If the fifteenth ball interferes with the rack it is spotted on the break end of the table. If the cue ball interferes with the rack, then the breaker has ball-in-hand behind the kitchen line. Object of Straight Pool To reach a point score agreed to at the start of the match - score more points that your opponent, such as 25, 50, 100. Each ball pocketed is worth one point. A turn continues until the player misses, commits a foul, or wins the game. Winning the Game Straight pool The player that reaches the agreed point score first.
