Simon Martin I want to like your comment, but the current number of likes reminds me of the vid I saw of Ronnie's record 147 and Peter's 12 break side by side lmfao
Lee Whiteside Yours is a very basic and obvious joke. Jack’s is funnier because it doesn’t make any logical sense. And if you’re going to call someone stupid or uneducated, at least spell ‘you’re’ correctly ffs
How stupid u are? You are not seriously believed that Ebdon really needs 5 minutes to complete a 12 break? He did this just to mentally breakdown Ronnie Osullivan. Ebdon just intentionally played this slow to affect his opponents
It's funny to see how the commentators lose enthusiasm throughout the break. They start off quite normal and commentate well, but begin to get bored and frustrated at Peter. They quite clearly mock him and are secretly happy when he misses.
mropinionated100 This is a serious shit Mr Peter fucking Ebdon. I am not a professional player but i am not bad either, even i can pot that fucking pink in one or two strokes and get the position. Hilarious. That pink made me nervous and see he still misses the next shot 👊🏼
I went to the doctor's as I suffer from insomnia, he used to give me sleeping tablets but they were doing me no good, he advised me that I will get a good night's sleep if I watch Peter Ebdon, Problem solved, I now watch Peter Ebdon matches every night at midnight and within 15 minutes I fall fast asleep 😂😂😂
That's why they call him Exocet Ebdon. The most interesting part of this was cut out. O'Sullivan's grin and long stare at Ebdon as Ebdon sat down, as if to say "Come on, you must be joking"
Players always like it when Ebdon is on for a big break, it gives them time to leave the arena and and go for dinner and still be back before the end of the frame.
Stages of meditation. 1. Watching paint dry 2. Watching grass grow 3. Watching the evolution of life on planet Earth. 4. (for masters): watching Peter Ebdon building a break.
Peter is actually a really nice bloke but he had to retire due to issues with his lower spine. Most people only remember him for this famous break of 12 which took him 5 minutes 9 seconds. It was against Ronnie O Sullivan in the 2005 world championship. He is actually a former world champion and i hope he can put that break of 12 out of his mind and move on with his life. That break of 12 will haunt him for the rest of his life - It was that break of 12 that gave him a painful spinal injury as he feathered the cue ball 10 - 12 times on each shot before striking it thereby spending huge amounts of time with his head down on the each shot before striking it. Remember that he was forced to retire due to issues with his lower spine. That 12 break is what caused a serious SPINAL BREAK in his lower body. It was very beautiful to watch the injury happen to him in realtime. Thanks for all the really fast, exciting snooker Peter and i wish you the best of luck mate. AND REMEMBER PEOPLE - ALWAYS REMEMBER HIS FAST AND TOTALLY AMAZING BREAK OF 12!
oh my God people... 3:13 he starts to feather that pink into the left middle centre pocket...... it took him 18 FEATHERS before he finally went for the pot..... 18!!!!! I've never been so shocked in my life at pros style. even on ordinary shots he feathers too many times.. And the break was 12... what a plonker.
I really felt for the BBC when ebdon was playing, the amount of time they had to reschedule the times because of ebdon taking so much time, you all know when he's playing its gonna be long evening 😢
There is on RUclips an actual video of paint drying, and I had to take frequent breaks from this to look at that and reassure myself about my own judgement of the boredom factor here.
Virgo & Taylor sharing the commentary box is always great to hear. It was kinda rare too. Now I doubt we'll hear it again or very very unlikely too. I've noticed one tournament on BBC you hear Taylor, then next tournament is Virgo, then next Taylor... etc etc. Take turns.
I'll accept the fact that Ebdon is playing slowly as a tactic to throw O'Sullivan off his game. However, the fault lies as much with the referee, who has the right to ask a player to move on with things. It's a little bit like in the last 10/15 minutes of a football match, when the goalkeeper takes forever over a goal-kick, and the referee just allows it. In football the yellow card should come out, and in snooker the referee should be having a quiet word.
