Question

In pool, if you make your opponets ball first and then your object ball do you get to shoot again?

Answer 1

As long as you hit your ball first the opponents ball can go in first and you keep shooting if one of your balls drops into a pocket. Yes, you keep shooting. This is assuming you are playing "slop" pool.

And if you aren't playing "slop", and you call your shot, you still keep shooting.

Answer 2

No, this actually awards your opponent 2 shots.

Answer 3

Better go with the good hit answers for this one if your on a 5--11-6 you hit the 5 first and call and make the 6 the 11 going first would not matter

Answer 5

no..coz the wrong ball was potted

Answer 6

As long as your ball goes in and you hit it first.....you keep shooting.....this would be under normal BCA rules.....but if you are just shooting around.....you need to set the rules or for that matter always know the rules at the tournament you are at.....if just playing for "fun".....then why get worked up.....if he gets upset and declares it illegal.....let him have it and go on........normal common rules.....as long as you hit your ball first you can keep shooting.......good luck!

Answer 7

No, your ball must go in first.
