There are many terms you should know, depending on the pool game. These terms can help you win the game. You might be familiar with "curve shots" in Snooker. These are shots that are used to make opponents jump over cue balls. A bank shot is another term that you may be familiar with. This refers to hitting the cueball off a cushion before it contacts the object.
There are many terms in pool. The "head string" is a line that runs parallel to the head rail. The "head spot", an imaginary spot where the long string intersects, is called pool. This line is a useful pool term because it indicates where you will rack your balls in the beginning of the game.
The "head string" is not the only thing that the pool table has. It also has "stripes” and "solids." Stripes are balls that are numbered from nine to fifteen, and solids are balls that are completely colored.

A pool table can be equipped with either eight or three pockets. The object of the game is to sink all the balls in the right order. If all the balls are played in the right order, you can win the entire game in one round. If you do not play all the ball in the correct order, however, you will still be able to win the game. Before you can play each ball, you will need to call it.
Cue stick is a long, wooden stick used to hit a cue ball. The cue stick may have soft or hard tips. The cue stick is slightly larger than other balls on the table. Although the cue stick may have spots, it is generally white or blue. Chalk can also be used to ensure that the cuestick sticks to the cue ball. A sight shape is a small object that lines up your shot.
A cue stick may be a wooden stick, a rubbery stick, or a plastic stick. The ferrule, which is part of the cuestick below the tip, may be also present. The ferrule is usually hard, but you can use a soft one if you want. You might also find a scratch on a cuestick. This small object is used to sharpen the cue stick. It is used in every type of pool game.
You must also know the "shock," which refers the chemical that burns organic materials. This chemical is used in order to kill bacteria and algae. It can also be used to disinfect the water and remove haze.

The pool table also has rails, which are holes within the rails. You can use this term to refer to the long rails on the table. It can also be used to refer the the shorter rails on either side of the table.
