Scoring

The player who scores most points wins. Scoring is achieved as follows.

Cannons

A cannon is made by causing the cue ball to contact the two object balls in succession - the opponents white ball and the remaining red ball. Two points are scored from a cannon, whether it be from white to red, or red to white.

In-Offs (Losing Hazards)

An in-off is made by causing the cue ball to enter a pocket after contact with one of the two object balls. An in-off played off the red ball scores three points and an in-off played off the white ball scores two points.

Potting

A pot is made by making the cue ball contact one or other of the two object balls, causing it to enter the pocket. Potting the red ball scores three points, potting the white scores two points.

Combinations

When an in-off is combined with a cannon, the in-off shall score (additionally to the cannon)

i) three points if the red was struck first by the cue ball
ii) two points if the object white was struck first
iii) two points if both object balls were struck simultaneously

If more than one hazard or a combination of hazards and cannons are made in the same stroke, all are scored.
