side pockets

Billiard ball catchers

Side pockets are compartments sewn into the sides of garments—pants, jackets, bags—for carrying small items.

In pool and billiards, side pockets are the two pockets located at the midpoints of the long rails, as opposed to the corner pockets.

In finance, a side pocket is a segregated account within a hedge fund used to isolate illiquid or hard-to-value assets from the main portfolio.
