Being in the USA, the only knowledge I have of snooker is gained listening and watching the events on the internet. I certainly enjoy your comments and enjoy learning the game. This does transfer nicely to the pocket billiards I do play. I have a curiosity for the pattern of eye movement as you sight and execute the shots. The great camera work on current snooker play has given me clues for different players.

@EannaButler Жыл бұрын

This eye-look pattern is very interesting to me too! Flicking between cue ball and object ball.

I've been playing 30years and I've always broke off 2inches to the right of the brown and I hit the last but one red with middle/top right hand side. Always get a great breakoff with the cue ball behind either green or brown. Works for me.🙂

I, for one, love scrappy, 30-40 minute frames. It challenges players in other ways and we often see a more tactical game, which I like. It'd be a problem if was every frame, but once in a while it's nice to have the variety.

I remember reading books teaching you how to play over 30 years ago but nothing beats a seven times world champion showing you in a video. I wasn't a terrible player but these tips would have been so helpful. I would say these videos are essential for all new players.

Hello Stephen. I'm a long-time fan of yours (from South Africa) and I think I've watched every single televised game you've ever played; some more than once! Your new channel is AmAzInG and thanks so much for these lessons; they ARE being tried-and-applied! I've always admired your shot-selection and willingness to take a risk if the potential reward is of value. Enough "Fan-boying" and back to practice... 😎

Great vid. Would love a video about imparting side spin on the ball. I use it to play shots but feel like I cue across the ball a lot. Not sure if the cue should be going through in a straight line, or where I should really aim at the object ball.
