Red ball counts double throughout the game. White balls count according to marked score. If both balls are holed from break position, or if all balls are holed during game, break is continued from break position as at start of game. At any time during a game, if a player shall hole both the red and white ball from break position 3 times consecutively into any holes, he shall at his fourth stroke from break position be barred from holing more than one ball. If no balls are potted a break is finished.
Next player takes new ball from the ball rack.
Break continues until player ceases to score or makes a foul shot. Any ball returning over baulk line or into 'D'. Any ball mounting a cushion or falling off table. If, however, a white skittle is knocked down and a ball then knocks the black skittle down, only the white skittle penalty shall be paid. After the bar has dropped the game shall be continued in the same manner as before the drop of the bar, with the exception of the last ball.
