[@FogToo]

9:56 John Higgins telling the referee that he didn't hit the ball is 1 of the things I really enjoy about Snooker. The gentlemanship the players are showing.

[@SnookerPlanet]

That's how it should be in any sport and in any thing in life. What is the point of winning by cheating

[@FogToo]

@@SnookerPlanet It definitely should be, but take a look at football and there seems to be a trend for players to take a dive. It's a hollow win, but for some, I guess the money incentive does make it easier for some to cheat.

[@stevenmcburney8167]

They would have found out anyways so he was smart to tell the truth

[@brendanm6921]

He has also been guilty of accepting match fixing bribes so...

[@Arrzarrina]

Glad that the top players also copy my shots.

Rajat Goramba Hahahaha yeah that's always my consultation.

[@saleemullah4991]

I can play those shots in just one frame. 😛😛

[@espacogrande9882]

Consultation?

[@itzzAssassiN]

Blue Crossings you mean conclusion

[@adamlea6339]

I feel empathy for these players, it must be gutting to make a rookie mistake when you need to be playing your best. Impressive sportsmanship in snooker when they call their own fouls, even when the referee didn't see them.

[@GroovingPict]

lol, poor Barry always features heavily in these compilations it seems

[@macewindu227]

Watching him in the worlds right now and he’s not changed 😂

[@kevinprior3549]

He takes it all well tho. Seems a top bloke!

[@Toghebon]

I can't believe I've watched so many games and haven't seen one of these

[@frankcastle9866]

It's because they're very rare and most people don't watch every minute of every match

Barry Hawkins has the touch and finesse of a baby elephant .

[@robinthebobin6537]

3:21, John Higgins in the audience I see

[@gr6607]

It's always Hawkins. You know, he's an awesome player but utterly terrible! How does that work ha?

[@leonhardeuler675]

Often players that aren't classically the best potters like Hawkins are good at anticipating what happens if they miss, and can avoid leaving table clearing opportunities against their opponents.

[@paulmainwaring6674]

[@kevinprior3549]

I do like how Hawkins often laughs at his own mistakes or misfortunes, or even his flukes. Comes across as a likeable guy.

,,Where is the cue ball going?" montage, you have to do

[@hermannmeier9405]

1:06 if you do that in a bar game it's a trick shot. Ha ha

[@SimeonIvanov]

It feels so bad watching this, now I'm going see some regular snooker video to fix myself

[@shallowlord]

Is the new chalk the future?

[@qweasd2218]

shallowlord what's the difference between the new and the old one?

[@chrislawrence4237]

Billy - The new chalk is literally about 100x more expensive (is roughly £18 per chalk). The new chalk is supposed to reduce/eliminate kicks... dont know how successful it is but most pros do use it

[@trugamer2488]

It clearly doesn’t work.. why fix what’s not broken? Games been played for years and kicks and miscues are part of it.

[@meschuggemil]

As someone who plays with the new choke, I can confirm that it does (massively) improve the quality of the game. Far less kicks, no chalk marks on the table (which is hugely important for clubs) and overall a better grip on the cue ball. Yes, it's more expensive, but it's not used as fast as the old chalks, so the price is fine. Half of the players in this video who miscued are using the old chalk, so how is it (as Steve Davis said for example) "inferior"?

[@Mitjitsu]

Unless you're a pro or a strong club player. The new considerably more expensive chalk won't make any difference to your game.

[@thecommission6662]

With all those mistakes it's a miracle the tournament ever got completed.

[@andreaschristensen8239]

This is a video that makes me feel pain continuedly clip after clip

[@kevinprior3549]

I do love it whenever there's a miscue or a kick the crowd immediately go "Oooh!"

[@LucaVincent]

the new chalk sent the championship into a tailspin :D

[@louisfain]

Keyren Wilson looks like he’s a really cool guy lol

[@ahmetrayzen]

is it because of chalk mainly???? can overuse of chalk end up miscueing?

[@edison_11_03]

Incredible!

[@LeCharles07]

So chalk is to Snooker what tires are for F1?

[@my3dviews]

Probably the tip is closer to the tires in F1. But if you have bad or not enough chalk, it is like driving on slicks in the rain.

[@lanternman13]

Is the table's cloth wet for any reason?

[@hadesofshadows3622]

I could watch players miscueing all day long

[@Will-sl1iv]

You wouldn’t think that Barry was edged out in the semis by the eventual champ after watching this video.

