TOP 4 INTERESTING Situacions Of SNOOKER ft. Selby, Fu, Hawkins, Williams I Part 1 (HD) 

Not to take anything away from Ryan Day's achievement but it was Marco Fu's mistake to let Day dictate the play. Marco should have taken a leaf out of Ronnie's playbook - to smash the red every chance he got and change the layout of the table. That was what p!ssed Selby off when he accused Ronnie of "disrespect" - because Ronnie did not fall into Selby's trap of getting frustrated each time he (Ronnie) might miss a snooker so cleverly devised by Selby. Instead, because Ronnie was smashing the cue ball in a very calculated manner, it was Selby who was getting frustrated by Ronnie;s play.

for real tho

@@stephengeorge4058 can’t have it put back when needing snookers, miss rule doesn’t apply

It's been six years and still hasn't corrected the spelling of situation 😂😂😂

@@jawadkhan1907 i’ve emailed him, should be corrected any day now 😆

⁠@@jawadkhan1907situacions of snewker

the first shot he made in this video was completely wrong. He put the black in front of the pocket instead of putting it safe. Or he should have put another color safe. But not that silly shot.

@@AngrierGorillaBit harsh I think. He was focused on the cue ball and almost got the snooker

@@lucas29476 yes and it was almost succesful, but the choice is wrong. When you are ahead and the opponent needs snookers, putting a color safe is the best choice. Especially with 3 reds still on the table, putting the black safe means almost another snooker needed

Hey fu too....🤣🤣🤣

Or situacions 😁

Please leave it as it is. Adds a certian charm.

Amature admin

He won the following frame so won the match & tournament - so he was happy

sdrtcacgnrjrc was a cracking effort nevertheless. i bet Hawkins was shitting bricks lol

+Danny Flint absolutely! remember admiring the persistence, but thinking he wouldnt really make it happen. But he did.

Easily the best shot of Mark King's entire career.

@@henrikhyrup3995 Brilliant, only a pro could make that shot.

@@henrikhyrup3995 and here's the worst ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TR3BBOfboLg.html

It's not. Mark King is a sucker.

Do you mean Ryan Day or Mark King?

@@rs-qt1qg he might mean Mark Selby or Mark Williams 🤣🤣

Yes, Too bad Ryan Fu lost

Liam Williams and Mark Fu were epic too

😂

With no reds on the table, the brown free ball is in place of the yellow. The referee incorrectly called '1' as the break, which confused things, but the scoreboard correctly showed 2 for the free ball brown (in place of the yellow), which then had to be followed by yellow, green, brown, etc.

Zonda17Cinque thanks for explanation! The ref call of 1 did confuse me greatly.

I think he realised his mistake as he called 4 after the yellow went in, but chose not to correct himself before the next shot so as to not affect Mark’s concentration

The thing is, as you said, they're on the colours. He nominated brown as the free ball, which in that case is worth 2 points as the ball he has to hit is yellow. Once he pots the brown, the brown is respotted and he continues clearing the rest of the colours (the next being the yellow ball). He was awarded 2 points (53->55), however the referee made a mistake and said "one". Edit: In fact, you can hear the referee say "two, sorry" just as Mark is getting down on the shot at 54:33.

@@CroPukyBro I missed the ref correcting himself. Thanks for the explanation 👍

Getting a "snooker" is basically not leaving a direct shot towards the ball he needs to hit (so it's hidden behind other balls or in some extreme cases behind the cushion in the corner of the pocket). In order to come out of snooker the player usually has to play a shot with heavy spin (in order to spin past the ball blocking it) or via cushion. The more cushions required in order to get the correct angle to hit the correct ball the more difficult the shot. Each successful snooker (opposite player not able to hit the correct ball) will award (atleast) 4 points and an option to let an opponent to try the shot again from the same spot (from the hidden spot).

You can't be snookered by a cushion. Angled yes but not snookered

A snooker is basically where you can't hit the ball that's "on" (I.e. that you're legally supposed to hit first) because of an intervening ball. If you fail to hit the ball "on" your opponent gets (a minimum of) 4 points

@@tg92277 ohhhh...hey cool thanks man!

I was wondering the same thing a while ago, so I looked up the rules. If a player fouls, and the foul leads to a board layout (table layout?) that the other player doesn't want, then they can have the layout reset to what it was before the fouling shot.

no, in a case when a player fouls intentionally, the ref can call a miss even if there aren't enough points on the table

No that’s not the case. A miss cannot be called when snookers are required. If there aren’t enough point available on the table, a Miss can’t be called.

that red was very tough, not guaranteed at all. Plus he needed the green to clear up, so he tried to develop brown and green with that shot. The choice wasn't bad imho, he was just a little unlucky fouling the brown

I'm a bit confused that Selby played brown as free ball and potted a yellow from it the next pot should have been a yellow again....or am I missing something

@@kartikeyarana995 well, basically the brown counts as a yellow. So instead of 27 you end up with a possible 29. So you’d take the order of colours as normal once the free ball is taken.

@@VINNIEJONES10 thnx for the clarification, much appreciated 👍

Correct me if I’m wrong, but if it hit the red (which it did) it’s not a foul, right?

you need to get back to the eighties for all that

Funny that I'm getting out now to buy beer to play tomorrow 😁

In an impossible snooker the player has to play towards an 'on' ball with sufficient force that it would have reached without the other balls being in the way. A foul but not a miss.
