Also, I would prefer if you do explain how bowling is played, or I can do it for you, right here:

Explanation:

There are usually 24 lanes in a bowling alley, the first 4 usually has a gutter-free option (clearly its for children or rookies… Professionals don’t use this, I expect Ander to not use this as well)

Bowlers roll a ball along a smooth floor coated with lubricating oil to hit as many as 10 pins at once, converted into points. If all 10 pins are knocked down, a strike is award and the frame is complete, otherwise 1 more roll is required. 2 rolls are the max, if all remaining pins are knocked down on the 2nd roll, a Spare is awarded instead.

There are 10 frames, first 9 have 2 rolls, the 10th may have up to 3, the 3rd as a bonus roll, as a filler for Strikes and Spares.

How do we score? Scoring is complicated, be warned.

Bowling has a unique scoring system. There are 3 types of frames, Strikes, Spares and open.

An open frames is scored just by total pins knocked down. Strikes and Spares get bonuses.

A spare duplicates the number of pins knocked down in the next roll while a Strike duplicates the number of the entire next frame.

Special Names – 2 consecutive strikes is usually called a double, 3 consecutive strikes is usually called a turkey

Examples (Strikes):

Frame 1, ball 1: 10 pins (strike)
Frame 2, ball 1: 3 pins
Frame 2, ball 2: 6 pins
The total score from these throws is: Frame one: 10 + (3 + 6) = 19
Frame two: 3 + 6 = 9
Total = 28

A double’s pinfall is:

Frame 1, ball 1: 10 pins (Strike)
Frame 2, ball 1: 10 pins (Strike)
Frame 3, ball 1: 9 pins
Frame 3, ball 2: 0 pins (recorded as a dash ‘-‘ or ‘0’ on the scoresheet) The total score from these throws is:
Frame one: 10 + (10 + 9) = 29
Frame two: 10 + (9 + 0) = 19
Frame three: 9 + 0 = 9
Total = 57

A turkey’s pinfall is:

Frame 1, ball 1: 10 pins (Strike)
Frame 2, ball 1: 10 pins (Strike)
Frame 3, ball 1: 10 pins (Strike)
Frame 4, ball 1: 0 pins (Gutterball)
Frame 4, ball 2: 9 pins
The total score from these throws is:
Frame one: 10 + (10 + 10) = 30
Frame two: 10 + (10 + 0) = 20
Frame three: 10 + (0 + 9) = 19
Frame four: 0 + 9 = 9
Total = 78

Example (Spares):
Frame 1, ball 1: 7 pins
Frame 1, ball 2: 3 pins (spare)
Frame 2, ball 1: 4 pins
Frame 2, ball 2: 2 pins
The total score from these throws is: Frame one: 7 + 3 + 4 (bonus) = 14
Frame two: 4 + 2 = 6
Total = 20

A player who bowls a spare in the tenth (final) frame is awarded one extra ball to allow for the bonus points.

The most points that can be scored in a single frame is 30 points (10 for the original strike, plus strikes in the two subsequent frames).

Fun Fact – The maximum score in a game of ten-pin bowling is 300, scored by making 12 strikes in a row.

How do we determine the winner?

The highest score wins, obviously…

Summary:

3 Types of Frames:

Open, add all scores

Spare, add all scores + duplicate next roll score

Strike, add all scores + duplicate next frame score

Highest Score wins

Hope this helps everyone to understand how bowling is played in such a way that everyone will make educated guesses…
