The min number is 1 - you can get all three balls of same color if you are lucky on the first try!

Try reframe the question correctly.

Well the when you have 11 chances you can pick 11balls of different color.Then you pick another 11 then you will get again 11 balls of different color.Then 23rd ball you pick will be a ball of the same color as two others.So therefore you have 23 chances.
