No, you cannot do a plant with a free ball. You would have to pot the nominated free ball directly.
A foul snooker occured with all the Reds on the table and so a free ball was granted. Burnett potted the brown as the extra red, then another brown followed by the 15 reds, 12 blacks, two pinks and a blue and all the colours.
A free ball in snooker is a ball that is elected by the incoming player to take the place of a ball that is legal to shoot, or "on". The reason for this election is that the opponent fouled, and left the incoming player "snookered" on every ball on. The free ball can be any ball on the table, and will be scored with the value of the ball it replaces. Any colored ball pocketed as a free ball will be respotted as usual.
In snooker, after potting all the reds on the table, you are required to pot Yellow, Green, Brown, Blue, Pink and finally Black in the mentioned sequence.
, on the table at the start of a match there are 21 balls on the table, and 22 including the cue ball (white ball). This includes 8 different coloured balls - white, red, yellow, green, brown, blue, pink and black. Altogether their are 22 reds and 1 of each of the others (white, yellow, green, brown, blue, pink, black). So altogether, their are 8 different coloured balls in snooker including the cue ball, and 7 not including the cue ball. I hope this helps.
I assume you are referring to potting a free ball then black, then 15 reds with blacks and then all the colours. In this situtation the break would be a 155.
Yellow, green, brown, blue, pink and black.
BILLIARDS, or SNOOKER? Billiards only uses 3 ball's, 2 white (one with a spot on) and 1 red. SNOOKER has 15 reds, and six COLOURED balls. (yellow, green, brown, blue, pink, and black.
155, free ball then black, then a 147 break 15 reds, 15 blacks, yellow, green, brown, blue, pink, black. This is only technically the highest break, it is very rare. 147 is usually the magic number.
Adding reds, especially dark reds, to blue creates shades of violet or purple.
There are 15 reds worth 1 point, a yellow worth 2 points, a green worth 3 points, a brown worth 4 points, a blue worth 5 points, a pink worth 6 points, a black 7 points and a white ball which is the cue ball used to hit against the other balls.
The minimum number of strokes required to make a 147 break in a snooker is 15 reds, 15 blacks, 1 yellow, 1 brown, 1 green, 1 blue, 1 pink, and 1 black. So, in theory, 36 shots are needed. However, if you include the initial break-off shot, which nothing would be potted, then the total shots by both players would be 37.
The colours have the following value Yellow - 2 Green - 3 Brown - 4 Blue - 5 Pink - 6 Black - 7 The last red has to be potted before starting on the colours. 27 is the value of the colours potted in order without missing one. The highest score is normally considered as 147 (potting all 15 reds followed by a black on every red and then the colours) but it is possible to score more than this if your first shot is due to a foul by your opponent.
