- Masters 2023 is almost upon us!
To mark the occasion Stephen sat down with the legend that is Ken Doherty, to chat all things Masters. The pair traded stories on memories from years gone by and also filled in their Masters wall charts to decide, whilst debating, who they thought would take the crown this year. This episode is filled with so many laughs and also some incredible insight into the tournament and the players taking part this year. Massive thanks to Ken for coming to spend some time with us to film this. Do let us know in the comments who you think will win and if you agree with Ken or Stephen. This is a longer video from what we've done so far, but it really is must watch before the tournament gets going. So get yourself a drink, sit back and enjoy!

The unique thing about Stephen is that ALL the players will happily talk to him for these interviews... no other player carries that level of respect.
Ronnie does
@@toziassmitt I disagree with you. Of course, Ronnie is respected as a player but he hasn't got Stephen's very amiable personality. I think Ronnie will develop into a better presenter after he retires.
Kendo and Hendo for 3/4 of an hour? 🤯 Thanks for the treat boys!!!
Steve Hen Kendry and Hendo Herty
Agreed
@@AD-kv9kj he, hehe.
I took the 147 likes sorry 😂
Ken is an incredible snooker player and a great snooker commentator too , his knowledge about the game is insane , the way he predicts some shots and its outcome before even the shot is played are insanely accurate. He also has a great voice that any sport commentator needs to have , great to see him on the channel.
Ken! Another legend. Love his craic too, always makin' me chuckle.
Stephen, you are turning into a great broadcaster. I still wish you were playing, but this is a brilliant '2nd best'! Happy New Year to you, Ken, and everyone watching this.
He is playing again
Jesus just move on. His playing career was highly successful. He’s finished as a player! He’s hopeless! Move on ffs!!
@@rhendry5832 weird over reaction. Are you okay? Run out of your meds?
@@Eat-MyGoal just sick of folk saying he should still be playing! He’s finished and absolutely shit now. Sane as white but the difference is he was always shit
@@rhendry5832 Wow , having a go at someone posting a pleasant comment on youtube ; you must be a real ray of light....
Snooker has been dying for this sort of content for years on RUclips and social media. Cheers Stephen what a channel
Nice to see Ken on the channel, highly underrated player and great commentator/pundit!
Who underrated him? He's a former world Champion!
I like him, but he’s overrated if anything. That year was a shocker from Stephen.
@Darby o Jones 🤣🤣 👍
@@Billdick360Indeed ... AND twice runner up ... Nothing average about that
@@peterjd3170 1/3 in finals. A regular hall of fame. Stephen: 7/9, Ronnie 7/8, Selby 4/5
My favourite new channel of 2022, has me interested in snooker again. I haven't watched a match in years, but have enjoyed all these videos.
2 good friends chatting so natural and brilliant to watch👏👏
Love your new channel . Its exactly what the sport needs to bring the fans closer to the personalities in snooker in an informal way . 👍
Ronnie for the hard table challenge
Ronnie isn't really social so don't think happening any soon.
@@AhmadMughal1 he’s also a complete nob head
Ronnie could be in any mood.. he’d either get a 147 or a 26 and laugh it off mood
@@AhmadMughal1 he did those 2 interviews with Stephen a couple of years ago so I'm sure he'll come on at some point
@@AhmadMughal1 proven wrong
Yes chaps! what a good crack this was. Just great to hang out with you both online and watch along to this video. Stephen, off the back of your videos, it has really brought back some memories of your classic matches and I have delved into the youtube archives to find them. Watching a prime Hendry is just awesome, it really is.
You brought an entirely different brand of snooker to the game and those playing the older and more traditional style just couldn't compete. Your game trumped theirs and they had to change to be able to compete on your level. I really believe you can get back to a pretty competitive level. IMO what would really help your cause even more is to try to get down to the weight you were when you won many of your titles becaue that is the basis on which you programmed your neuromuscular pathways to perform and they all have memory. All the very best to you.
this is the kind of content snooker has been missing
Great show. Ken never seems to age, looks the exact same as 10 years ago. Keep up the good work on this channel, it's building nicely with great content.
Same as in '97 when he won it in fairness.
Illuminati !
Ken looks the same as he did 20 years ago 😄
Ken is ageless he could pass for 25 lol!
@@Paul-sl9zm exactly what I was guna say! Maybe even 30 😂
Oh nice, I really like Ken, great sense of humour! Thank you for the share Stephen, happy new year to you and your team and family
Living in Dublin at the time, one day I walked up to Kildare St to meet my wife and walk with her home from work. It was a Friday and just a few days after watching KD win his world championship in 1997.
I was just waiting for a chance to get through the traffic and cross the road when I spotted Ken walking up the street on the other side. I ran straight out in front of traffic without thinking, waving and shouting "Ken Ken". Across in front of buses, cars, vans, the lot. Nearly caused a pile up in the centre of Dublin. 😂😂😂
I've met him a few times. He's a gentleman and always has time for snooker fans.
