About Pool Club
Pool Club is a free online billiards game from RavalMatic that challenges you to pocket all 15 balls on an eight-ball table before a 90-second timer runs out. You aim your shot, drag back on the cue stick, and release to strike, sending the cue ball into the object balls to knock them into one of the table's six pockets. Your opening shot must scatter the rack, known as the break shot, after which you keep firing at solid and striped balls to rack up points, earning +50 points and +5 bonus seconds for every ball you pocket while losing 20 points if you accidentally sink the cue ball.
Pool Club runs entirely in your browser with no download or install needed, using intuitive drag-and-drop aiming on desktop and touch controls on mobile. The tight time limit turns a normally slow, methodical game of pool into a fast-paced scoring challenge, rewarding players who can plan their shots quickly and keep pocketing balls back to back without wasting precious seconds lining up a difficult angle.

The Break Shot
Every session of Pool Club begins the same way: select the cue ball, drag your cue stick back, and release to fire it into the tightly packed rack. This opening strike, called the break shot in billiards terminology, scatters the solid and striped balls across the table and sets up the rest of the session. After the break, you can no longer hit an object ball directly, only the cue ball, which then needs to connect with your target ball to knock it toward a pocket.
Pocketing Object Balls Under Pressure
With 90 seconds on the clock, every pocketed ball matters. Successfully sinking an object ball earns you +50 points and adds +5 seconds back onto your timer, giving skilled players a way to extend their run by chaining shots together. Sinking the cue ball is the one mistake to avoid at all costs, since it costs you 20 points and wastes a shot you could have used to score instead.
Tips for Winning at Pool Club
Prioritize the easiest, most direct shots first to build up bonus seconds early, since every pocketed ball buys you more time for the trickier shots later. Line up your cue stick carefully before dragging, since a rushed shot is more likely to miss the pocket or, worse, sink the cue ball. Once you're comfortable with straight shots, look for opportunities to pocket two balls in quick succession by lining up angles during the break.
