Really enjoyed this video. That cheeky flick on the red can't believe how easy he made it look. Would love to see this with a headcam on to see Ronnie's thinking because he literally plays every shot with side.
Pretty sure he will only use side when he absolutely has to, since it throws the cue ball off the line of the shot. Sure, this can be compensated for, but why make a shot harder for yourself than it has to be? If he gets himself into a good position then he should only need to be striking along the vertical centre line of the cue ball.
@@mez7736 Ronnie himself said that he actually plays every shot with side and over time just learned to compensate for it. It becomes a second nature really with the time these guys devote to the game.
Thank you Ronnie and Eurosport for making this video! You make it look so easy but it is not. Your advice makes so much sense! Awesome! Hope to meet Ronnie some day!
@@rvic11 I mean, he's only got what? 14 of them? Obviously it's the most ever, but it's still a pretty special occasion. It's like amount of times your average person gets a payrise
Over almost 3 decades Ronnie has left me in awe and p’d me off. Some years ago now I realised I shouldn’t get p’d off at the irrelevant things, it’s unfair to do so, probably to myself as much as him, and I should just appreciate the greatness. I appreciate the greatness.
You are 100% correct! Ignore the rest Ronnie is a complicated guy and none of that matters. On the table he is supreme and has set the bar so high for the rest to aspire to. Watching this bona fide genius at his best is beyond belief. He is simply the greatest that has ever done it.
THE WAY RONNIE TEACHING It's like getting bodybuilding training from ARNOLD getting science classes from EINSTEIN learning chemistry from WALTER WHITE .
The angles, that fascinates me in the game of pool. It is not just pocketing the balls, but positioning. Amazing. I hope that one day the Eurosport channels will arrive on cable television in Brazil so that I can enjoy all the ranked tournaments on the circuit.
There's also the fact that the pink is on its spot, which could never possibly be the case after a break off. That said, we never saw a break off as he started with an easy red lol
@@garrettkelly5568 are you smoking crack? How can it be a reverse angle, if that was the case then yellow and green would be the other way around. He plays the shot leaning over the middle pocket and then next shot is from the same place u melon. 😂😂😂
Quite simply the greatest that has ever done it. In his head to heads with the unbelievable Steven Hendry he came out as a clear and decisive winner. Ronnie won 31 to Hendrys’s 11. A genius who took the game to a new level when nobody really thought it was possible. Watching him has been a genuine privilege.
Ronnie is my sporting hero & he makes it all look stupidly easy! I don't think the game will ever see a player of his ability again, so enjoy him while you still can! 👍
2:54 and 2:56 ... Not that Ronnie needs it but those table elves must've come out and moved that red at least 3 inches further from the cushion. For my own 147s I only need them to do that for every shot I play, and then have a couple of them either side of the pocket to "help" guide my shots into the pockets. 😂
An educational video on building 147 breaks without moving a few stray whites around with your hand - the kind of thing you can do when you've 147s coming out of your ears! Crazy!
Hi. I’ve just watched this video on how to get a 147, but I went to the local snooker hall and only managed to get a break of 5. Who do I complain to please?
Nice set up from the start which isn't always the norm, but Ronnie makes this game look easy. He has always been very accurate. Will be a sad day when he hangs up his cue.
Edited. The development shot on the 2 red on cush, the ball he pots after the split, is now way too easy compared to how it laid. But its ok in my book as they are just trying to explain the positional shots u go through to make the max
I love how he says, "When you see this (spread reds) the FIRST THING that comes to mind is a 147 ..." Yeah - maybe for you Ronnie. Most of us are just thinking, "Don't miss the easy red! Don't miss the easy red!"
That’s ok he was just doing it for entertainment so he could show us his thought process and how he goes about it. After all he holds the World record for the most televised 147’s.
Of course it's edited. He's just giving an insight into it. It's very hard in any sport just to recreate or do anything on tap. Snooker more so as balls can run awkward
In the video, Ronnie talks of thinking 3 shots ahead but I wonder how far ahead do they think when they get to the table? Do the top players start picturing a 147 right from the get go or does it take a few shots before it becomes more apparent they have a good chance
It's a valid question. That's something I'm analyzed for years of how do they know and when is that apparent. I will say this, this is what I've learned. As the score climbs it reaches (40) at one point and then (80) at another point. If you were to ask, well which is easier for the top break builders ? Getting 40 or getting 80. I would respond saying both , they are easier as each other. But what makes the 147 hardest section of balls Is the moment right after (80) There has been 10 reds and 10 blacks sunk to make (80) but I strongly believe the final 5 reds followed by 5 blacks are the hardest 10 strokes made in the 147. A ton of people may argue and go nawwwww no way, The table has such vast open area available with only 5 reds left. But the trouble is is ... Those last reds are often tied up. In a Ronnie break he does cute little screws bumps and nudges and the cue ball barely travels far. Never hindering his 5 last reds. But Bob your question was, does a top player know right from the get go or does it take a few shots before it becomes more apparent. My scientific answer is is .. Its apparent when that 14th maybe 15th red is sunk and a player is looking down the shaft of the cue on the final black ( before the last 6 colors ) A better explanation is .. yellow to black is kiddie stuff for any player. Even terrible break builders rock at the final 6 colors on their spots. So its slightly before that moment is when they know. It isn't the 7th last shot , its not the black , but its that final red to black is the key to every 147. A person could leave no shape from black to yellow and throw the moment in the gutter. From the 36 shots taken for the 147. Shot 29 is the key ball The final red is when they know. And its after the cue ball settles and shows them the shape on black they have.
IDK EXACTLY DOES THAT TIP OF A QUE CAN TOUCH THAT MAT AFTER HITTING THOSE SHOTS....... IT'S JUST A TRIAL HOW ROS PLAYS THAT 147....I THINK THERE IS NOTHING MYSTERIOUS OVERTHERE..... GREAT ONE....

