In order to know that the billiard set thus configured is suitable for playing by three players, the outline of the play will be described below.

(1) At the start of play, the balls 1a to 3e are arranged in an equilateral triangle at the foot points of the billiard table 5 as in the case of the conventional eight ball set (see FIG. 4). The fifth ball 1 placed at the center
The twelve balls around e, 2e, and 3e alternately arrange balls of different colors (for example, red → blue → yellow →
red···).

(2) Although not shown, from among the players A, B, and C, for example, the player A makes a break shot via the handball (white ball) 4 and
It is assumed that the third ball 1c in the sphere group 1 having the color of. At this time, the ball owned by the player A becomes the sphere group 1 of the first color.

(3) Next, assuming that the player B has shot and the third ball 2c in the sphere group 2 of the second color has dropped, the ball held by the player B becomes the sphere group 2 of the second color. . At this time, the ball possessed by the player C necessarily becomes the sphere group 3 of the third color.

(4) Thereafter, each of the players A to C concentrates on dropping the first to fourth balls of the group of spheres, which are the balls possessed by each player, through the ball 4. The falling ball may be dropped from any of the first to fourth balls. At this time, even if the ball of the sphere group which is the ball of another player is dropped, it does not become a foul. However, if your balls do not drop together, the order of play will move to the next player.

(5) After dropping the first to fourth balls in the group of spheres, which is the player's own ball, the fifth ball in the group of spheres, which is the player's own ball, is first used here. The right to drop occurs.

(6) The player who has dropped all of the first to fifth balls of the sphere group, which is his own ball, designates the fifth ball of one of the other two players. Then, a shot is performed by designating a pocket to be dropped (not shown) (call shot). Here, when the fifth ball of another player specified in the specified pocket can be dropped, a game set is established.

The billiard set according to the present invention is generally used and played as described above. Next, a more detailed example as shown in FIG. 5 will be described.

(1) On the billiard table 5, the second ball 2b and the fifth ball 2e in the sphere group 2 of the second color, and the fifth ball 3e in the sphere group 3 of the third color.
It is assumed that a total of three balls are left. Then, it is the player A who has the ball group 1 of the first color and has a ball.

(2) Since player A has dropped all his balls, player A's fifth ball 2e
Alternatively, the player C has the right to aim at the fifth ball 3e. Therefore, the player A calls the "fifth ball 2e in the sphere group 2 of the second color", calls the pocket to be dropped, and makes a shot. At this time, it does not matter which ball the hit ball 4 hits, but if the fifth ball 2e that has been called anyway can be dropped into the called pocket, a game set is formed.

(3) In this case, the player A has a score of 3 points, the player B who has dropped the fifth ball 2e has a score of 0 points, and the player C has a score of 1 point, and the play is newly restarted.

Next, the foul and penalty will be described.

(1) If the ball 4 does not hit any of the balls, it is determined as a foul. The penalty returns one of the balls No. 1 to No. 4 of the balls already dropped to one foot point, and the order of play moves to the next player. The ball 4 shoots from the stop position without moving.

(2) In the scene where it should not be dropped yet,
If the ball is dropped, it is considered a foul. The penalty is to return the dropped No. 5 ball to the center point, and then return any of the balls No. 1 to No. 4 already dropped to one foot point. Move on to next player. Marble 4
Does not move, but shoots from the stop position.

(3) If the bean ball 4 is dropped, it is regarded as a foul. The penalty returns one of the balls No. 1 to No. 4 of the balls already dropped to one foot point, and the order of play moves to the next player. The bead 4 is shot at a desired position in the area inside the headline.

(4) If the fifth ball is dropped into a pocket other than the designated pocket during a call shot, or if a ball other than the designated fifth ball is dropped, a foul It is said. The penalty returns the dropped fifth ball to the foot point, and the order of play moves to the next player. Marble 4
Shot from the same position without moving.

(5) If the player who has already dropped the fifth ball of his ball has committed a foul thereafter, the fifth ball of his ball which has already been dropped to the foot point is returned. Becomes

By playing in this manner,
Conventionally, it was difficult to perform with the eight ball play method 3
You can play people smoothly, and you can enjoy the thrill of dropping the balls of each player's ball group faster than other players.
You can enjoy the thrill of aiming for other players' balls.

In addition, since each player's ball is a ball of a group of spheres of different colors, there are effects such as excellent visibility during play, colorful game development, and excellent aesthetics during play. Having.

Next, a two-player game is possible, and an outline of the play in this case will be described.

(1) As in the case of three-player play, at the start of play, balls 1a to 3e are arranged in a regular triangle at the foot points of the billiard table 5. The twelve balls around the fifth ball 1e, 2e, 3e placed at the center alternately arrange balls of different colors (for example, red → blue → yellow → red...). However, in this case, the player performing the break shot is the player A and the balls 1a to 1 in the sphere group 1 of the first color.
It is necessary for the player B to determine in advance that the balls 2a to 2e in the ball group 2 of the second color are possessed balls.

(2) The target ball to which the handball 4 first hits may be any ball. Also in this case, the player A concentrates on quickly dropping the first to fourth balls 1a to 1d in the sphere group 1 of the first color, which is the possessed ball, and the player B has the second ball, the possessed ball. Sphere group 2
In the first to fourth balls 2a to 2d. However, the order of dropping may be from any ball.

(3) Next, if all the balls 1a to 1d or 2a to 2d of one's own ball are dropped, the right to drop the opponent's fifth ball is generated. During the play, each ball 3a in the sphere group 3 of the third color
3e is a foul ball, and if it is dropped, a penalty is imposed. Also, even if you drop your opponent's ball, you do not become a foul, but if your ball does not drop together, the order of play moves to the next player.

Next, a foul and a penalty in this play will be described.
