This trophy requires
thousands of matches (depending on your skills) if done legitimately. Luckily, it can also be 100% boosted. To do so you need to unlock the Pro League as no one plays it and it has the highest bets. This league can be unlocked legitimately by winning a total of 10,000 HKC or through private lobbies (only if you own at least one DLC).
Now make sure you meet the following requirements before starting the actual boost:
- You have a reliable partner (use Gaming Sessions to find one).
- You both have the Pro League unlocked.
- You and your partner have at least a total of 30,000 HKC (if you want to boost in 10,000 HKC 8-ball matches).
- You and your partner have at least a total of 60,000 HKC (if you want to boost in 20,000 HKC snooker matches).
- One of you have 2/3 of the money and the other 1/3.
Okay, now that you've meet the requirements you can go ahead and start boosting. The person with 2/3 of the money will always be the loser and will have to quit after the first shot has been done (if you quit before taking at least a shot the match will not count toward the trophy requirement). This method will take exactly 2,000 matches if you play 8-ball and 1,000 matches if you play snooker.

Every time a new patch gets released the requirements to reach the Pro league are changed. It used to be 1,000,000 HKC but now luckily you only need to earn a total of 10,000 HKC to achieve this trophy. Unlocking this league is really important as it gives you the opportunity to play in 10,000 HKC (8-ball) matches or 20,000 HKC (Snooker) matches matches, which are going to be useful for
Hustle King!.

In Hustle Kings you can buy ball-sets and cues. These don't give you anything more than a good looking item. That's why it's recommended that you wait until you achieve all other trophies to get this. The cheapest cue is 25,000 HKC and the cheapest ball-set is 50,000 HKC.

This is going to be the hardest trophy in the game. You need to be lucky enough to get 5 easy challenges in five consecutive days. You might achieve this while working on
Daily Challenge King but if you've already earned all other trophies (or you have a lot of HKC) and you still need this trophy you should buy chalks from the in-game store to make this trophy a lot easier.

This trophy can be really frustrating to achieve legitimately as you might need hundreds of matches to even have a chance at this (it will look like a "chain" with 4 or more balls one after the other). Luckily, if you have a boosting partner or the Exhibition DLC you can place all of the balls next to each other to create a chain. The following video will shows you how to set up a simple chain.

Although you need to win only one game in Career mode, it's advised that you complete at least the first two divisions. This is because the A.I. in this game is ridiculously good and playing a few more matches against them will teach you a few tricks that will make your life easier.

Daily challenges are an easy way to get money at the start of your Hustle King journey. There are 3 types of challenges:
- Puzzle shots: These are the hardest challenges, as most of them require a lot of experience with the in-game mechanics (ex. pot all balls in a specific order in less than 5 shots).
- Trickshots: Most of them are pretty easy but some might give you some trouble (ex. pot 2 ball in one shot).
- Bonus matches: The easiest challenges you can hope to play (ex. pot all balls in less than 18 shots).
The problem with challenges is that you can try each of them only 5 times and if you fail you'll have to wait for the next challenge. It's strongly recommended that you buy the Puzzle Pack DLC as it includes all of the daily challenges from past months and will help you with future ones. If you have a lot of HKC you can buy chalks and tokens to make this trophy easier to achieve.

Each League has one 8-player tournament and one 16-player special event (available once every two days). It's recommended that you play in the tournament of the 1st League since the ticket is only 2,000 HKC. This trophy can be boosted but it's advised that you try to do this on your own unless you are really struggling with it.
