Nigel Bond offers a sense of dignity to any match.Quiet demeanour but a great competitor none the less.Sorry to hear he retired,I enjoyed his style of playing.Another great upload Cesar.👍
I play in the Chesterfield and District Snooker League and have done for the past 44 years , Nigel is one of our old boys and is a regular player in our League Division 1 . I know him personally and have played against him quite a few times 🙂
@@docsen9777 Away from the Professional game Nigel is more relaxed and plays a lot better , if he could have ignored the pressure of high profile Snooker and been more calm he would have easily been in the top five players in the World . Some players handle the pressure of being on TV better than others .
@@PhilipKerry part of being a Champion is the pressure and how you deal with it....no doubt Bond is a gentleman but saying if only ...etc...only means he lacked the quality that ALL Champions possess........
Yank here fascinated with snooker and have a ?. If you're shooting a red with a cannon into the pack and another red goes in in the process that's a legal shot and not a foul or is the second red made on the shot just considered a fluke? I noticed the score keeper counted both reds with the score going from 12-14. I know if you make a color on that cannon, it is considered a foul and points assessed according to the color made.
@@tanmanlovespool Yes, you are correct. You can pot more than one red, and each "counts". You don't have to pot the red you are going for, but as you have noticed, anything else, like inadvertently potting a colour is a foul. Edit: You must pot the colour you intend, and if they are so close that it's not obvious which you are aiming for, you must nominate the colour.
Another "head-shaker", ROS cue ball once again is on a string. Nigel Bond is a excellent player, but the title is perfect! Thanks a lot Cesar, keep em coming, I'm lovin it!
I've decided I want to play a match against Ronnie. First to 5 (like this one was), and I get 100 points to start every frame. I'd still lose but it would be fun as hell watching ROS make 5 straight centuries, while I sit and twiddle my thumbs from the best seat in the house.
Great as always Cesar..🙂 You could see Ronnie just wanted to get it over with and maybe go for a run. Still, Nigel got some great long shots and nice cuts. Very enjoyable match.
Thanks as ever for the wonderful upload. I know a lot of people were critical of it, but I really enjoyed the drama of the Allen Vs Day final. Would love to see a Cesar version of same #suggestion
Ronnie's break to bring it to 3-0 was brilliant! Unusual that Nigel doesn't appear to favour either eye when looking down the shot. Neither eye is in line with the cue... A fair bit of movement on the shot too, especially when playing with power. Some great long pots by Nigel, but he always screwed back to baulk, didn't commit to the shot. How many times did Desislava say "Nigel Bond, one"... Nigel was a great professional thruout his long career. Started his career way back in 1989.. Wish him all the best....
Yeah, your videos are really always enjoyable because of the interesting informations of players, records and shots. You are playing yourself? Where are you come from?
Ronnie’s psychological tactics are brilliant. In first frame after Bond posts 36 Ronnie comes in and cleans table. He misses the blue on purpose just to let the old feller know that he is in control of his fate. Could have broken a century but decides to forego it. All the opponent can think is “what a dick. “He’s easing up on me.” 😂
Speaking of age, Ronnie is simultaneously the youngest and oldest person to win the world championship. *Edit I was mistaken, Stephen Hendry's the youngest world champion, Ronnie's the youngest to win a ranking title. Thank you Haseeb World.
@@hasjava I'm saying I initially confused 'ranking' title with 'world' title. Ronnie won the UK championship at 17, making him the youngest 'ranking' title holder.
It's so refreshing to see a game of snooker being played, without having to sit through boring commentators spoiling the game with their verbal diarrhoea.

I thought that too tbh - literally exclaimed "oh you /can/ sink two reds at once". I figured I should just update my (limited) understanding of the rules - this is a high-level match, and the ref definitely saw it (she called 2 points instead of 1).
Neil Robertson watching in the background from the other table... At first i thought it was a little girl in the crowd, who would perhaps jump in the match. 😂

I from Afg so I always watch games of Ronnie's, but I love game of this man.😍
The World Wide Web makes it possible. Greetings to Afg.
Transitions makes the vid soooo much more smooth and flowing
Thank u so much
Yours is the only snooker channel I watch due to the amazing editing work you put in.
I agree
He does good work, that's for sure.
Same here. Great work Cesar!

a great job of editing and making it all flow so smoothly, thank you

At least we got to see Nigel's farewell. Fine gentleman.
Thank you for doing this. Bond is a legend.
Best editing channel ever! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Master level snooker from Ronnie and then the top notch editing to go with it 👌👌🫡🫡
Thank you for the perfect video, perfect sound and perfect editing.
This is the best snooker channel on RUclips. 👍
I like the explanations of shots.
just add my voice to the many others that praise your editing, attention to detail and overall excellence, thank you from a snooker tragic
Great editing with the faint black at 2m 10s... Fantastic attention to detail.
How does Ronnie make snooker looks so simple. He is definitely super human. He humbles his opponents every time.
Another Excellent game a job well done Roneo Sullivan is a genius I wish I could meet him someday

Best snooker content on youtube!
Honestly this channel is amazing!!
Great as always Cesar..🙂

Perfect Editing brother.. Brilliant work 🌹
36:24 - that cue ball's path is just beautiful
I thought that was their first meeting. But great video for sure. Best snooker channel hands down
Smart subtitle. Nice!