There's time wasting rules in football, there aren't time wasting rules in snooker. There is nothing the ref can do as Ebdon is within his rights to take as long as he wants too. I'm by no means defending Ebdon as I think what he is doing is bad sportsmanship, but he's not breaking any laws of the game.
Unless it's event specific there is no formal rule which says how long you must take per shot. However, that doesn't mean you're not going to get mocked and bashed by other players, pundits and onlookers. I'm normally a quick player, but even I once encountered a shot which took 6 mins to play,. In my situation being faced with a difficult high pressure shot in a final ball black situation. Meant my opponent and onlookers had no issue with me putting considerable thought into the shot I was going to play.
Ebdon what a legend. He knew that to have a chance of beating O Sullivan he had to stop him from getting into his groove. If Ebdon was a football team he would be Burnley
Don't misunderstand over some people are clapping after Peter's shots. This is only for the reason that he had finally given up stroking and hit the ball.
Having trouble getting to sleep? Sleeping pills not helping? Well fear not people! There is a solution to your problem! Simply change the speed on this video to 0.25 and you'll nod off in no time!
Someone who plays fast pace snooker, I can see why this would be torture for Ronnie, lol, just look at his expression. One thing for sure, Corvid-19 will go before Ebdon finishes his last shot.
This guy would have been a legend if he just didn’t rush it…you can’t force a game…relax sit down take 30-40 deep breaths have some water, put your feet up and regroup for the next point. This is what happens when you play like a maniac
Ronnie shaved his head knowing his hair would grow back by the time this frame finished lol.
Bwhahahahaha
lol
Good one mate🤣🤣🤣. He could pass for Gandalf by the time the frame had been completed.
😂😂😂 amazing
😂😂😂😂😂😂 deadly
The referee was in his twenties when that match began.
Moz Dee hahahaha best Ebdon comment ever😂
😂😂😂
just send me location Edson is no Tony drago that’s for sure
😃
😂😂😂
watch it on 0.5 speed to make sure you don't miss any details
It wasn't at that speed already??
Thanks, its now playing twice as fast.
Thankfully youtube have put 0.25 speed on so I can look at the details even better now
this made me LOL
I did watch Ebdon play once in a match, that was two years ago, and its still going on.
Simon Martin I want to like your comment, but the current number of likes reminds me of the vid I saw of Ronnie's record 147 and Peter's 12 break side by side lmfao
Peter ebdon once went carol singing . He sang the twelve days of Christmas. Three Christmas's later he'd got to the partridge in a pair tree.
It's now've been 3 years since you've made this comment and rumor has it, that game is still not finished. :)
Despite how slow Ebdon was I’d rather watch him then the current chinese boring drone players 😐
Is he about to break off in first frame
I heard Ebdon is playing the 2001 China open at the moment.
RuK?
Still eyeing his opening shot after he demanded it to be cleaned 5 times.
Is he still feathering the white to break off in the first frame
Lee Cassidy wtf😂👌🏼
@@leec6424 No! He is actually chalking the cue
Ahahahahahaha!!!!
I'm surprised he didn't ask the ref to get the vacuum out and clean the floor
Nuclear_Lolocaust LMFAO!
🤣🤣🤣
Oh lord 😂
No that's very funny. Made my day!!
Yeah and I bet he had tampered with the plug on the vacuum so it didn't work
Peter Ebdon could have won so much more in his career if he just took his time on shots and didn't rush things....oh wait....
+Henrik Høyrup i think one day he will saw is own finger off
L
O
L
would have been funnier minus the "oh wait" part
Lesnar Lulham lol true 😂
He could've won so much more if he'd had time to play more games.
At that rate, a Peter Ebdon maximum would take 5:20*12.25
= 1hour 5minutes and 20 seconds
I wud rather never see it.
