Bank shots and combination shots are not considered obvious,and care should be taken in calling both the object ball and the intendedpocket. When calling the shot, it is never necessary to indicate detailssuch as the number of cushions, banks, kisses, caroms, etc. Any ballspocketed on a foul remain pocketed, regardless of whether they belongto the shooter or the opponent. The opening break is not a' called shot.' Any player performing a break shot in 8-Ball may continue to shoot solong as any object ball is legally pocketed on the break.RACKINGTHE BALLSThe balls are racked in a triangle at the foot of the table with the 8-ballin the center of the triangle, the first ball of the rack on the footspot, a stripe ball in one corner of the rack and a solid ball in theother corner.ALTERNATINGBREAKWinner of the lag has the option to break.