R . O Sullivan é sensacional é uma máquina de jogar snooker. Obrigado.
Quality matters thanks mate 🤟🏻
Stellar editing!
Champion of the snooker
Nice to see a little bit of snooker in between shots of the audience
Great edit
Another great pick from the Rokit's collection and again more brilliant editing Cesar👍
The Slayer..and the GOAT....
Yeah, your videos are really always enjoyable because of the interesting informations of players, records and shots. You are playing yourself? Where are you come from?
Glad you enjoy it! I used to play pool, I'm from Peru.
Mais um show de apresentação da parte do O'Sullivan...
Excelente vídeo.
Robertson's also enjoying Ronnie's game😊, peeping from other side of table

13:12 mother and son smile❤❤❤❤
El más grande, el mejor.👏👏👏👏
3:32 Would be the highlight of any amatuers career.
Relentless focus, god mode, best player, unbeatable at his best, just about unbeatable near his best.
Hmm...the words 'not a fair fight' seem appropriate here. The gulf between them was too large.
old Nige definitly played better than a 5-1 would entail
No one is appreciating the referee, doing her work so beautifully and her voice...🤩
creepy
How she says 10😍😍
What a bunch of creepy pedos
I appreciate the very cute girl Desi

I did have the same thought: it could be called "respect "
@@bullsnutsoz, A M in T isn't calling this respect, but if someone eases up on you, they're not really a dick.
It’s crazy to think bond actually got to a world final
Snooker is second nature for Ronnie. He plays big tournaments like it's practice. White ball dance on his fingers.
His name is Bond, Nigel Bond!!
Moments like 13:20 in these videos ❤️❤️
Speaking of age, Ronnie is simultaneously the youngest and oldest person to win the world championship.
*Edit I was mistaken, Stephen Hendry's the youngest world champion, Ronnie's the youngest to win a ranking title. Thank you Haseeb World.
Ronnie is the oldest world champion not youngest. Hendry is the youngest world champion at age 21
@@hasjava You're right, my mistake, Ronnie's the youngest to win a ranking title.
@@LunchThyme again u r saying youngest. Not youngest man, he is the oldest world title holder now.

4:02 what's Neil looking for ? 😂😂😂
HAHAHA check out Neil at 4:04 from the other table!
Ронни великолепен!
Wow that Ronnie guy is good . An up and coming rising star I think 🤔
Neil Robertson sneaking on Ronnie 😂❤
Robertson watching 😂😂😂
It's so refreshing to see a game of snooker being played, without having to sit through boring commentators spoiling the game with their verbal diarrhoea.
Nigel should play for the Finedon Cons
Neil Roberrtson is so interested in his game he's watching Ronnie instead.

SOUNDED like a kick on the blue in first frame preventing the ton
He is on such a god level that people "know" he will just do it..
He is playing slow .No
He is playing serene
Nigel plant at 20:57 was impressive but aside from that the man lacks power. Maybe it's cuz he's older, idk. Just can't seem to really move the white
33:19. Sank two red balls (left near, right middle) on one shot. Isn’t that a foul?
It's not a foul if he was playing to pot a red..
Potting 2 reds isn't a foul in the same shot. Unless you done it by potting red in next shot after.
No not a foul, you get 2 points (for the 2 reds) and just carry on as normal colour next.
I thought that too tbh - literally exclaimed "oh you /can/ sink two reds at once".
I figured I should just update my (limited) understanding of the rules - this is a high-level match, and the ref definitely saw it (she called 2 points instead of 1).
This uncle better no need challenger Ronnie, 🤣
Always worth watching a match when Desi's refereeing.
I expected a better performance from Bond...... Nigel Bond !
4:00 Robertson peeping
Would love to see Ronnie play Efren Reyes in 9 ball
27:16 the man behind ronnie in the crowd is holding his arm by his belly 💀
Neil Robertson watching in the background from the other table... At first i thought it was a little girl in the crowd, who would perhaps jump in the match. 😂
so nice without the commentators
Is this the seniors tour that guy had whiter hair than me and I’m 74😂
Good
รอนนนี่มหาเทพ
Imagine the dread players feel in tournament, finding out theyve been slotted against The Rocket !!! 🤣
рональде,ви найкращий!привит з украини.
this bond guy certainly isnt James!
game starts @03:04
why is John Mcenroe playing with Ronnie?
Who is watching from other side?
Neil Robertson
I thought the Bonds were shooters 😂😂 looks like we gat James bond the snookist😂😂😂
Ah Mr Bond. Shaken, but not stirred.
anh trai giỏi lắm
Where's the commentators commentary. It sounds so dull, quiet and boring without it. I hope your next video has commentary in it.
Играю в русский бильярд, но смотреть только снукер!!!
Nigel bond stance is weird , something about it that looks wrong that I can’t quite figure out. ???
Neither eye seems lined up with the cue
From where they get all these videos can anybody help? 😴
Красава
I can't understand you pot a good red keep snookering behind a colour when the colour looks an easier ball than the red 🤔
Isn't 33:25 a foul? He knocked in 2 red balls in one shot. I thought that was a foul.
Класс
помниш смотрели
Foul at 33:24 ?
Ref called 2 points there, so clearly she saw it. I'm happy to trust that she knows the rules better than I do.
@@patheddles4004 oh agreed. I just didn’t know you could hit 2 reds in at once
Bond n'a pas été représentatif de son nom !
that fucking ref is smoking!
EZ GAME
