If every single pin had fallen
Every single pin you left and missed, counted as made, with the whole game re-scored — a spare picks up the next ball as well. The 10th counts here too, so this can include a pin the frames 1–9 table above does not: a single pin left on the first ball of the 10th becomes a spare with the fill ball counted as a strike, the best it could have been, while a single pin left on the fill after a strike simply counts as knocked down.

Spares and leaves
Single pins, by pin
| Pin | Chances | You | League | House |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The 1-pin | 1 | 100% | 43% | 46% |
| The 2-pin | 3 | 33% | 79% | 78% |
| The 3-pin | 7 | 57% | 75% | 76% |

Splits, by type
| Type | Left | Made | You | League | House |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Baby splits 2-7 / 3-10 | 2 | 1 | 50% | 32% | 36% |
| Big four 4-6-7-10 | 1 | 0 | 0% | 0% | 0% |
| Other splits | 16 | 1 | 6% | 9% | 10% |
Named types are tallied by their exact pin leave. “Other splits” is every remaining split under the connected-pins rule: the headpin is down and what is left standing comes in two or more separate groups.
Washouts
| Type | Left | Made | You | League | House |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Washouts 1-2-4-10 / 1-2-8-10 / 1-3-6-7 / 1-2-10 / 1-3-7 | 2 | 0 | 0% | 25% | 21% |
A washout leaves the headpin standing, so it is not a split. It never appears in any splits figure on this page; on the ball-by-ball sheet it counts under “Multi-pin, no split”.
What the first ball leaves
| Balls | You | League | House | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strike | 81 | 38% | 32% | 35% | |
| One pin | 56 | 26% | 28% | 27% | |
| Two pins | 27 | 12% | 11% | 10% | |
| Split | 19 | 9% | 11% | 10% | |
| Three or more | 33 | 15% | 17% | 17% | |
| Nothing hit | 0 | 0% | 2% | 2% |
First balls in frames 1–9. A split is classed before the pin count (a 7–10 is a split, not two pins); “nothing hit” is a gutter ball or a foul.
