Make sure you are familiar with the rules of bar pool before you play. Learn about the 8-ball, Rotation, Double tapping, and Assigning solids or stripes. This will ensure everyone enjoys the game. You will also be able to win if you are familiar with how to play 8-ball.
8-ball
The rules for eight-ball pool are different from those used in professional pool games. These rules are not intended for professionals, but the average player. These rules won't force you to learn 15 pages of complicated rules just to play a particular game. Instead, they will help you understand the basic pool game.
It is prohibited to use color-based racks in eight-ball games. In this version of the game, the 8 ball must be the frontmost of the center three balls. However, most people choose to put the one in front. You lose a turn if you throw a wrong ball. It is not necessary to call straight-in shots, or touch a rail while taking a shot.

Double tapping
Double tapping in barpool rules refers the ability of a player to double-tap on an objectball by positioning the cueball near the object ball, and then aiming at the object. A cueball is within an inch of an object ball if it is less than 12 inch. It is also known "sharking."
Assigning solids or stripes
A common way to define the style of a game is to assign solids and stripes to bar pool rules. Solids and strips are two types of pool game. To call the majority of shots in a game with 8 balls, players use a cueball.
Official pool rules also prohibit hitting opponent's objectball first. The player who pockets a striped ball ends their turn. A double hit is also when the player hits the cue balls twice in one stroke. This is called a foul.
Etiquette
There are many rules that apply to pool playing at a pub. Every bar has a different set of rules so be sure to ask before you start playing. Ask if there will be any special rules for the next game. If any rules are in effect, you need to be respectful of them and adhere to them. So everyone can have fun playing the game without causing harm.

It is important to keep in mind that WPA "official rules", do not include "dirty pools." Smart pool refers only to shots that are not dirty. However, some people consider defensive shots dirty. People also view shots that are deliberately scratched as unethical.
