3-Ball Pool Game & Tournament Instructions
3-Ball Pool Game & Tournament Instructions
3-Ball
is a FUN and FAST
group pool game. It's the perfect game when there are many
players
and only one pool table to play on.
A fun family game for Home Game Rooms. Great for parties,
tournaments or charity events.
The perfect practice or warm-up game and
an easy teaching game.
Feel free to print these instructions.
You may know of (or can find) other game variations you prefer
to use.
Just remember to announce
the game specifics to all players in the group before play begins.
*Don't forget to click our link below to
learn more about the 3-Ball Rack.
3-ball is played using a point scoring system to determine the
winner.
The object of the game is to break and pocket three object balls (in no
particular order) in the least
amount of shots committing the least amount of fouls.
Balls Used: Three standard (2¼“)
pool object balls and the cue ball
Game Rack: 3-Ball Rack (used to align the three object balls)
The game begins by placing any three
object balls into the 3-Ball Rack. Position the rack
(as you would for 8-ball or 9-ball pool) so that the lead object ball
rests on the foot spot of the pool table.
With the three balls pressed forward and touching each other, simply slide
the 3-Ball Rack forward and
lift to remove.
The first player in the group positions the cue ball anywhere behind the
head string of the pool table
(known as the kitchen) for the break. That player breaks and continues to
shoot until all three object
balls are pocketed. The number of shots that player took to pocket all
three object balls
(including FOUL points as explained below) is that players score for their
inning played.
A new rack of three object balls is positioned for the next player in the
group and play continues in the
same manner. At the end of all innings, when each player in the group has
played out their individual
rack of three object balls, the player with the lowest score is the
winner.
Rules
It is not necessary to call
pockets, balls, combination or bank shots.
The cue ball must cross the head string to count as a legal break.
No balls need to contact a rail on the table to constitute a legal shot or
break.
One Tie - All
Tie
In the event of a tie, where any
two players have the same score, another inning for the entire group
shall be played to determine a winner. The group may also allow only tied
players to repeat innings
to determine a winner. The group however must agree to this rule change
before play begins.
Scoring
Break:
With or without any or all object balls hit / pocketed counts as one (1)
point. If the object balls
are missed during a legal break, the cue ball is played from the spot
where it stops moving. It is not
reset behind the head string for another break attempt.
Shots:
Each shot taken after the break counts as one (1) point.
Fouls:
A foul of any kind counts as
an additional point added to the players score.
The following are examples of common fouls.
Scratch:
Pocketing the cue ball or knocking it off the pool table.
Example: A player breaks and pockets all three object balls but knocks the
cue ball off the table.
The score is two (2) points. One point for the shot and one point for the
foul.
Resetting the
Cue ball: If the cue ball is
pocketed or knocked off the pool table and needs to be reset,
it is placed anywhere behind the head string and play continues.
Double Hit:
On the cue ball with the cue stick. One point for the shot and one point
for the foul.
Moving A Ball: By hand or with the
butt of the cue stick. One point for the shot and one point for the foul.
Knocking an Object Ball Off the Pool Table:
The player does not receive a foul point for knocking
an object ball off the pool table, as it will require at least one more
shot to finish their rack once the object ball is reset on the table.
Resetting the
Object Ball: The object ball is
returned to the table and placed on the foot spot or directly behind it if
there is another object ball resting on that spot. If more than one
object ball is to be reset, they are to be lined up with the first ball on
the foot spot and the remaining balls placed directly behind it.
The cue ball is played from the spot where it has stopped moving.
Tournament Play
3
Innings – Each player will shoot
three (3) innings (also known as a "Round").
A player’s combined score from each inning played is their Total Round
Score.
A Three-Ball pool
tournament can consist of one (1) round of three (3) innings per player.
It can also be spread out over many rounds and many weeks of play.
The tournament
winner is the player with the lowest Total Round Score at the end of the
tournament.
Order of Play – (for all innings)
shall be in order of sign-up. This makes score keeping easier.
Five Shots
– To conserve time allowing
everyone to play, five shots per inning is the limit.
A player that does not pocket the three object balls in five (5) shots
shall receive a five (5) as their
score for that inning.
Racking
– Using the 3-Ball Rack to insure a consistent and fair alignment of the
three object balls,
each player will rack for the next player in the game.

learn more about the 3-Ball Rack.
Tournament Tie
– In the event of a tournament tie, those players with a tie score shall
play a
Tie Breaker round (of three (3) innings) to determine the winner. As this
is a process of elimination,
only players with tied scores will continue on with Tie Breaker rounds
until one player wins the
tournament with the lowest score at the end of a round.
Money Game
Players pay a
predetermined "Ante" prior to the start of the game. This will be the
"Prize Money"
for the game winner. One (1) round consisting of one (1) inning per
player is played. The player with
the lowest score at the end of the round is the game winner.
One Tie All Tie – In the event of
a tie, where any two players have the same score, another round for
the entire group shall be played to determine a winner. Players will pay
the predetermined "Ante" at the beginning of each additional round. The
"Prize Pot" continues to grow until the player with the lowest
score at the end of a round wins it.
Keep The Game Fair For Everyone!
Whether playing for fun or
practice, participating in a tournament or money game, organizing a
charity event or just getting together with friends, If you're going to play
3-ball pool, insist on using
