The highest snooker break possible where fouls are not a factor is 147 (15 reds, 15 blacks and then the six colours). This is known as a maximum. Stephen Hendry holds the record for the most maximums in official competition, having made eight. He also holds the record in televised matches, with seven. The one session record is held by Adrian Gunnell who made three 147 breaks in four frames during a practice session in Telford in 2003.
At least three breaks in excess of 147 have been recorded. A 149 by Tony Drago in West Norwood, UK in 1998 is recorded by the Guinness Book of Records as the highest. In that match Drago was foul snookered and chose the brown as the free ball, to score one point. He then potted the brown again, for four more points, before potting 13 reds and 13 blacks, a red and a pink, a red and a blue, then all the colours. In October 2004, during qualifying for the UK Championship, Jamie Burnett achieved a 148 against Leo Fernandez, becoming the first player to achieve a break of more than 147 in a professional match.
Wally West was reported to have made a 151 break in the final of a club competition in Hounslow in 1976. Jamie Cope was reported to have made a break of 155 in a practice frame during 2005.

147 unless you get a free ball before the first red is potted then its 155!!
147 + free ball counting as a red and the black taken after it
