Step 2. You need to choose which player will open the game

To do this you can throw a coin, roll a die, take a card from a deck, etc … The player who shoots first must hit ball number 1 using the cue ball. After taking the opening shot, the player can perform a 'push out', i.e. a regulation shot, by moving the cue ball (white ball) to the best position for him.
