YOU ARE THE REF
You a refereeing in the local league and a player - a local scaffolder - is at the table. He is 45 up with three reds left and he is on a colour. You know that if he pots the black then his opponent will require a snooker.
Unfortunately the scaffolder has recently caught dyscalculia and cannot perform even the simplest arithmetic. He asks you what the difference between the scores is.
How should you respond?

refs can tell colour blind players which colour a ball is. so i think the same principle should apply and the ref should respond with an accurate answer.

I would advise the player of what the score difference is and how much is remaining and because the player cannot perform simple arithmetic I would explain how many balls/points are required in these circumstances.

2 second chuckle. Then adopt a very serious expression. Lean over and look down at him, then say 'buck off'

Thanks BSP. There's a special section of the rule book which guides on how to effectively intimidate players who get on your nerves.
How many Chinese professionals (inc. HK) did not enter this year's world championship?

I did once have a 50+ when I was 19 but don't count that because there was a fluked blue in the middle.