[@kevinprior3549]

How many miscues was in this tournament?

[@4nw4r]

personally, i have not seen so many miscues in a single tournament ever. I don't know and not sure but i think it comes to the chalk

[@meschuggemil]

Half of the players in this championship who miscued (Ding, Brecel, O'Sullivan, Trump, Allen, maybe Perry and Stevens) are using the old chalk, so how is the new chalk (as Steve Davis said for example) "inferior"? It's far better, read my comment above.

[@MrRywee123]

Muhammad Anwar I blame Allah

[@essaabbas3382]

Is the new chalk the the circular green chalk?

[@Rooopertful]

Some people claim the Taom has less grip, because they just haven't embedded to the tip correctly. You can't just start using it in top of a regular chalk and mix them two. This will result in very little grip.

[@essaabbas3382]

Rooopertful That’s what I’m using now. It’s a pretty good Chalk. The only thing I noticed is that after a while from using it, the core of the Chalk seems very compressed so it doesn’t give much Chalk on the tip. So I have to look at my tip every time I chalk just to make sure there’s enough powder on it

[@stumpy1655]

Can someone explain what a miscue or no chalk means

[@davidcolborne9468]

Good advert for TAOM chalk. At least its only £15 a chunk whereas triangle is 30p.

[@SanjitNagi]

Wtf, why Hawkins seems so bad against other players?

[@z01t4n]

He usually makes it to the semis, remarkably consistent. He's no Ronnie, but a pretty good player, even with these bad miscues and mistakes. Perhaps the pressure at the very top is a bit too much for him.

[@chakko007]

@@z01t4n He sometimes loses focus a bit. That said, it happens very, very rarely. Still enough times to end up in compilations like this, lol.

[@sayeedafridi9747]

What's the outro /

[@ripmeep]

They say when you go to hell, all you hear are misscues

[@KenFullman]

I've yet to hear a clear explanation of how misscues happen. I've seen loads of them, I've experienced loads of them but I've yet to hear a definitive reason of why they occur. If you never chalk your tip that can be a contributing factor, but even if you religiously chalk your tip before every shot, they'll still happen spuriously without any obvious reason. Hitting the white below centre can cause it, yet that's exactly what you'll do to just screw back. If you strike downwards on the white, that can cause it, yet that's exactly what you'll do to execute a masse shot. If you were to edit the clips shown here to pause them at the moment the cue hits the white ball, then guess what happens next, a lot of them you'd predict will be a pretty normal shot. I can't see anything obvious that the player is doing wrong. I've also experienced the same, I can make screw shots of every kind, yet, out of the blue, I'll misscue and not have any idea why. I'd really like to see a high speed camera of a misscue to see exactly what's happening, but I think it would be a difficult thing to do, as I wouldn't even know how to do it deliberately.

[@FB-FILMS]

Hawkins needs to buy a new cue, man!!

[@bechtermunz2921]

Hawkins is still the best!

[@itscadenjbrown2025]

Technically though, Williams is the best

[@harshverma6534]

Their worst shots are my best ones :(

[@suradechsrisawang4774]

this's the common for me. Each frame, I can make the missed cue so many times.

[@RespiratoryDrive-vy9ih]

I accept that hitting a red and potting it but also potting another ball is a foul as per the rule, but I don't understand why that's the rule. I know pool is a completely different game but in pool potting more than one ball unless it's the 8 ball is considered skillful or a fluke but legal. Why is potting a red and a brown not 5 points instead of a foul? Why is the rule that that is a foul?

Why there is so many Barry Hawkins here??

[@Chaswitdacatfishmouf]

What is the standard size of a snooker cue tip?

[@ernoeskeli1139]

Shannon Ekren There is no standard size for a snooker cue tip but generally it varies between 8 and 10 millimeters. I'd suggest not go under 9 millimeters because it's not necessary. A small tip makes it easier to get spin on but with a bigger tip it's easier to cue straight.

[@Chaswitdacatfishmouf]

Erno Eskeli thanks for the info. I shoot a 13mm. (Not snooker) don't seem to miscue often but sometimes come up short in the spin department.

[@Mitjitsu]

9.8mm is close to ideal for snooker.

[@ernoeskeli1139]

Mitjitsu There is absolutely no "ideal" tip size but usually anything around 9,5 mm will do for most amateurs and beginners. Pro players might use a tip close to 8 millimeters but not very often
