If someone scratches, and the balls are available, each other player may take one of their pocketed balls and return it to the table. These balls are placed on the head-spot, forming a line toward the end of the table when multiple balls are involved.
When a player has no balls of their set left on the table, their turn is skipped. They are out of the game, unless another player scratches and one of their balls is returned to the table. Unlike cutthroat, Three Ball works well with any number of players.
An order is decided beforehand — we usually write numbers on scraps of paper and draw. Turns are taken with only one person playing at the table at a time, until they are done. Three balls are racked in a triangle at the head-spot and broken.
The count is then at one. Shots are then made until all the balls are pocketed, with each shot adding one to the count. If no balls were made on the break, for instance, and one ball was pocketed each shot after with no misses, the final count would be four one for the break, and one for each ball. Scratches add one to the count, along with one for the shot itself — after the scratch, the cue ball is played from the kitchen.
After the first person pockets all three balls, play is repeated for the next person, and so on until everyone has had a turn at the table. The winner is the player who, after everyone has had a turn at the table, has the lowest final count.
In the case of a tie, everyone is considered tied for the round. The counts for that round are forgotten, and a new round is played until a round is finished with a sole winner.
Three ball is a great group game. For one, any number of players can join in. Several times we have started a game with only three people and, before long, ended up with over ten simply by attracting people who happened to be walking by.
Even with that many people, play is fast, and everyone can get to the table in a timely manner. It is also a very economy-friendly game, as five people can each have a turn in a round using only a single rack of balls. Scotch doubles eight ball or nine ball As in a standard doubles game, two teams are formed before the start of the game.
