      hurray!

      well, I would need an unbelievable number of free balls. 16 to be exact. Pot every red free ball together with a red (15x2 pots- 2 points each break) and then pot a free ball yellow together with the yellow (2 additional pots for 2 points).

      • Congratulations snookersfun! It is indeed possible to pot 32 balls in a frame and score only 32 points, while satisfying the requirements of the question!

        So here is the table after round 339, excluding rounds 333 and 337 which remain open.

        ROUND THREE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SEVEN
        ...is still open?

        ROUND THREE HUNDRED AND FORTY

        If you have just one visit to the table during a frame, what is the highest break you can make yet still lose the frame (without conceding, forfeiting, retiring, being disqualified etc)?

                      • LM, you obviously had a few lagers already as you can only give one answer at a time and have to wait for the next answer after your previous answer has been confirmed as right or wrong

                        • PTS. Quite right, it has been a while since I have been on here!

                          But where is the question master?

                          • YES, QUITE RIGHT. I ALREADY THOUGHT WHAT YOU WERE UP TO!!!!

                            Some little engagement happening perhaps?

                            • I just plump an outrageous 142 (starting with free ball and clearing including the blue)
                              22 snookers later, pink and black potted and Ebdon has won

                                Yes but the question states 'one visit'.
