In GTA San Andreas, the player can meet up a person who is holding a [[Pool Cue|pool cue]] and challenge him. The maximum wager is $1000. The player then begins to play pool with him, and if either colored balls or striped balls gets into the hole, then the challenger will either get striped or colored balls. If either player accidentally pockets the wrong cue, either player will lose a turn and then the player (who didn't pocketed the wrong cue) can move the white cue into the designated cue. If the player pockets most of his colored balls, which the object tells him/her to do so, will not be able to win by pocketing the 8-Ball. If the player pockets the 8-Ball, CJ wins some money. If the opponent wins, CJ loses the game and the money that the player waged. If you decide to quit you get to keep the pool stick for a weapon for yourself.

If playing another player with the second controller connected, they can compete against each other, except that money is not wagered.
