The Snooker Thread

Mad frame between Judd and Kyren right now

Can’t stand Shaun Murphy, he’s always got some underlying bitchyness to his comments, but he’s looking strong. Kyren has a face on him but seems like a decent dude.
Amazing that these faces have actual human lives behind them. I’m the first to judge someone on how they look around the table. Terrible I know.

They’re called Mr Tumble & Gerbil Face in our house.
Gerbil Face will hopefully make a comeback. Looking forward to an evening of Chinese takeaway and snooker.

It’s because there’s barely anything else to go off. I usually end up rooting for the person with the less annoying face

Shame Pilsbury bitchboy won.

Not snooker but fuck me this is incredible.

Have you seen efren Reyes?

Has he hit a better 8 ball shot than that though?

Melling has also done the greatest sequence of shots in 9 ball too

Oh man it’s actually 8 ball on a 9 ball table!

Fair enough Bata is the goat.

Check out efren Reyes best shot compilations on YouTube, he’s an absolute savage

Efren will go down as the all time greatest. Melling is a magician and can pull some insane stuff regularly, he’s at the top for sure but can be easy to beat because he’ll get himself stuck and luck is not on his side. Amazing to watch. So many great players at the moment. Some incredibly boring ones too.
I like to watch exciting mavericks. Melling, Jordan Sheppard, Carl Morris is fun.
Some players are facinating how they find their patterns.

this guy pops up on YT and is insane, he must spend all day everyday at the table and of course we only see the ones he makes but still, very impressive what he doeas every day.

Mick Hill is a very good 8 ball pool player. 8 ball pool is alright but my head’s not in the game. Snooker is way better.

This is well worth a watch.

Yeah you don’t see the failed attempts. It’s pretty impressive but honestly 8 ball pool on that size of a table is not that hard if you’ve got ability.
Mick Hill is the guy to watch. Very very good.

We should meet up and have a game some time.

Actually, yeah we definitely should at some point.
I love that Mosconi match, watched it quite a few times.
Mick Hill is really good, he knows exactly where the angles are making his white ball game impeccable. Saw him play at my local last year. There are some real up and comers at my local doing the ultimate pool circuit now.

My wife’s gone for Selby and Judd. I’ve gone deeper into the odds with Mark Williams and Shaun Murphy.

Merry world champs eve.

Not anyone’s favourite player but that was smooth.

Gutted for Gilbert but Si is a good dude.
