Double 3 rule?

What's up with this rule in Omok? I was literally in a position where I could put a piece anywhere near my other pieces because of this rule, so I ended up losing when I could have won.

It's actually one of the real rules of the game.

According to this link, without the double three rule, the game becomes solved, and black can always force a win.

not having the double 3 rule in place makes it far too easy to win
