What is 7-ball?

7-ball is a pool game that is played with seven object balls and a cue ball. The game is usually played on a seven-foot table, although it can also be played on a nine-foot table.

The objective of the game is to pocket all of the object balls in numerical order, starting with the lowest-numbered ball and ending with the highest-numbered ball. The player who pockets the final ball wins the game.

In 7-ball, players alternate turns and are required to call their shots before taking them. If a player fails to pocket a called ball, or pockets a ball out of order, they lose their turn.

Like other pool games, 7-ball requires skill and strategy, including knowledge of angles, ball speed, and spin. It is a popular game among pool enthusiasts and is often played in tournaments.
