I just got back into Snooker after 15 years thanks to this channel. After about 5 weeks of buying another cue and starting again. I went for a couple of hours of practice yesterday and unwind. Got my first 70 break from a line-up. Chuffed. We need more Hendry break building and positional tips. 👍
I cant get over how likeable Stepen Hendry is, his personality was so stoic when he was playing, his personality never really came through, which was required to operate at the level he did. Im really glad he did this channel as we get to see how competitive he truly is and also how much of a gentleman he is. My favorite sportsman and snooker player, keep up the good work sir.
@@Lamster66 When you talk about Davis just shows you know nothing about snooker. Davis would be an over hyped club level player today. A player who played for over 40 plus years and made just one 147 and 355 centuries. Same with Jimmy Hahahahs Hahhaha Hahahaha
Yeah, he plays a game or two BEFORE the challenge, doesn't hop in during the challenge to play randomly. So, why doesn't he put the cue to one side after the shared game?! 😅
I do find the mindset of this sport so interesting, the first thing Gilbert said before he hit a ball was “I just gotta beat 16” his head was already thinking about missing, and that’s what happened straight away
Stephen is the most gracious host.When he was on the tour I didn’t care much for him despite his massive talent,but this channel has made me change my mind.As for Dave,he has the skills to be a higher ranking player,I think he just needs to believe more in himself.I’m enjoying Cue Tips,hope Stephen keeps this going for years to come.
@@andrasszabo1570 HENDRY literally won 4 of this 7 world titles against Jimmy. then ebdon and NIGELBond. World class opponents NOT. If he turned pro in 2000 he wont win 1 world title
Gilbert deserves more cred in my book. He has a fantastic cue action and stroke. Great tempo as well. The straight long blue from the green pocket at the crucible back in 19 or whenever it was is still arguably the most insane snooker shot Ive ever seen.
Dave’s style is very easy on the eye. He’s a class act when he’s in the mood and with 10 centuries in the worlds he just fell short in the semis. Hope he has a great season upcoming.

Really enjoyed Dave's approach to this. Really good controlled aggression to bring the reds into play. Really unlucky a couple of times not to drop on something easy. Great play and being from Tamworth myself always keep an eye on Dave's progress. Looks in good touch to me 😀😀😀😀😀
Gilbert, for me, is one of the smoothest, purest cueists out there and he could win multiple ranking titles if he had belief in himself. It seems to me that he is always underestimating his game, where in fact he has all the shots in the book to become a prolific winner. He absolutely bottled the world semi this year against Wilson, it was his title for the taking...
I wouldn't say he bottled it, he just run out of form. Almost every qualifier has done that, only 2 gone on to win it? Maybe if he doesn't have to qualify next year, he can keep that form going, but only if he can remain motivated for an entire season. He's gone missing so much, I wouldn't want to bet on it.
Definitely didn't bottle it, it was an unbelievable standard from both, was level at 1-1, 2-2, 3-3, 4-4, 5-5, 6-6, 7-7, 8-8 and 9-9 before Wilson finally broke free. Wilson won it for me, he 'broke' Gilbert, he didn't bottle it
@@chrisboggon9467 Gilbert was absolutely horrendous in that 3rd session and missed sitters in every frame, couldn't string a 40 break. Wilson didn't play very well too, but was mostly picking up the pieces. Had Gilbert played his solid match play game, he would have won something like 17-12.
Rory McLeod would be a fascinating chat on the channel, the path he has travelled down in both his snooker and personal life is very different to the typical player.
It would have to be playing pool though. It's not fair to a pool player to have him play on a snooker table. There is video of Effren Reyes playing snooker and he was about as good as me! I'm sure Chris is MUCH better but nowhere near pro-snooker level, or he'd be playing it. First round losers in snooker comps win more than pool comp winners.
I think once you've had the chance to see the tough table challenge, watch other players go about it, it definitely helps. Standing on the shoulders of giants
He has appointment with a shrink for a disease he never had. Stephen Hendry is the biggest BS artist in professional snooker. The guy is history and he hates that.
Call this a tough table… pfft a tough table is one laden full of greens and you ask STEPHEN LEE to make a full clearance. Then you’d see what aggressive really is!
Some lovely pool style play. Get them off the cushions early. Snooker players so negative and stuck in their ways leaving the tough balls to last. Makes no sense in a "challenge"
For me this was the best tough table contribution so far considering how quickly he took all the shots. Well done David!
Hi David is that you?
@@Ex-Pear-Rocker Yes it s, how do I know ? Hendry (or his team) never give anyone a ❤....so it must be Gilbert or a family member.

