ALEX HIGGINS WAS SIMPLY THE BEST SNOOKER PLAYER IN THE WORLD AND STILL IS LOVE YOU ALWAYS R.I.P ❤❤❤😂

Hendry in his prime was unstoppable until his game fell apart

Alex Higgins should've won more than he actually did during his career. If he'd played his all-around game rather than pleasing the crowd the majority of the time, he'd have been much more consistent. He threw more tournaments away because of this. Davis said himself when he played his all-around game his safety was even better than his.

Burroughes and Watts or Burwatt champion cue I think? He had a load of work done to it in the mid 80s, converted it to 2 piece had a new butt spliced on it, it was like Triggers broom! My local cue maker still has the butt section from it.

Love these two, Once got told I "walk round the table like Jimmy White" Great compliment but I wonder how many drinks he'd laced to make that sort of observation 😂

I think I used KZbin's own filter to slow it down, so it probably was an early AI algorithm which was adding frames and smoothing or something. There's another upload of the original, which you can play slow I suppose.

@ozzie-sk9dh 5 ай бұрын

I never noticed it before but Alex was a genius on the centre pockets and used them a lot for his breaks where the more orthodox method is to pot in the corners as much as you can.

If only Alex had learned a lesson from this great win. He really was trying to be a better person on and off the table at the time but Alex, being Alex, couldn't stop himself. To me, he'll always be the greatest though.

wish i cud go back to 1983. i was 1. id change everything i ever did. if i ever walked left, id walk right!! nowadays day to day life is super fast so many demands, replies,requests, parking queues, overpopulation, renters in streets that were in 1983 communitys, we had the troubles but we had michael jackson Thriller and Billie Jean and top of the pops and decent bands including belfast band The Adventures making waves in england, todays life most young people just deal with social media's pure pressure to be someone or something feel the pressure to be seen to be someone. im 41 now yet life is non-stop plus theres no good new bands on the go its all rap or quirky advert music nonsense. even man city are actually winners these days and we have massive queue's in hospitals, dentists and gps over-run. Id go back to 1983 in a heartbeat. rant over lolo sorry!!! At least we have Ronnie Osullivan, no one watching tis match that evening had a clue there was a wee genius on the way!

Those 2 masse shots Alex played in the first frame shown here are a great argument for the miss rule...not saying he did that intentionally, but he certainly gained an advantage by playing them that way and not risking changing the situation of the balls if he was unsuccessful.
