Fifteen is one stroke given at the beginning of every game of a set.

Thirty is two strokes given at the beginning of every game of a set.

Forty is three strokes given at the beginning of every game of a set. 26. Odds are owed in each group of six games in the first place in the latest possible odd games; that is to say, an ower of one-sixth owes a stroke in the fifth game of each group of six; an ower of two-sixths, in the fifth and third games; and an ower of three-sixths, in the fifth, third, and first games.

When the odd games are exhausted, odds are then owed in the latest possible even game; that is to say, an ower of four-sixths owes his strokes, over and above an ower of three-sixths, in the sixth game of each group of six; and an ower of five-sixths, in the sixth and fourth games.