What a belter of a vid 😁 thank you both so much! Not just for this but everything you guys have done for snooker over the years.
What a way to kick off the New Year. It's been a treat.
Ken's a vampire he never ages
They keep him in the cooler until he goes on stage
I'm in Ken's corner on this.... Mark Allen is the guy to beat this year! Happy New Year from New Scotland... Nova Scotia!
Me too! I'm also thinking Selby to beat Ronnie. It's gonna be great to see how it plays out!
@@bonkersbeast hopefully
@@bonkersbeast that comment didn't age well....
@@dazzlecamouflage True!, that was a great result for Vafaei
love that paul hunter story. special person and glad the trophy was named after him
Love ken he's one of the good guys 👍 always chirpy good natured just a genuine likeable guy is our ken 🇮🇪. Apparently Stephen n Ken play alot of golf together who wld have thought those 2 wld become good friends . Loving these interviews tho keep them coming Stephen cheers
When you both talked about the Jimmy White / Kirk Stevens match I ended up watched the last two frames on youtube :)
I had to check if I'd accidentally sped up the playback speed when Jimmy was playing, Jimmy is so fast! Also, I guess your picks for the Masters shows how hard it is to predict a result out of any match.. Mark Allen was one of Ken's favourites to win the competition and he was knocked out in the first round without scoring a frame.
I’m lucky enough to work with these lads.
Two top fellas waxing lyrical. Great stuff! If anyone can…Ken can! 😉
I was there when you missed the pink for the 147 Stephen - I've watched a fair bit of live snooker and it's the closest I've come to seeing a max. I remember it like it was yesterday - no one thought you were going to miss. The roof would've come off the Conference Centre if you'd made it - even though it was packed to the rafters with Jimmy fans!
I am a new viewer to snooker and have to say Ken is my favourite commentator and absolutely love his laugh 🙂
Ken laughing is also one of my favourite things!
Ken is a good friend of my family, an absolute gentleman and a world class snooker player in his day
This is such a great video. More of these needed in the future for sure!
Thanks for the great show from the two best commentators & pundits in snooker.
Happy New Year - cheers!!
I watch Ken and fergil at the conference centre....bloody late night lol. Great video thanks Mr Hendrey.
I think your show is a breath of fresh air, and it's a privilege for a Legend of the Game (arguably the G.O.A.T) like you doing something like this. I have one request though, perhaps you could add some short video footage when discussing yesteryear games or when you are teaching us of something, or even when u mention some yesteryear guys like James Wattana or Jimmy White (who some of us never watched play). It would be awesome for us to be able to put a face to the person or to have a video example of what you will be teaching us (eg cue shots and examples of how different people play) or previous games (eg if u are talking about a re-spotted black in 1999 vs Mark Williams lol). I hope u can help with any of these u can. It helps with viewer interaction, especially for non pros who enjoy the sport like me. Oh, and 1 more thing u could possibly add, written text of questions u are answering, stats u are mentioning at that time, etc
What a way to start the new year Stephen! Thanks for the video
This channel is just amazing! Keep up the amazing work stephen
your videos are getting better and better keep uploading more videos. it's like a treat for us
Absolutely fantastic interview, funny, and entertaining. It is always good to see and hear more from Stephen and Ken, listen to their stories, and predictions.
Great video thanks Stephen, would love to see a few frames with you and Ken as well.
this was GREAT. And not-complaining because this is not easy to put together but with predictions like this it is unfortunate when they are not really current. Was clearly recorded before Bingtao was suspended and replaced by David Gilbert and before Selby's big win. He now seems to be in super form. It would be interesting to know if your predictions re Selby vs O'Sullivan have changed since his English Open victory.
Another great video ! Would love to have these prediction videos before each major tournament 😊
Great chat guys. Favourite channel on RUclips for me. 🎉
Great stuff again Stephen, loving the variety on the channel.
that was class to watch keep this up stephen i need more of this best 3/4 hour of my day thank you
Love these 2 legends but I'm the same with wasps panics if one comes through the window 🤭🤣🏃♂️
Kendo is the salt of the earth, a boy next door, a very likable character, down to earth, no bells and whistles, he tells it like it is, it's very refreshing, and Hendo has grown on me like a fungus over the years, I remember wanting him dead in the early 90s as he kept beating me hero jimmy. Still, I've gained a real fondness for Stephen, he's a great lad.
What a great channel really enjoying it. Haven’t really watched snooker for years. Reminds me of staying at my grandparents in the 90s, Hendry in his prime, my grandad loved him, hated Ken Doherty and Peter Ebdon though 😂.
Fair play Stephen Hendry , this channel is hugely helpful for every snooker fan in the world
And there’s millions of us
As expected great conversation and analysis. I have to say Ken is looking great...looks about ten years younger than he is.
