Intentional fouls
« on: April 03, 2004, 07:57:55 AM »
Can a bowler be forced to take zero pinfall for the entire frame if an intentional foul is committed????????
 I looked at the Rule Book online but couldn't find any mention of this but I was told that this IS a rule.........
 If so where and under what section?????
 Thanks for your help.........

If there is an intentional foul to help them on the first ball its zero for entire frame but if they do it on the second ball where i don't see how it would help them then they can only take zero for that throw

They get no pins for the ball thrown. In other words - if they leave 2 pins standing, and get one of them on the spare shot, they get 8 for the frame if they intentionally foul on the spare shot.
If they intentionally foul on the first shot, it's like any other foul.

Shouldn't be true - I think if it's an intentional foul, it should be zero for the frame. Period.
