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
The 1-pin	2	100%	47%
The 2-pin	1	0%	69%
The 3-pin	6	83%	42%

Splits, by type

Type	Left	Made	You	League
Baby splits 2-7 / 3-10	2	1	50%	24%
Big four 4-6-7-10	1	0	0%	0%
Other splits	11	1	9%	8%

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
Washouts 1-2-4-10 / 1-2-8-10 / 1-3-6-7 / 1-2-10 / 1-3-7	4	1	25%	15%

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
Strike	44	29%	16%
One pin	40	26%	16%
Two pins	19	12%	9%
Split	14	9%	8%
Three or more	27	18%	33%
Nothing hit	9	6%	17%

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.
