    FROM (SELECT SUM(Cash) AS sum1,
                 SUM(Bank) AS sum2
          FROM players) indvsum         


        

Answer 1

Because that's the standard output of mysql_query function. It returns the identifier related to that query. To get selected rows use mysql_fetch_array($result) or mysql_fetch_row($result)
