No, but the fact that Lucy had fouled is significant...Originally Posted by abextraI'm not sure now... do you mean Claire put Lucy back in?"If anybody can knock these three balls in, this man can."

I think that, with the second half of your first answer, will be enough for the point anyway... but why did the ref award the frame?Originally Posted by abextraWell, maybe Lucy's foul was so serious that the referee awarded the frame to Claire?

When is a player most likely to forfeit a frame from a foul?Originally Posted by abextraI guess she did something stupid before, for example struck the side cushion with her fist and was warned by the referee, and then she did it again... how should I know??? Please tell us!

Congratulations, abextra! That is what happened, and is why Lucy forfeit the frame, and why Claire's next shot was the break-off in the next frame.Originally Posted by abextraOh, did she miss three times in a row? When she could see full ball?
There are many reasons why it may have happened - for example, when Lucy played her shot, the white may have been touching the green by the baulk cushion, with the blue snookering her on the red over the pocket, and the green "Chinese snookering" her on the red near the pink. After twice attempting very thin safeties on the open red, despite her being able to hit it full ball, and missing it completely, she then miscued on the 3rd attempt as a result of being hampered by the green. The frame was duly awarded to Claire.
Scoreboard to follow..."If anybody can knock these three balls in, this man can."

Hmmmm. Maybe the next will be more than a question in wich we will have to guess what's on someone's mind.

208
Ronnie O'Sullivan walks out into the arena and the spectators, including me, can see that he hasnt tucked his shirt in properly. His boxers are clearly visible.
what colour were his boxers that day? (theres quite a few possible answers, but you have to guess the one i have in mind)
on second thoughts, can someone post a better 208 question please? ta
