Illegal break. At least 3 balls had to be pocketed or pass the head string. Opponent has option to shoot or pass it back.

[The "3-point" rule.]

And in that event, the rule was that if the opponent returns the shot to the breaker, the breaker can perform a push-out, But if the opponent (non-breaker) accepts the table, he cannot play a push-out.

In the recent US Open 9-Ball event, they used the 3-point rule, but neither player was allowed to push out after an illegal break.
