Normal ball and rail foul rules apply in cribbage. This is a requirement present in most pool games that a player must contact an with the cue ball and after that contact, either pocket an object ball, or some ball including the cue ball must contact a rail. When a foul results from the cue ball into a pocket or jumping it off the table, the player has cue ball in hand from the kitchen. When a player has cue ball in hand from the kitchen and all object balls are also behind the head string in the , a player has the option of having the object ball nearest the head string relocated to the foot spot. If in this situation two or more object balls are equidistantly closest to the head string, the player may designate which ball is to be relocated.
