Where does it say that the breaks have to be made by the same player, anyway? Why can't player A make a break of 56, then player B make a break of 56, and then either player make a break of 56?Originally Posted by Robert602"If anybody can knock these three balls in, this man can."

Congratulations Robert602. 56 is the answer I was looking for – in exactly the way you described.

As it approaches the pocket, a kamikaze woodlouse crawls out from under the cushion and makes its way across the table, conflicting with the path of the red precisely at the point the red gets there. The red, needless to say, veers off course, and the future of the woodlouse is uncertain. - The Statman

thats 4 for a start, and the U's may not be finished

ROUND FORTY-EIGHT
Joe Perry would beat Andy Hicks 26-9
Steve Davis would beat Peter Ebdon 23-21
Mark Williams would beat Graeme Dott 36-11
John Higgins would beat Ken Doherty 18-15
I have based the above results on the players' names. What exactly is the link between the names and the scores?Comment

Numerical value of the first letters of the first name and surname added together, ie:
Joe Perry = J + P = 10 + 16 = 26
Andy Hicks = A + H = 1 + 8 = 9
