If the player nominates the Brown, strikes it first, and results in both Brown and Yellow being potted - then 2 points are awarded.

SECTION 3. THE GAME

10. Snookered After a Foul

After a foul, if the cue-ball is snookered, the referee shall state FREE BALL

(e) If both the nominated ball and a ball on are potted, only the ball on is scored unless it was a Red, when each ball potted is scored. The free ball is then spotted and the ball on remains off the table.

If he has nominated the brown as a yellow for the free ball, then he scores 4 points (2 for each yellow).