I’m glad you posted this, I’ve been hitting constant 147s ever since watching.
😂 me too!
😆
best comment.
I love how this is Ronnie's internal monologue every time he plays..."Aaaaand you can't play it any better than that"
3:10
Dialogue...
I don't know I never thought of that. My strategy after potting the first red was to miss the black. Now I can definitely hit a 147. No doubt..
😅😅
Ronnie being very generous here. A free 147 for RUclips.
Eurosport probably had to pay more than 5 grand, or he’d have been teaching how to play a 146.
Ebdon still thinking about the red on the 12 break .......
You made me laugh out loud man😂😂
👍😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Epic 😂😂

Poor from Ronnie there, no prize money on offer should have left the black
Please, don't touch number of like, it's perfect
But eurosport are paying him 10 k to make these 5 min videos lol
It's okay. He missed the plant into the centre anyway ;)
You've gotta thank Eurosport for content like this
Thank you Ronnie and Eurosport for making this video! You make it look so easy but it is not. Your advice makes so much sense! Awesome! Hope to meet Ronnie some day!
Always a pleasure watching you Ronnie truly amazing i hope your not retiring any time soon game won't be the same without you 👌👍👍
3:10 think that’s the first time I’ve seen Ronnie get excited over his own shot 😂
In Ronnie O'Sullivans life, that's just "another day at the office" 😂😂😂
Yeah, you could tell he had to fake enthusiasm about the magic of a 147 at the start of the video!
Brian Magicman but not good enough to win the players championship

Easy man! I get sick of doing them!! I just stick to 20's or 30's LOL
yeah and to give the other player a turn at the table too. : )
Sucks to be you
Amazing, thanks Ronnie - great vid!
Perfect.... perfect ...... perfect ..... perfect
Even after decades of playing snooker you can see how much enjoyment it brings the rocket when he develops the last red.
THE WAY RONNIE TEACHING
It's like getting bodybuilding training from ARNOLD
getting science classes from EINSTEIN
learning chemistry from WALTER WHITE .
or sticking in reality, Marie Curie

Snooker God luv u
I guarantee he missed that plant into the middle lol. Produce probably said ''Dw we'll edit that out''
Ya I noticed that as well 😂
But doesnt matter really. He has potted it where it mattered the most.
There's also the fact that the pink is on its spot, which could never possibly be the case after a break off. That said, we never saw a break off as he started with an easy red lol
Re set them up a few times you can see when he cannons the last 2 reds the red is near the cushion but when he played it it wasn't.
@@Anonymous-so7su your eyes are playing tricks on you. Look closer, you'll see the cushion blends with the table
I’ve hit 147 many times , Starting with a Red, Brown and finally the Black.
That black that freed up the last red at 3:08
"And you can't play any better than that" - you are absolutely right, champ 👏
haha was about to comment on that but you beat me to it 🙌
You are the best all time
2.55 red tight on the cushion
2.57 red magically moved
😂😂
Its not a reverse angle at all, the red has been moved 100%.

