TOP 50 Shots IN History - Part2

[@wilkywilky7814]

Sean Murphy’s first shot how he managed to get the correct amount of side from the pocket jaws and the top cushion is more difficult than it looks, rattling the jaws can put side on the ball already, and he compensated for that. for me that’s the most impressive shot.

[@JongleurJ10]

That last clip, O'Sullivan playing exhibition when the frame is not even settled! I really like the rebelliousness about that.

[@OJB42]

In some of those shots just the ability to visualise that the shot existed was as impressive as the execution!

[@MaxIQ77]

Murphy vs. Pang is so far ahead of all these other shots. Truly elite play by Murphy.

[@gjb79ful]

Why was the ref blurred out?

[@OutcastSpartan]

@@gjb79ful No idea why they blurred Malgorzata Kanieska out. Bit silly if you ask me.

[@Mee10792]

I always find the amazing shots are the ones where the player is not miles out in front on the scoring, so the pressure is on

[@MystLgnd]

Snooker is so special, it has such elegance ❤

[@dilksjoel]

Who was the player near the end? Chubby guy, queue action reminded me of a high end motor car.

[@weaselkenievil]

This compilation is unbelievable! Shot after shot is jaw dropping, amazing collection of legends at the top of their game mate, nice one.

[@Snookerhq]

Many thanks❤

[@alessandromerelli7221]

That shot of Davis vs Robertson is my favourite ever defence/snooker reaching shot. How much fantasy one need to think to pull out something like that? Not even talking about how difficult the shot was and how he landed perfectly behind the brown. All of that at the age of 52. What a fucking legend.

[@weaselkenievil]

Haha ace comment mate, hell of a shot

[@jaysmith2858]

Davis is the best snooker tactician of all time. I think he might of won even more if he had the 'split the pack as early as possible' approach.

[@DanielConstantinoS]

I have no idea what is happening but it looks awesome! 😂

[@Jack_Rakan]

In snooker, when a game starts there are 15 red balls worth 1 point, and one ball each of the other colors with yellow worth 2 points, green 3 points, brown 4 points, blue 5 points, pink 6 points and black 7 points, and the white ball which is the only ball the players are allowed to touch with the cue (the stick). When a player starts their turn at the table they MUST make sure that after they hit the white ball with the cue, the first ball it makes contact with is a red ball if there is one available. If they hit a red ball and pocket it, then they must now make sure to hit one of the other colored balls first, and it is considered a foul if they hit another red first at this time (For example at 6:04 when Williams does that shot for the yellow ball when he is surrounded by tons of reds). If they pocket a colored ball, then that player adds their value to their score, get to continue playing at the table, and the colored ball gets put back on the table, while red balls once pocketed stay out of the game. If the turn player does not pocket a ball, or pockets the wrong kind of ball (Eg. pocketing a colored when they must hit a red, a red when they must hit a colored, or the white ball at any time) then their turn ends and the other player gets their turn. After all the red balls have been pocketed, then the colored balls must then be pocketed in order of their worth (so yellow, then green, then brown, then blue, then pink and finally black), and at this stage they do not get reset unless they were pocketed out of order, which is a foul (To explain why 6:45 is NOT a foul, even though Ding pocketed the black with no reds on the table, you must still pocket a colored ball after pocketing the last red, and that ball gets reset, before you have to pocket the colored ones in order). This is the reason there are varying amounts of balls on the table. Sometimes, the best play is not to pocket a ball, but to instead put the opponent in a position where it is almost impossible to not foul. A good example is at 3:50 when Davis puts his opponent in a 'Snooker'. This means that there are NO direct paths between the white ball and the red balls.

[@Mr1nv1s1ble]

Ronnie really wanted Ding to get that 147. I remember watching it live and when he got a fluke on that yellow, we all thought it was meant to be.. sadly, it wasnt 😢

[@cyruslau4787]

5:00 6:33

[@ppdan]

Tbh, this was one of the best attempts for a 147 I have seen. After that spectacular black I didn't expect those misses on the yellow (that he fluked) and the miss on the green ... that black was by far more difficult than those.