Do the maths right , you idiot
High speed stuff indeed. Highlights of this superb break are as follows:
0:06 Red
1:11 Brown
2:45 Red
3:32 Pink
4:56 Red (Missed)
Yeah, in the blink of an eye, I almost missed everything..
hahahaha
Cheers mate i kept blinking
you win today lmao
Superb comment
When peter ebdon was born the doctors took a lunch break during the delivery...
newtonianromance only because Ebdon did the same.
Lmao
The midwife had to be replaced three times due to retirement.
Meanwhile....Ronnie did a 147 break with that same amount of time.
faster
Ronnie's hair was long by the time he got back out of his seat.
Imagine if he would have miscued on that pink after 19 strokes 😂
yajit puri
Hahahahahahahaha! I'm in tears just imagining that!
I thought you were exaggerating but deary me he actually did, I counted. Give me strength ahhah
he did miss it by 4 inches
@@obs4281Starts cueing at 3:14, shoots at 3:32. 18 seconds.
😂
10 years ago Ebdon went for a 5 minute walk. Rumour has it to this day he is only 2 minutes in
Jack Aldred lol
Jack Aldred it wasn't a rumour.
I'd like that to be true but I dont believe hes 2 minutes in. I demand a drug test
Lee Whiteside
No Lee, Jack’s joke is far funnier. You’re just too simple to understand it.
Lee Whiteside
Yours is a very basic and obvious joke. Jack’s is funnier because it doesn’t make any logical sense.
And if you’re going to call someone stupid or uneducated, at least spell ‘you’re’ correctly ffs
Sorry, but I would have rathered the camera stay on Ronnie for those 5 minutes...
Aweeesommme comment
It watch paint dry
I watch this clip before bed. It helps me sleep.
I genuinely believe Ebdon is mental.
How stupid u are? You are not seriously believed that Ebdon really needs 5 minutes to complete a 12 break? He did this just to mentally breakdown Ronnie Osullivan. Ebdon just intentionally played this slow to affect his opponents
flawless mr not just that he is slow but that is a factor
flawless mr explains why he won the world championship 7 times.
Harry Banks I think ebdon has aspbergers
@@danswerman6177 lel he didn't but if a joke nice joke xd

Torva Craft xD
Legend says john virgo wife gave birth during this game and at the start of it she wasnt even pregnant
@@leec6424 John should be suspicious of that
@@leec6424 😂😂😂
I thought they were quite entertaining. It is actually not often Virgo and Taylor share the same commentary box but when they do it's brilliant.
Seeing Ronnie's expression throughout the break is priceless lol
Ronnie should have smacked him there wouldn't be any witnesses as they were all asleep
@@leec6424 😂😂😂
I literally watch this to see Ronnie's face expressions
I bet players groan when they find out they've got ebdon next
Narby And the referees.
Thankfully ebdon doesn’t do well nowadays. Most boring player in snooker by a mile.
O'Sullivan would fall for these tactics these days.
@Oliver McCall thank god
Oliver McCall and Selbys out as well haha
Outstanding break. It has cured my insomnia. Going to put it on loop for 8 hours.
3:13 to 3:34 shot on the pink, 19 strokes!?
mropinionated100 This is a serious shit Mr Peter fucking Ebdon. I am not a professional player but i am not bad either, even i can pot that fucking pink in one or two strokes and get the position. Hilarious. That pink made me nervous and see he still misses the next shot 👊🏼
more strokes than your girlfriend gets per one session. nice.
@@Andrew-vt2wq lol
Fans clapping in relief
Imagine his procedure for conceiving children, poor woman
This video made Cliff Thorburn and Terry Griffiths cry.
If he hadn't rushed it, he would've potted that ball.
Ebdon said he started playing when he was just 5 years old!!
Didnt realise he meant this match
😂😂
Ronnie should sue Ebdon for giving him snooker depression due to extremely slow gameplay
Mohammed Asem Hussein 😂😂😂
Hard mode: watch this on 0.25x
Thought I was
I tried and i instantly regretted it 😂
This guy tests my patience alot....
