In break and run ten ball pool, do we have to shoot the balls in order, like in nine ball?

   According to the rules of 10 ball pool, you must always contact the lowest numbered ball on the table with the cue ball first.

   The player must cause the cue ball to contact the lowest numbered object ball on the table before it strikes any other ball.

   If this does not occur, the shooting player is assessed a foul, and the inning comes to an end.

   As long as the above requirement is met, a ball is pocketed legally, and no other foul is committed, the shooting player's inning continues.
