one corner of the rack and a solid ball in the other corner
The object of the game is to make one group of numbered object balls, either stripes or solids, and then legally pocket all the balls of your group. Thereafter, you need to LEGALLY POCKET THE 8-BALL to win the game.
1. START WITH THE BREAK
If a single solid or single striped ball is potted, the breaker is then either solids or stripes, depending on which ball was potted. If an equal number of stripes and solids are potted, then the table is still “open” and the player can shoot at any ball. If no balls are potted, the table is open, and it is the next player’s turn.
2. As long as a player keeps potting balls, he/she continues their turn. If a player misses, or fails to call their shot, it is the next player's turn.
3. Pot all of the designated balls, and then lastly shoot at the 8-ball to pocket it and secure a win.
To call a pocket all you need to do is click the pocket you want to pot the ball into. Some of the mid-ranked tables require you to call the pocket on the 8 Ball and the higher rank tables require you to call a pocket for every ball.
