Ronnie O'Sullivan | Snooker Maximum Breaks 147 #10

Ronnie O'Sullivan | Maximum Breaks 147 #10
2010 World Open | Ronnie O'Sullivan v Mark King
Completed in 9 minutes and 34 seconds.
This was O'Sullivan's record 10th official 147 maximum breaks, however he had to be persuaded by referee Jan Verhaas to play the final black, as he became aware that there was no distinct prize money for a maximum break in the tournament and planned to end his break at 140.
There was only a £4,000 prize for the highest break of the tournament.
* This footage very terrible, already try my best remastered, so sorry ! 😣😣😣

A snooker is a trap, basically. In any form, your trying to block your opponent from shooting at the ball/balls they're meant to. So, in 8 ball, you would get it behind a solid, assuming your opponent is stripes. It's a very hard thing to do. Lol

Such an angry final black. He's just like "ugh, FINE", slams it in and then pretty much just storms out. Volatile chap at times, but jeez that skill... I didn't realise until I saw another comment here and then watched it at 0.25x myself, but that final black didn't even touch the table - he literally jumped it straight into the pocket. And he was already turning away from the table before it even landed.

[@johannsebastianbach3411]

Rules for people who have discovered snooker thanks to the algorithm: 15 red balls, each worth one point. 6 colored balls with points: yellow 2, brown 3, green 4, blue 5, pink 6, black 7. Until you’re out of red balls, the players need to pot one red and one colored. A break is the sum of your points within a single turn at the table. So if ronnie made it up to say 80, then missed one, and luckily for him the opponent missed again with no points, and ronnie went back to the table and did a max 147, he wouldn’t have made a max break, only a 147. Cause it was done with two turns. So to do a max break you gotta clear the whole table in the most optimal way during a single turn. Since you gotta alternate between red and colored, and of all the colored balls black gives the most points, the max break is done with red-black combos until you run out of reds. After all the reds are gone, you pot one more black for the last red, then clear the colored balls off the table in the ascending order of points. There’s also a thing called “snooker”, that gives the game its name, where you make a “safe” shot by hiding the cue ball so that the opponent doesn’t have a direct line to any reds, so they’ll hit a colored one and faul etc etc.. red: 1 point, black: 7 points: 15 reds in total --> 15*(1+7) = 120 points after all the reds are gone and assuming you managed to get a black after each time you pot a red colored balls: 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 = 27 120 + 27 = 147 the max break (and also the max number of points on the table without snookers and fouls)

[@scottwallbank4794]

That's the nature of snooker, you miss a shot, you may not get another chance that frame if the reds have opened up enough. You're relying on your opponent losing position of the cue ball and missing a shot.

[@LegDayLas]

@@scottwallbank4794 It's the nature of pool as well, not really that odd. Any time a game allows consecutive turns for success it's expected that a perfect game will happen, and the competition will be left doing nothing. At least in this case he had the chance to run the table first, or at least land the cue somewhere that would prevent Ronnie from making a red. Since he failed this, there is really no excuse of "he never even had a chance to fight back"

[@johnp515]

To put it in perspective, snooker was invented in 1875 and the first official 147 wasn’t scored until 1955. The first televised maximum was in 1982, so to call it when only a couple of balls have been potted and nonchalantly make it is indeed mind boggling.

For people who randomly stumbled upon this. When he was young there was a game where he was able to acore the maximum (147) points, but then asked how much would be the prize. When he found out it is only 10k he intentionaly scored only 146, because he didnt think it appropriate for the skill needed to do the 147

Snooker is turn based, like normal billard. A break measures their points scored in 1 turn. In snooker, you need to hole a red ball and a colored ball one after another, with black giving the most points. Thus, a maximum break is alternating red-black scores and in the end doing the colors in order.

[@ColdSword816P]

@@ColdSword816P no the color balls have different values. Yellow - 2, Green - 3, Brown - 4, Blue - 5, Pink - 6 and Black - 7. Hence, they are potted in ascending order of value once the 15 reds have been potted

5:53 there will never be another person on earth that will shoot a 147 last black at such powerful stroke period !

[@SnookerSupreme]

Agree !

[@KhanG-uo3rw]

Cause ronnie didn't wanted to pot the black for it's low price

[@Impranjall]

shot of confidence 💯

[@no_name8363]

I will...but not for the 147 😂😂

[@mohitchoudhary7197]

He wanted to miss it, but Ronnie should realize he can't even miss intentionally 😂😂

[@FruityG]

Pretty sure that last black left the table! 😳 What a masterpiece finish. A bounce trick shot at full speed straight into the last pocket. I take my hat off to you sir. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@Greatsword585]

I haven't played snooker in YEARS but as someone who enjoys watching and playing high skill ceiling games this was incredibly powerful. This mans is insane!

One minute into the game, and Ronnie wants to know what the prize is for a 147 break - how arrogant !! . . . I love it 🥰🥰

Wow I think I finally understand the game after watching this video. Well done, sir.

Never in my life have I ever seen anything like this in snooker! Also, this is the first time I’ve ever even seen or heard of snooker but I have played a boat load of pool in my life and I’m still mighty impressed!

"Apart" and "a part" have two very opposite meanings. If you are apart of those people, that means you do know what's going on.

You could almost hear the "F**k you Barry" as that last black slammed in the back of the pocket. Most audacious 147 ever!

Did he shake hands with King at the end?

If you look back when he first walks up to him he does shake his hand. Right before he pockets the black at the end

[@TheForgetfulNarwhal]

@@tears_of_asariel3198 I'm 90% sure King was looking to shake hands with the referee, he had already gotten up to shake with Ronnie as Ronnie was coming around the table to pot the last black if you look at around 5:48

When he hit the last black is it just me that thinks he partly wanted himself to miss it? 😂

[@Rhythmicons]

it was just a tiny bit risky lol

[@Cyph3rGames]

He did. He wasn't going to get the max break on the fact that the tornie didn't offer a cash reward to someone who got it. The only reason he took the shot was because the ref convinced him to as the people spectating had never seen a 147

[@bluebullit2]

Well, now that I’ve watched this I guess I’ll enjoy a bunch of snooker videos in my recommended

[@MichaelVincentMagic]

Ronnie sees The 147 before he starts potting. In many ways this 147 is magnificent simply because he saw it, he asked the question “what is the prize money for it”? Nothing wrong with that. And then, executed the most perfect ball Potting I have ever seen . The context made it even more astonishing. It comes across as, I can do it, is the prize money worth my while? That was funny. I was laughing as I typed this because it was funny as hell. Brilliant
