I`m trying to play an online game and can`t figure this out...

I have a trackball, 1 button set for single click and the other double, and when playing games like shooting pool where it calls for a right click I use command+single click.

are you sure about that Marie?
The Command key, the one with the Apple on it, does nothing for me when I hold it and click the mouse.
However, the Control key, brings up the contextual menus.

I shoot pool on a game site and to set power shot Peecee's r/click,Macs use the apple/ click to set power and shoot.

That would seem to be a program setting and not an OS X "Right Click" key combination.
I think the question was about contextual menus.

He/she said they were trying to play an online game?
There is another combination as I recall either option/click or ctrl/click for some games.

LOL, I always preface a technical conversation anymore with " go slow now, I am 70 years old. I am easily confused." Since OSX I have become lazy and just want "stuff" to work.

I found the right click keystroke in Parallels Desktop: the right apple button.
