Is there any sort of unsportsmanlike rule in snooker, where when the frame is already won on points, and the player keeps shooting their inning, they could do something that causes them to lose the frame?
Ronnie O'Sullivan does a jump shot - in a snooker match.

unsportsmanlike behavior is often a monetary fine in snooker. don't know about being docked a frame for it, but maybe there's such a scenario
I think they would have to start whacking the ref with their stick. Snooker does not have the same kind of "suitable punishment" rule for bad behaviour
as at pool. I think the maximum official penalty is 7 points to the opponent.
Read the rules: Just had a rules reading moment in league play under BCAPL rules.
A fouled break was committed against my team mate. The offending young man just grabbed the balls and proceeded to re rack. My notice to team mate of improper allowing him to do that. He was, uh "oh well". So when I played the youngster next he fouled the break with a misscue that juggled the rack. But no 3 to a rail required.
I intercepted as he moved towards the rack. My statement that the rules gave Me the option. NOT HIM. His Captain was sure that he could just rake 'em and retreat 'em. Oh Hell No. Fortunately he had The Rules on his phone! Whew it took a careful reading to get understanding.

You must legally pocket a ball or cause at least four object balls to contact one or more cushions or it is an illegal break.
If your break is illegal, with or without a foul, your inning ends. Your opponent may re-rack the balls and break or require you to re-rack the balls and break again.

You really going to tell the GOAT how to play the game? What he should and should not be doing?
