Jimmy White 155 Break @ thesabahproperty.com

[@roysykes6774]

3 cameras - 3 missed shots - nicely edited. Not taking away from the video though - nice one. Jimmy is a legend!

[@davidkendall5988]

What a man!!! He was my fav player before Ronnie took the world by storm...me dad maintained that Jimmy was the best player out of Ronnie,Alex Higgins and himself...after seeing this I am starting to think maybe if Jimmy had been better under pressure he would have been multiple world champ...The man just decided to make a 155 for God's sake!! Respect!!!

[@kookyflukes9749]

I'll still never know how Jimmy white never won the world championship. It's an an enigma in life

[@daveblack3728]

Everyone knows why Jimmy never won, it's common knowledge.

[@T-Tuohy]

Dave Black please enlighten everyone.

[@josephelliasmine125]

@@T-Tuohy he had a tendancy to miss crucial shots and his opponents took no prisoners. That's who Jimmy was unfortunately what he accomplished is great enough on its own but he never manged to handle the pressure of those 6 world finals.

[@CaribSurfKing1]

@@josephelliasmine125 He avoided the narcotics and alcohol mostly during the World Champs. However, as you say, when he got nervous, he sped up, as we all do. This means you stop thinking and checking. Hendry, Parrott and Davis who beat him, were the opposite. When Higgins beat him in 82 semi, Higgins was taking narcotics to focus him and made him play incredible at the end of matches. Jimmy just didn't have the robot control mind that all the sports greats have

[@chrishearfield234]

Because compared to Hendry he’s shite

[@Voltanaut]

A very interesting use of editing.

[@Yellowswift3]

Nice to see Alan Mcmanus there. Great break. :)

[@MBCoffeeNutter]

Well spotted! I reckon you're spot on!

[@topneorej]

If only he could have edited that missed black against Hendry in the WC final;-D

[@Flexografenherbert]

I played with him two years ago while a exhibition in Germany. I had the bingo in the ticket lottery to play a match with him. Sure, I had no chance but it was a great pleasure and honour for me. He is a very kindle guy and gentlemen. By the way Michaela Tabb was the referee of the match, a pleasure too. He won 66:13 ;-)

[@bazpearce9993]

I got a 148 on WSC2005 for PC lol. Accidently potted 2 reds so missed out on the extra black dang it!

[@ehsnils]

I'm still waiting for that to happen in a match that's recorded.

[@josephamego1528]

If it's true it was utterly amazing, I doubt very much that McManus would lend his self to a con, evidently a 155 was confirmed of another player at Stoke in the UK. I've downloaded it so I'll study it more closely.

[@weepingscorpion8739]

They do reference another 155 in Stoke at the end of this video so that is probably the same one?

[@johnateen1]

this was edited, no doubt. but still good to watch

[@jbdoggy]

Jimmy for sure wasnt short of ability & talent. His biggest weakness was his inability to hold his nerves at crucial moments. In fact he couldve even beaten Alex Higgins in 82 & met Reardon in the final, but missed a crucial long pot by a mile. By his own admission too, he partied a lot more than he should have.

[@danielkandisnooker7990]

edited. A few edits are actually very obvious, a ball suddenly changing speed after its hit a cushion etc...

[@JustMitchPool]

Cushions can do that for many reasons. 'Dead cushion bounce' 'negative spin on cue ball'. Then can even do the opposite, 'unattended big bounce of cushion' 'positive spin on cue ball'. A little information for you but yes there's multiple camera that doesn't help people views. It should of been one camera continuous recording the 155.

