    The cue ball is the same size or larger than the other 15 balls. The larger ball is sometimes referred to as a "lead ball" because it's awkward to use and doesn't pick up as much spin. Most bars have the same size cue ball that has metal inside the ball and a magnet inside the table to separate it form the other balls. This usually applies to coin-op machines only because the pros use 9-foot tables generally that don't have a return mechanism, and use top-notch Aramith balls.

    It's a bit smaller than the other balls and can fit down a hole that leads to its end of the table. The other balls pass right over the hole.
