FORMULA
T(n, k) = Sum_{i=n..2*n-1} (-1)^(n+k+i)/i*C(i, n)*C(3*n, i+1+n)*C(i-n, k).
T(n,k) = C(n-1+k,n-1)*C(2*n-k,n+1)/n, (0 <= k <= n-1). [Chen et al.] - Emeric Deutsch, Dec 19 2006
O.g.f. equals the series reversion with respect to x of x*(1 + x*(1 - t))/(1 + x)^3. If R(n,t) is the n-th row polynomial of this triangle then R(n, 1+t) is the n-th row polynomial of A089434. - Peter Bala, Jul 15 2012