[@phillydavison]

WTF was Robertson doing with that hair 😂 Ronnie at the end going super saiyan lol

[@johnmc3862]

Loved that clown haircut. 😂

[@WishBone69]

As an American just getting into billiards I thought snooker was some English nonsense. Nah, these guys are next level

[@everydaymaths360]

That opening shot from the magician is super dope

[@JaccovanWingerden]

This is so satisfying to watch… Snooker finds a balance between skill & art. And a lot of skill is required… Great to have a sport like this to watch. Matches spread over days and still ending up in a tight decision. Every time I pick up my cue and play like crap, I appreciate these players more.

[@wandelust]

Brilliant compilation. All fantastic shots. Thanks for posting 👍

[@Snookerhq]

Many thanks!

[@michaelmattingley5117]

That shot by Murphy off the cushion was awesome

[@channelnumber73]

Looks like the most difficult shot of them all to me, and there is no slowmotion or rerun like on the other shots, strange 😊, I know they use the clip in the beginning of the video but still... What a shot🎉

[@andymcneil7085]

Takes genius to spot some of those shots and then another level to pull it off.

[@matthewbaker2573]

nice to know i've managed to pull off a few of these types of shots myself while playing 99% pure fluke and could never do it again but i did it lol

[@terryhayward7905]

Brilliant playing, but the most impressive thing for me is the difference between early TV cameras, and what we have today. The last frame I could hardly make out the balls :)

[@ollivgv]

not so much about cameras but mostly about video storage (and tv air) format

[@KindredBrujah]

Back in the day we had to watch these on a black and white TV. Now _that_ was difficult.

[@terryhayward7905]

@@KindredBrujah I remember a commentator saying, " he is playing the red ball which is next to the green " when watching in black and white, It made sense if you understood the game, but not a lot of use to people new to snooker.

What a shot it is by refrees is epic😂

[@daveslocum5625]

im a pool player who' never had the chance to play snooker bc i cant find a table anywhere but i love watching it. was just wondering what makes some shots so difficult? for example selbys shot at the 1:05 mark, is it just the distance, or is it bc the pockets or angle is much tighter in snooker? appreciate anyone who could clear it up

[@razvanno]

You will never understand how difficult snooker is (compared to pool) until you try to play it !

[@ryan1111111555555555]

it's both of the reasons you said, snooker table pockets are unforgiving, and the angle was tight, and it was from a long way, and it was also the speed in which he played it, most players would've rolled it in to give it the best chance of wiggling in

[@captmcneil]

Why is the referee blurred? Seen that a couple of times now, either with audience or refs.

As someone that was born on a billiard table, I am utterly confused as to why some of these bog standard shots are amazing? I saw one single shot that was impressive. Many of these shots used pocket bumpers to even drop the ball. Are we talking about rule shots or technical skill shots?

Yeah…except it’s on a table twice the size and a VERY small fraction of bar players could play on this size of a table to begin with…

[@LieseFury]

over here in cheeseburgerland, i have no idea what the rules of this game are and i've been unable to guess by watching clips, but it's entertaining!

[@arturscircenis2820]

You have to pot red - color - red - color, so you have to alternate. Reds are not coming back, colors come back while there is at least one red still on the table. Each ball has it's own points for pocketting it. One who gets more points wins the frame. That's the short summary, basically.

[@michaelsong5555]

2:16 Why was the bounce necessary? I feel like a straight shot would have done the job (perhaps with back/side spin for repositioning).

[@michaellavery4899]

Having watched this and Stephen Hendry's 'Cue Tips' where he occasionally plays top pool players and wins regularly, I don't think there is any argument that snooker players are the most talented. Sure, pool players see the 'patterns' that show them how to clear up from the break but a good snooker player could easily learn this skill. Pro snooker players have ventured over to the other side, some playing at the highest level. But if the skills of both games were so easily interchangeable, why don't we see pool players competing for the big money offered by most pro snooker tournaments?
