If a match is not refereed, it will be considered a cue ball foul if during an attempt to jump, curve or masse the cue ball over or around an impeding numbered ball, the impeding ball moves (regardless of whether it was moved by a hand, cue stick follow through or bridge).
23. Three consecutive fouls
If a player fouls three consecutive times on three successive shots without making an intervening legal shot, he loses the game. The three fouls must occur in one game. The warning must be given between the second and third fouls.A players inning begins when it is legal for him to take a shot and ends at the end of a shot on which he misses, fouls or wins, or when he fouls between shots.
24. End of game
A game starts as soon as the cue ball crosses over the head string on the opening break. The 1 ball must be legally contacted on the break shot. The game ends at the end of a legal shot which pockets the 9 ball; or when a player forfeits the game as the result of a foul.