[@simonwebster4271]

I was there trust me it happened

[@davidr3789]

@@simonwebster4271 no you weren't and not it didn't Sausage Tits

[@steviethomas1988]

No matter what you say jimmy is a natural talent and Tony meo too who learnt their snooker as youngsters playing for "the lights" and very little coaching just playing playing playing ! Not like the kids of today taught like robots and potting machines . Well that's great but we will NEVER see the likes of White and Meo I feel never again as that era can't come around again for all the academy's that are about all over the world teaching robot snooker! There is no one bar Ronnie will ever come close to the 100% pure NATURAL talent that Alex Higgins jimmy white and Tony Meo ever had and I bet we don't see these kind of players ever come through again

[@jacklumb269]

Stevie Thomas what do you keep talking about meo for lol

[@steviethomas1988]

The 4 players I mentioned were and are the most NATURAL Snooker players and also MEO was top 10 in the world I played against 2 of them white and Meo in the late 70s and were both the most natural players we have ever seen

[@g0ldschlager]

Playing by the book, and the book is JIMMY.

[@simongarribaldi9267]

Jimmy White will win the World Championship.

[@Vanewolf29]

Under the rules of snooker what sets up a free ball situation?

[@AwesomeAdzy]

+Vanewolf29 if other player fouls and leaves his oponent without being able to hit a red full ball

[@TonyFisherPuzzles]

Or colour ball if all reds have gone.

[@benrichards399]

Jimmy always seems to aim at a point on the cue ball, but hits a different part when taking the shot. Has he always done that?

[@levigriffiths6942]

Yes he has its not really taught as its not great technique. If you notice when he plays top he still aims roughly in the middle of the white until the last feather before the strike.

[@staezione]

6:55 how on earth did that cueball reach position for the green? Underhit it by a mile

[@jamesadcock5235]

Tim Staes yea your right

[@ultramuteable]

How did the free ball occur? :)

[@michaelolson6982]

The odds of getting a foul that will leave 15 reds snookered and getting a free ball situation is extremely low hence it has probably only happened less than ten times in professional match circumstances, not to mention total clearance with just black ball.

[@commentscrew]

Oh wow. thats cool. That would been a thrill. thats awesome :)

[@BarmyTwubble]

I dont see the red change position tho, the red by the blue was always there, clearly viable at 5:35 on the long table camera angle, not when he takes that shot tho, then at 5:44 its visable when he takes the shot there so it looks like a new red has appeared. I might be wrong but I aint got time to check anymore, I need a poo cya

[@JalandharShere]

he didnt do this in one go. ive noticed a red which changes position so im under the presumption that he missed a red and then had it respotted and took shot again. freeze video on 5.35 and 5.44. red is in front of pink in first shot and then level with pink in second frame shot.

[@commentscrew]

fucking legend. The closest I got to playing Jimmy is with a cue I have with his name on it lol

[@jaygan7399]

This took hours to complete and then edited together to makn it look like he really got it

[@alexandersimpson3638]

I could have so easily been part of this break, in that I’d have be the one giving away the free ball at the beginning.... 🤪 lol 😂

[@cmgitman]

you are right

[@mohammedasemhussein2207]

Just trimmed video, not edited

[@cuedoscues3074]

Yellow was the biggest giveaway ...lol

[@mkwpompeyfc]

i didnt notice any difference in red position ??

[@maxandshakira]

Did he really do this without having to do any retakes or cuts ?

[@hemmojito]

I'm gonna drop I'm gonna stun and I'm gonna make a 155. As simple as that. XD Soo cool.

[@michaelnewman5625]

But his 147 at the crucible was very nice!!

[@kinkokonko]

If you love him less, you have a problem. Jimmy/Alex hold people in their games. Win or Lose.

[@cllcn888]

I think the main point is that if you want to encounter a situation like this, the pack must be spread like that. Logically, you cant have a scene that the pack is intact but a freeball is called. Your opponent and you have to do several safety exchanges until he misses and snookered you to end up like this. Unless he is retarded to miss the pack on the opening shot. So I think the guys who said this is not difficult hadnt thought the point i concern.

[@MrUnterward]

nonsense it's cut all over the place. why not show it in one take. I could get a 147 doing this. it might still take 5 days of editing but I could. LOL

[@etclarke]

this is an embarrassment to the legend that was Jimmy White. What a shame it's come to making fake videos on the internet for a legend like him.

