Thank you for your comment. I wanted to visualize as much of my thought process in real-time as possible. There's actually a lot more going on in my mind, but it's quite challenging to display everything.
The Yellow was a good shot, but giving spin with opposite hand when the object ball is not close is tough. I would prefer to pot with stun and slight screw for cue ball to hit 2 cushions and have Green in the Green pocket.
Being able to position the cue ball in the center of the table with two cushions from this distance and angle is impressive. I wouldn't have the confidence to attempt it, even with my dominant hand.
Hi! I would like to say that your content is really useful, especially with the multiple camera setup and the positional markings of where you expect the cue ball to land for the next shot. A small recommendation that I would like to give is to show the shot power that you apply to each shot so as to understand the reaction of the cue ball while applying spin. Love from India!
Thank you for the comment and suggestion. Editing the current videos already takes quite a long time, so it's challenging to add more display elements. As for the shot power, please judge based on how much the cue ball rolls.
Thanks for putting the effort to make this awesome video! I realised extreme side is rarely used, it’s usually just a trace of side in most of the time 👍🏻
I’m still very weak at the aiming and judging the potting angle. Always confused. Sometimes potting well or just missing thick or thin. Please guide. Do you recommend Ghost ball? Open to other replies..
I think the following videos by Coach Barton are close to my approach to aiming, so you might find them helpful: ruclips.net/video/DsgFDwVdjxY/видео.html ruclips.net/video/JqM1dAxvTa0/видео.html
The following is the response I gave when someone else asked about a small amount of side spin in the past. Feel free to take a look if you're interested. Regarding the slight side spin, while the priority is often given to the spin that changes the angle rebounding from the cushion, I add a small amount of side spin to stabilize the path of the object ball, achieving a more consistent potting. In English, this is referred to as "helping side." Please check out the following videos for reference: ruclips.net/video/Dfo_2qAXnaw/видео.html&ab_channel=BarryStarkSnookerCoach ruclips.net/video/WS7wtFQyf5g/видео.html&ab_channel=MichaelHoltSnookerCoaching Regarding 'Helping Side,' it's not something I consciously practiced and gained but rather something I unconsciously picked up through playing a lot of billiards. So, there isn't a specific practice method that I can recommend. For starters, I suggest not being fixated on hitting the center every time but rather getting a feel for which impact point is more likely to pot the ball depending on the angle. As mentioned by the coaches in the videos, not all professionals use side spin, as some prefer hitting the center of the ball. It's not something universally recommended for everyone. What works best is something only you can determine for yourself based on your own preferences and imaging.
O Brasil já teve alguns jogadores profissionais no circuito principal no passado, então acredito que o ambiente do snooker está muito mais avançado do que no Japão. No Japão, há menos de 50 mesas de snooker em todo o país.
It depends on the situation, but generally, you need to always think about what you'll do with the next two balls. Practice a lot and play games, and as you become able to visualize what you're imagining, it becomes enjoyable, and you naturally improve.
@@Sasa_snooker I agree 100%. Most of the time I think one shot ahead or I consider an area I want to land on that’s it. So I can’t make bigger breaks or clearances as often as I want and that’s frustrating. What would you suggest to practice thinking shots ahead ?
I'm not sure what level you're at or what kind of practice you usually do, but I think it's important to focus on practicing shots where you have to think about break-building. I would recommend practicing by setting the red balls in random positions. ・Open table (you can try following this video: ruclips.net/video/89zGVGL67SM/видео.html) ・On my channel, there's a playlist called 'Spot Practice,' and trying Level 1 from there would be beneficial. (ruclips.net/p/PLcM2KD18IT5_oDwxuejsqKA3eFls3d7SA) This practice forces you to think about position even on simple pots. While practicing straight-lineups and center shots is beneficial, focusing solely on shots without much thought won't improve your knowledge and experience in break-building.
I've watched some of your channel's videos. You're really skilled. My apologies. Since Spot Practice goes up to level 5, give it a try. You might already be doing it, but I think it's also good to steadily tackle difficult drills like X, V, C, and so on.
@@Sasa_snooker Sorry. There are translation problems. The training is as follows: in a line system, you put the red ball closest to the cushion in the pocket. The next red ball is the next closest and so on. The challenge is not to score 147 points. The challenge is to put the red balls in the pocket from the closest to the cushion to the furthest. My friends try to do this but never succeed. I believe you can easily do it
Is it a practice similar to the videos below? ruclips.net/video/q6jpqtcsRY0/видео.html ruclips.net/video/ZnaDCgmkOBQ/видео.html Or is it a practice of potting balls in order from the rail closest to the ball, like in this video? ruclips.net/video/R9EpyIXDRAc/видео.html
The videos I publish only showcase successful practice sessions, so while it may seem like I'm a pro, my level is considerably lower compared to main tour professionals. When I watch top players aiming for the main tour like Iulian Boiko, Florian Nüßle, Antoni Kowalski, etc., I can't imagine winning against them. Even when I played against a former main tour pro, I could hardly win any frames. The biggest reason is the economic aspect. It's incredibly expensive and time-consuming to compete in numerous tournaments worldwide to become a pro. Even if I were to obtain a main tour card, it's challenging to sustain a living and activity in the UK without being quite wealthy or having a stable income. While there are players in China and Thailand who are at main tour level, they may not be trying outside their local competitions for various reasons.
POV video showing cue action and cue position on white ball plus caption showing game plan, snooker teaching never get this good. Amazing!
Thank you for your comment! I'm glad to hear.
Like everyone’s said, the detail and how it’s seamlessly shown is amazing!
Thank you very much!
What a video. Have never seen such level of details before. Showing plans of 2 shots ahead with such details of ball path. Brilliant
Thank you for your comment. I wanted to visualize as much of my thought process in real-time as possible. There's actually a lot more going on in my mind, but it's quite challenging to display everything.
Not only was this super informative and well put together, that was also an amazing break!
Thank you very much!
What a yellow with the left hand. Great player lovely straight cue action
Thank you for your comment. I feel more confident hitting with my left hand than using the rest.
The Yellow was a good shot, but giving spin with opposite hand when the object ball is not close is tough. I would prefer to pot with stun and slight screw for cue ball to hit 2 cushions and have Green in the Green pocket.

