In this next clip I'm going to talk about different fouls in Nine Ball. Okay we talked about fouls on a break, but let?s talk about fouls on a shot after the break. You can definitely foul by scratching the cue ball. You could also jump the cue ball off the table on a regular shot just as in breaks, but also there might be a foul committed if you don't hit the right object ball first. Now if any of these fouls should occur you automatically lose your turn and your opponent gets ball in hand to put the cue ball anywhere he wants on the table. If a player should happen to commit more than one foul on a specific shot, like in one shot, you can maybe hit the wrong ball, jump the cue ball off the table and it would be more than one foul, but you only get penalized for the one foul. But remember if you do foul on a shot any balls that go down stay down, and if it is the nine, except for the nine. If the nine goes down on an illegal shot it comes up and gets spotted on the far rail from the break. So that's it, those are your different types of fouls. Let me show you the scenarios right here on the table.