I went to the doctor's as I suffer from insomnia, he used to give me sleeping tablets but they were doing me no good, he advised me that I will get a good night's sleep if I watch Peter Ebdon, Problem solved, I now watch Peter Ebdon matches every night at midnight and within 15 minutes I fall fast asleep 😂😂😂
awesome comment. Anyone who has problems sleeping should be given this on DVD
A famous feature of Peter Ebdon matches is the number of birthdays celebrated among the watching audience, many of them more than once.
That's why they call him Exocet Ebdon. The most interesting part of this was cut out. O'Sullivan's grin and long stare at Ebdon as Ebdon sat down, as if to say "Come on, you must be joking"
Players always like it when Ebdon is on for a big break, it gives them time to leave the arena and and go for dinner and still be back before the end of the frame.
Yeah or go to vegas with the lads
I wonder if Ebdon has dial-up? The slow speed perfectly suits his playing style.
AmyPie97 He give you a good foreplay
Ebdon had a televised 147 over 5 days and 20 hours
Had he had some amphetamine
Stages of meditation.
1. Watching paint dry

The audience come prepared when watching Peter Ebdon...they bring sleeping bags and a picnic basket!
'We've just passed that 5 minutes and 20 seconds and the breaks 12' Too funny!
Peter is actually a really nice bloke but he had to retire due to issues with his lower spine.
Most people only remember him for this famous break of 12 which took him 5 minutes 9 seconds.
It was against Ronnie O Sullivan in the 2005 world championship.
He is actually a former world champion and i hope he can put that break of 12 out of his mind and move on with his life.

It was that break of 12 that gave him a painful spinal injury as he feathered the cue ball 10 - 12 times on each shot before striking it thereby spending huge amounts of time with his head down on the each shot before striking it.
Remember that he was forced to retire due to issues with his lower spine.
That 12 break is what caused a serious SPINAL BREAK in his lower body.
It was very beautiful to watch the injury happen to him in realtime.
Thanks for all the really fast, exciting snooker Peter and i wish you the best of luck mate.
AND REMEMBER PEOPLE - ALWAYS REMEMBER HIS FAST AND TOTALLY AMAZING BREAK OF 12!
4:30 best part, I couldn't stop laughing, hahaha. It's so ridiculous how long he was concentrating and he still misses it xD
The ebdon effect is why we dont see snooker on tv more
Ronnie had long hair when Ebdon started this amazing break.
3:14
"potting program not responding"
"ctrl+alt+del"
"open task manager"
"end task"
"windows searching for solutions"
"sending error report"
"close task manager"
"double click potting program icon again"
When Ebdon drives in a 20mph zone, he keeps it a 5mph just to slow things down a bit lol.
I love Ronnie's facial expressions
I was in the audience at the time of this match. Most of the crowd were giggling after the first two shots. Too funny 😅
You should have booed him
Proof?
dimwit@@wuzimu-k1z
I love Peter Ebdon - the Geoffrey Boycott of snooker
oh my God people... 3:13 he starts to feather that pink into the left middle centre pocket...... it took him 18 FEATHERS before he finally went for the pot..... 18!!!!! I've never been so shocked in my life at pros style. even on ordinary shots he feathers too many times.. And the break was 12... what a plonker.
amarsbarr 19.. lol by my count. Haha
Qam001 18 feathers. on 19th he took the shot. finally.
Mohit Ghune yes you're right
I used to play junior snooker with Ebdon. After 3 frames we had to end the match so we could both play on the seniors tour.
Peter is one of the greatest players the world didn't watch
I really felt for the BBC when ebdon was playing, the amount of time they had to reschedule the times because of ebdon taking so much time, you all know when he's playing its gonna be long evening 😢
Patience is a virtue indeed against Ebdon.
@3:17 i thought that was a perfect gif loop...
18 practice strokes...a bit excessive I'd say.
lmao! Gif indeed!
The most infamous break in snooker history.