My confidence is picked upward. It really helps my practice.❤
Thank you for your comment. I'm glad it was helpful.❤
Aqui no Brasil sempre divulgo seus videos para todos os jogadores de snooker que conheço. Sempre gostam!!!!
Obrigado! Fico feliz em ouvir isso. Por curiosidade, adicionei legendas em português a este vídeo. Se quiser, dê uma olhada.
So nice!
すげー! Great shot with spider with a touch of screw.
I didn't think snooker was popular in Japan.
この役立つと印象的な動画見せてくれてありがと🎱✌️
ありがとう！Thank you!
Snooker is not even recognized in Japan. Japanese viewers of my videos make up about 1% of the total.😓
Amazing break. And thanks for editing in what you’re planning to do with the cue ball for each shot
Thank you for your comment!
Big fan of the lines/arrows showing what the thinking is 2-3 shots ahead 👍
Thank you for your comment. 👍
Indeed, in snooker, envisioning ahead is crucial in selecting shots.
Fantastic video, very insightful thanks to the visualization of cue ball travel. Great skills bro
Thank you for your comment.
Straight cueing ..well played every time & every shot 🤝love to watch and salute 🫡focus and game plan superb 🤩
Thank you very much for your comment. i'm glad to hear.😁

great break. good left hand too
Thank you very much

Thank you for your comment. It's challenging to stabilize shots when using a lot of side spin.
@@Sasa_snookerplease keep up with the awesome work! We snooker lovers can learn a lot from you 😉
Thank you brian. I'll do my best😁
That was great , very helpful and what a player .
Thank you very much😄
Excellent execution again and thank you so much for sharing !! Forgive me for asking, do you participate in any other sports ?
Thank you! I'm not currently involved in any other sports. I do engage in weight training and yoga, though.
Great video mate! Excellent job! ⚪

why do you put side spin on shots when you arent coming off a cushion? e.g., @12:22

No Brasil agora que está se desenvolvendo ainda é um esporte muito fechado sem condições ainda de se tornar muito práticado
O Brasil já teve alguns jogadores profissionais no circuito principal no passado, então acredito que o ambiente do snooker está muito mais avançado do que no Japão. No Japão, há menos de 50 mesas de snooker em todo o país.
finally found the best tutorial
I'm really glad to hear that you feel that way.
Great player!

Sasa, have you tried training the line system on the red ball sequence from the black ball?
Could you please explain what that practice entails? It would be helpful if you could refer me to any videos or resources on it.

Brother I’m telling you, it’s time to turn professional ! 💯
Thank you for the comment. However, I can't become a professional player.
Why can’t you come a professional player
I'm significantly inferior compared to the professionals on the main tour. Also, financial reasons play a major role.
He is Japanese snooker prayer.
AMAZING !!!!!
Thank you!!!
Well bro
Nice
Thank you
cool
Thank you
