    Jamie Cope, (the guy who did the long plant into the corner pocket) developed a tremor in his cue arm and was forced to abandon the sport in 2017. Im glad he is remembered in you tube compilations. One of the most beautiful shots I have ever seen.

      I've played him on a table he owns at longton snooker club, stoke-on-trent.
      I say played, I broke off 🤷🏼‍♂️ he's still extremely good, it's a shame he's no longer able to compete at the very highest level..

      Rules are easy, game is hard. You should firstly pot a red ball, than Black, blue or others. If you hide the ball behind the Black or blue or else, the shot is good because your opponent will play next, so he cant be able to reach any Red ball

      Well yeah. There are only 27 possible points on the table and he needed 30 to win. So he had to force his opponent to make a foul. And you do that by making it impossible for them to hit the "ball-on" (in this case it's yellow, because it's end of the frame).

      @@basilsini9739 it's very hard to play a safety here that doesn't leave one of the reds available for the opponent. Ideally you'd probably want to play a soft shot here to put the cue ball near the reds in bottom left. However, the yellow ball is blocking that avenue. This shot was not only a clever idea on how to put the red there in a different way, but also technically difficult (the rotation he played here is not easy to pull off with this much control).

    For those wondering, the purpose of the game is to score the most points obviously, you have to win a red ball then a colored one, A red ball is one and the coloured are worth from 2 to 7 if I'm not mistaken.
    One of the beauty of the sport is that you sometimes can't win any points due to your position, so you have to play a legal move by touching the next kind of ball you're supposed to (red or colored) and at the same time put the ball in the most awkward and unplayable position for your opponent. If you do that successfully, he's snooked and you might get 2 shots on your next turn by pushing him into playing an illegal move.
    It's been some time since I've watched the game, sorry for the mistakes if there is any.

    • @2rare2die100

      The 2 shots rule is pool rather than snooker. If you foul in snooker your opponent is given 4 points, or more depending on the type of foul (ie if the blue, pink or black is involved, the foul is equal to the value of that ball)

      If you know anything about pool you should pickup on it pretty easily. Most of these shots are defensive and the goal is to either hide from a cherry and once all of those are gone hide them from the lowest value ball on the table because I think you have to make them lowest to highest in value.

    For people saying they know nothing about snooker you just have to follow 2 steps:
    1) First you pot a ‘red’ ball THEN any colour and so on.
    2) When red balls are finished you pot colour balls.(every colour ball is worth some points starting from 2 to 7 so you pot lowest one first and end it by potting highest one last)
    Now if you’re following the above 2 steps and you missed a pot and the other player isn’t able to follow the above steps or is having difficulty in doing so, that is considered a good shot by you.
    Ps: My bad if I missed something,I’ll edit it later once the missed part is pointed out.

      I was just going to post the same comment. I watched a video that was about 28 mins long and had to put up with 11 adverts! I don`t mind the odd add or two but come on YT.

    Exhibition shots are what players under pressure resist under stressful times, practicing they wouldn't think twice.

    Seeing the shot is the first step, convincing yourself that you can do it, is the second, and almost hardest; but doing it makes it beautiful.

      It's not just about potting balls, it's about getting points she stopping your opponent from potting balls

    • @Tomwithnonumbers
      @Tomwithnonumbers 2 года назад

      In snooker you get points if you opponent fails to make a legal move. So there's places where it's better to create a difficult shot for your opponent than pot.
