The Rocket balls Runout format entails each player breaking a 9-ball rack, containing four stripes, four solids, and the 8-ball. After the break, with the ball in hand, the player has to run out either stripes or solids in order, from lowest to highest, and then, drop the 8-ball. The player receives 1 point per solid or stripe that they sink and 6 points for the 8-ball; thus, 10 points overall per rack.
