One Player Pool Games
Though pool requires strategic thinking and concentration, it doesn't always require at least two players to play. Many pool games enable a single player to test his billiards skills, either on an actual pool table or online. Some of these one-player pool games are just as challenging, even without other players.

One pocket pool is a one-player game that sounds simple. This game, played on a traditional pool table, involves choosing one pocket in which to sink balls.

Sinking balls in numerical order adds to the challenging nature of this single-player game.
