"Hi, this is Mike Lopez with Expert Village. Now, we're going to discuss the ways to win at nine ball. There are four ways to win at nine ball. The first and easiest way is when there is only the nine ball on the table, and all you have to do is shoot the nine ball in a pocket that you call. And just the nine ball. Nine ball, side pocket. The second way is a combination. A combination shot is when you drive an object ball, as in nine ball, the lowest object ball on the table into the nine, and the nine ball is pocketed. Like so. A carom is a shot in which you drive the cue ball to the object ball, or in nine ball, the lowest object ball on the table, and then you pocket the nine ball with the cue ball and not the one, as such. The fourth and probably the most dramatic and fabulous way to win at nine ball, is to shoot your break shot and have the nine ball fall into a hole without scratching on the break. This way it happens and it's seen as a matter of luck, but if the balls spread right, and you have a good enough shooter, it can be duplicated a few times in any given day."