He is no 1 all love for ronnie
It is not as simple as he describes it LOL
Living Legend
Love u roniee
3:10 he realized how good he is
Only he can make it looks so easy for spectators. GOAT
I was waiting for the take outs at the end.
When he says at 3:10 that ‘You Can’t Play That Any Better Than That” I believe him.
Class
He is Ronnie Dad of all champions 🎱
great 147 ronnie be nice to have yr ability and time to practise

I would love to see Ronnie Make a 147 with him commentating all shots!

Thanks ronnie, hey is vinnie C over there with you guys, ?
Nice set up from the start which isn't always the norm, but Ronnie makes this game look easy. He has always been very accurate. Will be a sad day when he hangs up his cue.
Nobody hits the ball like Ronnie. Just listen to the connection.
Lovely i also made 147 recently
4:27 - "Now you can't fail."
Tell that to ken Dougherty.
That looks easy Ronnie I'll do it after the lockdown. 😲🙄🤐🤐😆😆😆😆
1.43 white goes into red haha
"How to hit a 147".. be good at editing or just be Ronnie...
Edited. The development shot on the 2 red on cush, the ball he pots after the split, is now way too easy compared to how it laid. But its ok in my book as they are just trying to explain the positional shots u go through to make the max
@@danielkandi4582 Yup, noticed it too. Anyway good to see the legendary DJ Mendoza here. ;-)
Or both :)
Step 1, be Ronnie O'Sullivan
I love how he says, "When you see this (spread reds) the FIRST THING that comes to mind is a 147 ..."
Yeah - maybe for you Ronnie. Most of us are just thinking, "Don't miss the easy red! Don't miss the easy red!"
Gotta get position on the yella
“And you can’t play any better than that” Ronnie declares ✨
I am sure he is referring to the position relative to where one would need rather than boasting about himself.
BrianRDub I don’t mind if a player like Ronnie boasts about himself though 😉
I noticed how the camera didn’t show a red being potted with the plant to the middle pocket. I reckon he missed it and they just cut it out
That’s ok he was just doing it for entertainment so he could show us his thought process and how he goes about it. After all he holds the World record for the most televised 147’s.
With all the editing to make the 147 go quick, I wonder if he missed one or two and had a second go.
Maybe? He was doing it for entertainment to try and show us his thought process. He still holds the World record for the most televised 147’s.
goat
He missed that plant
He landed very far on yellow at 120*
Clever editing
When he talking about the yellow there was a red on the table
There was a guy playing on the next table when he cannoned into the two reds on the top cushion the red was nearer the cushion then moved 😲😲😲😲😲😲
Mind you does it matter he's still the best player that ever played the game .
Thanks ron, now i should be able to start whacking out 147's now. Oh wait......
Ever wonder how to do a 147? Just be great at snooker.
1:59 the red was never in... liar
"There is no excuse..." Sorry Ronnie. I have one. I'm crap.
I took his advice and tried for a 147 the other day but I missed the first red.
Which match was this at 4.41 ???any one knows??
Of course it's edited. He's just giving an insight into it. It's very hard in any sport just to recreate or do anything on tap. Snooker more so as balls can run awkward
can i say it or dare i say it ?.... the man is a robot
สุดยอดความแม่นชอบครับ
I can't even get two pots straight but I decided to watch this lol
“When you’ve got 6,7 free reds, really there is no excuse not to hit 147” only the Rocket can say that !!
You make it look so easy but i never got ahigher break then 42 😅

Well, Ronnie asked what the bonus was for a 147 and I think he had potted but a single red at that point!
If only they had put the pink off it's spot, it would have been so much believable. Still what a player he is. Such a perfect cue action.
04:38 its not many times referees get to say 147 and the frame
I was happy when I got a 32 break
Me when I play snooker .....think 1 shot ahead all the time.....Ronnie: think three
I saw Ronnie O'Sullivan face the click 🤳👆
I can totally do that if I don't miss the first red
Looks easy Ron
2:05 we could have seen that plant
2:54
The reds are not in the positions they were left in when Ron played the cannon...
