What is "three-cushion billiards"?
Three-cushion billiards is a form of carom billiards played on a pocketless table, where the player must hit the cue ball, make contact with at least one cushion, which are the padded edges of the table, and then strike the two object balls. The cue ball must contact at least three cushions before hitting the second object ball. The goal is to score points by making successful carom shots with this added challenge of using the cushions. The number of cushions used before contacting the second object ball increases the difficulty, making three-cushion billiards a game of skill, strategy, and precise control of the cue ball's movement around the table.
