Eight-ball pool against one real person for one buy-in each. Standard rules: the table is open after the break, the first clean pocket assigns solids and stripes, pocket your seven and then the 8 to win. Sink the 8 early, or scratch while sinking it, and you lose on the spot.
Aim by dragging on the table, set the power, and let go. The shot is simulated on our server and the same simulation plays back on your screen, so what you watch is exactly what was scored. A scratch or a wrong first contact is a foul and gives your opponent ball in hand, which they place anywhere on the cloth.
The table runs real billiard physics, so the cue ball behaves like a cue ball. Move the mark on the spin dial off centre before you shoot: high is follow and the cue ball runs on after contact, low is draw and it comes back to you, and either side is english that bends the cue ball off a cushion. A ball slides before it starts to roll, cut shots throw the object ball a touch off the aiming line, and a rail rewrites the spin that hits it.
Every shot has a clock. Let it run out and that is a foul with ball in hand for the other seat; do it three times in a row and the game is forfeited, so a walked-away seat cannot hold your money hostage.
A seat at any table needs a linked Discord account at least seven days old. Link it from your account menu; the usual buy-in caps for new accounts still apply after that.
No house draw picks the winner. The rack and who breaks come from the table's seeds, and the client seed is a public drand round drawn once both seats are paid. Each shot also plays a touch differently, as on a real table: throw, cushion grip and roll vary slightly, drawn fairly from the same seeds and replayed identically on both screens. What decides the money is the shot you choose.
What do I need to play 8-Ball Pool?
A linked Discord account at least seven days old, which you link from your account menu, and one buy-in. Tables seat one real opponent; there are no bots.
What happens if my Pool opponent stops playing?
Every shot has a clock. Letting it run out is a foul with ball in hand for the other seat, and three timeouts in a row forfeit the game, so a walked-away seat cannot hold your money hostage.
Is there any luck in 8-Ball Pool here?
Very little. Every shot plays a touch differently, as on a real table, drawn fairly from the table's seeds and the same on both screens. The rack and who breaks come from the same seeds, and what decides the money is the shot you choose.