This is awesome, thanks Stephen.
Great vid chaps. Massive fan of snooker 🎱 and you both. Happy new year 🥳 xxx
Awesome channel! Just love it! It's only going to grow and get bigger! Thankyou!
Great video. I saw the missed black ken . I miss the Barbican centre too. A great place. In the wrong place I always thought. It will be interesting to see if any of / or all predictions come true. Now that would be amazing.
Happy new year guys again wonderful and joyful video
Stephen loving these sit downs and just chatting
Is there a Seniors UK championship this year? Great video Stephen. Ken is a wonderful player . You are one of the greats . Thanks
Guys much obliged for the effort. Enjoyed this piece of entertainment very much.
Legends.
Absolutely loved that. Thanks Stephen and Ken 👍
Ken's got the best voice. Could listen to him all day! Great video!
This fast bebecoming a great channel for all snooker fans to watch,
Well done to Stephen and everyone else involved 👍
Haha... it's fun to see how you're wrong now the tournament has begun 🤣🤣 Curious to see the end of it 🥰 Love your channel GOAT !
Yeah great video lads. Great work Stephen and the team
Love this channel
I'm in the 🇺🇸, gotta find a way to watch The Masters, really getting back into watching snooker.
I like it more when you and the guest are talking and playing at the same time! Happy 2023
Stephen has turned into such a good broadcaster.
We needed this podcast 👍🏻
I love some these videos and this was great from both of them. However I don't think I'll be following their tips too closely,😀
This was brilliant Stephen, really entertaining and lovely seeing/listening to Ken too. keep it up bud
I'm watching this long after the tournament ended,
and I must say that being a prophet obviously isn't easy.
I love it that you have the guts to do it, and I hope you'll do it again. We all love it when you're wrong.
Excited for this video!
Ronnie, what a show. 2 of the best snooker players ever 🤘🏻
Steven your getting better and better every time at this !
Two absolute legends!
Nice mix of chat and expertise but maybe most important: it’s good to get to know Ken a bit more. Thanks for this.
Would love to see Ding on the channel.
I think. Best chances are on side of Mark Allen. 2x winner ,1x runner up and 1x in Semi this season. He has already won the masters. His game is A+ this year.
This channel is internet gold. Hendry is a natural at this i miss him playing but this is brilliant.
Class video as always, great stories and excellent craic! I fancy Robertson v Trump and Lisowski v O'Sullivan semi-finals and would love to see Jack go all the way.
This is absolute gold!
More like this please. Great great watch
Stephen should do this for every major tournament and predict the matches and see how he gets on
Great stuff guys, very enjoyable discussion. Enjoy the Masters
Love this! Please do more of these previews. Even watching it after the fact was fun. (More fun?)
Who won?
You called the John higgens match 👏
Great great interview shame it wasn’t done in English! Two great professionals and a joy to hear their reminisces. Well done Stephen. Turned from robot to great human! To be sure Ken isn’t commentating on the turd round! 🤣🤣🤣
Glad I didn't watch this for betting tips 😂😂😂
Fuxin brutal lads.
Becoming a really well presented show. Nice 3 cam edits, all very good. Keep it up. I’d like to see a Hendry match section, where we could have access to all the stuff he has access too of his matches. Finals, whatever. The hendry video vault.
Happy New Year, from a pool player across the pond!
Great name!!
Fantastic video. Must have been filmed before selby won the English Open as there was no reference to that when they were discussing Selbys chances of beating Xintong.
Especially since Yan Bingtao is still in the draw
Very interesting stuff Gents. Thanks.. Would have liked to have seen Stephen put Master Lisowski through though... think he's still due some capable wins ... And Mark Allen could still trounce them all... Even show Ronnie UP in the final... 😁✌️
Lucky this is called cue tips and not betting tips 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks guys a nice New Year treat...
Amazing content love it
Shame this was filmed before Mark Shelby won the English and Yan was suspended as I think this would have changed the predictions significantly. Anyway, great chat and so good to see the content on this channel. Great stuff. One of the best things about snooker in 2022/3!
Great stuff again!
Pure class!
Both Neil and Mark out in the first round was a big surprise but again it confirms how competitive the game is
It’s this simple , if Ronnie wants it , and prepares for it properly , who’s good enough to beat him , Luca can beat him if he’s not up for it .
I agree. Luca played some great snooker in the last tournament the English open. Ronnie needs to be up for it or it could be an early exit
Exactly
Why not each have their own prediction board? Would be nice to see the difference.
Cheers boys happy new year
Well you got 1 right so far out of the 1st 6 matches, one thing I know for sure is never to bet on snooker, especially the top 16 against each other👍
The predictions couldn’t be more wrong haha. That’s why we love snooker!
This should be picked up by BBC
Watched 4 vids today.
Love it.
But lads, how many you get wrong lol.