I love that he plays with a big smile on his face.
i thought the same.....
I think he's gotten his teeth fixed. He used to be pretty snaggle toothed.
Stephen still walking around the table with his cue. Old habits 😂
I don't even understand why he's holding a cue during a tough table challenge.

Great to see Gilbert doing the tough table challenge. Would like to see Matthew Stevens on the channel. Great video Stephen hendry
Matty Stevens is a terrible choice. Get Michael White on or at least Stephen Lee. Give the fans what they want Mr. Henry
From a Ronnie O'Sullivan fan
@@dilksjoel everyone wants Mark Selby
@dilksjoel clearly your just being a troll.
White is in jail and Lee is proven cheat.

Hmm good observation
Noticed that as well and that's exactly what happens!just shows how important the mental side of the game is
Yeah, my head goes constantly.
It's far easier to miss than not and when your mind hears that 'command', it jumps at it, less stress!
He is a serious player when he’s on it… top lad as well 👍🏻
Well done Mr Gilbert! Probably one of the TT challenges that was fun to watch, so quick, smooth and aggressive with his shots 👏🏽

Love Dave's attitude. Keep it simple and score
Hope Dave Gilbert gets his top 16 place back
Who took it from him?
Agreed! A very likeable and down to earth chap!
David Gilbert is one of those hidden snooker assassins

After Ronnie, this is the guy I root the most for.

Well done Dave.

Really like him. Proper down to earth bloke.
What a nice bloke very sincere, good player , Cheers .

Why what has he done?
Dave Gilbert has the most relaxed cue action
Great video and interview 👍
Wish this video had not have been cut short
Excellent episode
why stephen lee is not coming here ?
Another great video👏
Does Hendry carry that cue around 24/7?
Selby is on the cue tips Chanell!!
He might have said Selty
They should've bleeped out his score😂
If he could sort out his consistency and self belief hes got at least 1 world title in him,always thought this. Massively massively underated player
0:22 how does a PRO player miss that, ever! That’s the beauty and mystery of snooker all in one shot.
That pink was NO gimme! Trust me.
I need to pay more attention to this fella, good fast player
I was waiting for Q and A session
love to see Chris Melling on the show.
He would have no problems with the tough pool table challenge.

@@fatroberto3012 Melling played snooker before he went on to play pool. His cue action is also really good
Well played Dave 🖖✨️
Ronnie 🐐
Shame about the spoiler alert of Selby score 😂
Hendry always holding his cue
Incase one of the ruff yins at the back run off with it. They’d cut it down and use it as the gear stick on the combine harvester!
Hendry can you invite Mark Selby to do the challenge as well
Impressive
i like ro watch Dave, want to take a ride over to his new club at swad....
Michael White's recently been in a line up
Why is this video so short? Wanted it to continue for long.
Plz.make a shot video on how to place our hand for.begginer❤
I really appreshade your video❤
Very impressive
Wilson - 49. There are Kyren and Gary Wilson btw
Best of all even if it was just short score wise++++aggressive
Who is Andy Dave referring to? Is he his coach?
Gilbert definitely meant he does the routine 10 times rather than scoring enough to win a frame 10 times in a row with the long pot at the start 😅
Why is Stephen so bad at re-spotting the colours 😭😂
Now we all know Dave shops at Next
Stephen could you try and meet with a guy on RUclips channel “break from life” think it would be a great video
It's all about the jorts!
When was Selby on?!
He said Selty as in Matthew Selt
@@Joeyons oh right. Sounds quite on my phone! 😂
Very quick too
How could nobody notice that the upcoming video will be with mark selby?
Steven even spoiled what selby scored in the tough table challenge lol
Because he said Selty not Selby.
Day 1000 of asking to bring Mark Selby. 😢😢😢
He's got a great cue action. Surprising to hear that he's not confident on mid range straight shots!
when going to Mark Selby's turn? Hopefully😆
147th 147! Can never take that away from him.
I think Stephen must have been in a hurry, I was enjoying watching him potting balls...
can you demonstrate how well a professional can play on a shitty table?
I think once you've had the chance to see the tough table challenge, watch other players go about it, it definitely helps. Standing on the shoulders of giants
What happened? Did Hendry have a train to catch? 🙂
He has appointment with a shrink for a disease he never had. Stephen Hendry is the biggest BS artist in professional snooker. The guy is history and he hates that.
Did Selby even do it?
Next time Chinese play Ding to call I enjoy playing so much
Dave Gilbert is a much better-looking guy in casual clothes than the snooker togs. Also, yes, a good player!
I wonder if anyone will ever clear the table doing the tough table challenge…?
