Answer:
Players may sink their last remaining group ball (or balls) and the black in the same shot and so win a frame. Initial contact, as always, must be with an 'on' ball. In this instance the player on yellows pots the final yellow ball and in the same combination shot wins the frame by potting the black ball.

What happens if you sink the 8-ball early?
Answer: Likewise, if you sink the 8 ball on the break, you don't win. You either spot the 8 ball or re-rack. Traditionally, 8 ball is a "call shot" game. That means you have to choose the pocket where you're shooting before taking your shot.

Do you lose if you sink the black ball and an opponents ball?
Answer: The shooter wins the rack if they sink the black ball, and do not commit a foul under the rules. As it is a free shot, the shooter cannot be called foul under 6.2 Wrong Ball First. They may of course shoot the cue ball into the opponent ball, so that it contacts the black ball and sinks it.

What happens if you sink the cue ball?
Answer: The phenomenon of sinking a cue ball is called a Scratch and results in a penalty, and you lose the turn to the opponent. If you pot a cue ball, the opponent gets the cue ball in hand and can place the cue ball anywhere behind the head string during their turn.
