Ten-ball is a cue sport played with ten numbered balls and a cue ball. The objective is to pocket the balls in numerical order, starting from one to ten. Players take turns, and each shot must hit the lowest-numbered ball on the table first. If a player pockets a ball, they continue their turn; if not, the opponent takes their shot. The game is typically played on a standard pool table and follows specific rules similar to nine-ball. Ten-ball is often considered more challenging due to its requirement for precise shot-making and strategic play.
