The term 'poolroom item' can refer to two items commonly found in a poolroom: a RACK and an eightball. A RACK is a device used to arrange billiard balls into a triangle shape at the start of a game. It typically consists of a frame with six pockets, and is usually made of wood or plastic. An eightball is a type of billiard ball that is black with a white dot on it. It is the last ball to be pocketed in a game of pool, and is also known as the 'money ball'.
