    Snooker is a cue sport played on a rectangular billiards table with six pockets.

    1. When the balls are correctly set up for the start of a game of snooker, which ball is in the centre of the table?

    2. If a player starts his/her turn when one red ball remains on the table, what is the maximum number of points that it is possible to score (without any foul shots)?

    3. How many penalty points are awarded against a player who strikes the cue ball towards a red, but hits the black instead (without hitting it into a pocket)?
