A maximum break is the highest possible break in snooker in normal circumstances and is a special type of total clearance. A player compiles a maximum break by potting all 15 reds with 15 blacks for 120 points, followed by all six colours for a further 27 points. Compiling a maximum break is regarded as a highly significant achievement in the game of snooker and may be compared to a nine‑dart finish in darts, a hole‑in‑one in golf or a 300 game in ten‑pin bowling. A break of up to 155 is possible if the referee awards a free ball before any of the reds have been potted, but breaks exceeding 147 are exceptionally rare, having occurred only twice in professional competition. Any break greater than 147 but not 155 is not considered to be a maximum.