[@PomBare]

I hate how people constantly mistake the intention of these videos. Thorne and O'Sullivan made them and everyone talks about the cuts as if they were deceiving us. It's a hypothetical break, set up as advice on how to make a 147 (155 on this occasion).

[@kieralexander]

PomBare agreed

[@PhilipKerry]

+MrUnterward It is one take , if you watch the video properly you can see that they filmed it with several different cameras positioned all around the table . They used the different angles from those cameras and made it into one video , all in one take but using the footage from several different cameras .

[@DM-kv9kj]

If you watch any major televised tournament they cut all over the place too. Must be a big snooker conspiracy! I bet aliens are involved too!

[@tarmac1697]

Alex Higgins made a 16!red clearence but didn't make a max 145 or 146

[@EFreD-ed4ds]

Tarmac1 In fact, Higgins did achieve a 155, butit was in a non-official game and wasn't registered. The only registered 16-ball break was performed by Steve James, playing against Alex Higgins(!) at the 1990 World Championships.

[@jamesadcock5235]

If Jimmy was that good he wouldn't get beat

[@JrSlaya]

Take 34

[@danielkandi7264]

the red at 3:18 actually looks to be foul'd. push shot, the white ball follows to the black a bit quick and same pace as objectball.

[@Lynch2910]

Is the highist break not 147

[@bacardi2324]

yes, but is the opponent does a foul and you are snookered on all reds, then you have a free ball right? So, you can use any colour as a red ball (which in effect makes it like there are 16 reds on a table, not 15 like normal. Pot all with blacks plus colour clearance, and you get 155 :-O

[@Lynch2910]

thanks alot didint thinkof that :)

[@JustAlex1994]

+Sean Lynch He says it in the video?.

[@Lynch2910]

Sean see you 🐕🐕 Toby is the best lol

[@seanbond405]

HILARIOUS.. Bet yi he missed the Broon 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@RajeshJustaguy]

There could be a few reasons.. not just because he missed.. it could also be because the speech was not perfect.. or they didnt get a good angel on the shot... Its possible :)

[@phanatadashi]

its pretty difficult to get a free ball with all the reds on the table in the first place

[@JalandharShere]

jamie cope did this in a practise game

[@JaYb97716]

+JalandharShere So did Jimmy White

why doesnt ronnie do stuff like this??? i would watch....

[@michaelnewman5625]

Pockets are the size of buckets

[@vaandamme]

Jepp, they moved the red ball closest to pink at 5:39 to 5:44 It doesn't mean they are cheating, but it's pity we can't know for sure what the real deal is.

[@chessguru900]

If I find a good editor I will make a 1555 break in a matter of a day or so.

[@nickwatson8641]

Just 191 reds, 191 blacks, and the colors.

[@bernarddover1442]

it NEVER HAPPENED !! HE MISSED 8 SHOTS !! GOOD CAMERA WORK

[@topneorej]

Of course it was edited. Predict a 147 and then do it? Only Ronnie can;-)

what are you talking about? all I said was he had his chance & didn"t take it! Thats a fact...

mantap!!!!!!!

[@dan32113]

lets be honest Jimmy should"ve won in 92 he was 14-8 up for fucks sake. In the 94 Final 17-17 on a break of about 30 misses the black of the spot. He had his chance mate & blew it. I love White, but he didn"t do the buisness in the World Final. Thats the truth!

[@PTS-THX1138]

.....How Jimmy White was never World Champion baffles me to this day.......

nope its in the same place

seriously this is not hard to do when you get balls spread like that

O sullivan fanboy alert !!!"!

[@amarsbarr]

Jimmy White great player, but also great failure

[@Lynch2910]

Is the highist break not 147

[@thomasheal6286]

+Sean Lynch The Highest break is 147 under normal circumstances. A 155 break is possible if the opponent fouls and gives a free ball away. The first colour is classed as the extra red and then a black is 8 and then 15 reds and fifteen blacks and all the colours gives a 155.