Behind Ronnie's mega fast maximum, ironically lol
Pure gamesmanship
the perfect video to watch if you want to fall asleep! they say count sheep but I say watch peter ebdon play snooker
underneonloneliness2 or count the number of feathers he takes before a shot. lol
Ebdon is the reason for snooker timers
Ebdon had a full head of hair when he walked in
Cliff Thorburn retied from snooker after Ebdon came along ,even he had had enough of him
I know Ebdon is a slow player, but I'm sure he deliberately takes his time to unsettle Ronnie :)
There is on RUclips an actual video of paint drying, and I had to take frequent breaks from this to look at that and reassure myself about my own judgement of the boredom factor here.
Ebdon still thinks of how he'll approach the tournament the moment Ronnie just recovers from the hangover the day after he won the tournament
When the Rocket meets turtle
Beautiful tempo!
What infuriates me most about his agonizing slowness is that he's a high level player. That means he appears a lot in tournaments.
Well it makes it easier for him to qualify when he ensures that his opponents give up the will to live after watching him play😂
Virgo & Taylor sharing the commentary box is always great to hear. It was kinda rare too. Now I doubt we'll hear it again or very very unlikely too. I've noticed one tournament on BBC you hear Taylor, then next tournament is Virgo, then next Taylor... etc etc. Take turns.
Ebdon is an ASMR natural, sending entire audiences to sleep.
This has the best title of any video on RUclips.
Ebdon makes Steve Davis and Terry Griffiths look fast
Oh come on Davis was never that slow.
Peter Ebdon is still playing this frame after 13 years
Just bare in mind Ronnie got a 147 in this time
There is an interview somewhere with ebdon and he says that it would have been 13 but he felt that he rushed his shot on the red
A century by Peter Ebdon actually takes a century
Ebdon the man who nearly single-handedly destroyed snooker ,😢 watching was like nails scratching on a blackboard ,,😮
He should get a Nobel Prize for curing amnesia.
Comments under this video are cracking me up. Thank you.
The match was so long. At the end of the video Peter reincarnated started looking like John Malkovich.
I met him in Dubai and he surprised me as he actually a bigger C8nt than he seems. Thats some achievement!!

It is down to the referee's discretion. I can remember years ago, Dean Reynolds was told to hurry up by John Williams.
Unless it's event specific there is no formal rule which says how long you must take per shot.

I always used to switch off when Ebdon was on... thank goodness we have players like Ronnie to keep snooker going.
Ebdon will win this year's shoot-out, 13-0 in the final
Hi mate, please wake me up, when Peter has just finished his 25th strokes on any ball.
Sir Peter Ebdon is my favourite player ;)
Ronnie literally played a 147 in similar time.Go figure.
Don't misunderstand over some people are clapping after Peter's shots. This is only for the reason that he had finally given up stroking and hit the ball.
His legacy will live on
He literally took 19 warm up cues before hitting the pink.
I'm never going to get back these minutes.
Having trouble getting to sleep? Sleeping pills not helping? Well fear not people! There is a solution to your problem! Simply change the speed on this video to 0.25 and you'll nod off in no time!
Play back speed was introduced after this video in you tube😉
The problem ebdon had was he rushed his shots and tried to get the frame over with. Massive fan
Half of the crowd were born during this break.
Someone who plays fast pace snooker, I can see why this would be torture for Ronnie, lol, just look at his expression. One thing for sure, Corvid-19 will go before Ebdon finishes his last shot.
Absolutely classic stuff!! 😂😂😂
I actually love Ebdon now
Peter is a actual a good player , but here he took gamesmanship to another level , Unsportsmanlike IMO
Greatest break I have ever seen, what a player!
Should bring a 40 second rule in similar to the seniors
Peter Ebdon 12.
Ronnie’s like hold my beer
This guy would have been a legend if he just didn’t rush it…you can’t force a game…relax sit down take 30-40 deep breaths have some water, put your feet up and regroup for the next point. This is what happens when you play like a maniac
In 5 mins, the cue ball has gone much smaller after been wiped over 100 times.
🤣🤣🤣
