7:38 THE Player gets 3 shots to touch a red? I'm unfamiliar with what is happening in this game at that point.

[@J5X7]

@@shack8110 each time he fouls his opponent is awarded 4 points. It's up to the ref if it's a 'miss' (ie, player could do better based on ability or intentionally played for damage limitation by leaving the cueball safe). On his third attempt ref decided his shot was a fair attempt and didn't call a 'miss'.

[@biggee2537]

The snooker mark Selby was in after ricky waldens shot. The ref was spot on not to call a miss. Even though the distance the the red, was a way off. Selby did so well to get that close from that snooker. Top refereeing.

[@martintemelkov]

[@LounaticE92]

So snooker is about two people giving each other hard time?...

[@mertokan7092]

Pretty much.

[@Camberwell86]

It's first and foremost about potting balls and scoring points. This is very much the safety side of play. The table is so huge that if you're not 100% sure you can pot it it's safer to give the other guy a hard time. Because if you miss and leave it on, the guys are so good they will just clear every ball on the table. Yeah if you don't know snooker this is a toughie for your first video. I hope you get into snooker and return to this video one day you'll appreciate it more :)

[@udtojanpestillos2094]

08:00 i would love to see the reaction of selby if the ref would call it a miss :D

[@tomoakhill8825]

I love Paul Caulley, the ref. He made the *right* call at 7:45 & again at 26:45. This is the best. I would love to see a compilation of "fouls" without the "miss". They are so incredibly difficult.

[@tomekczajka]

I don't see the value of not calling the "miss". I would prefer that the "miss" would be automatic for every foul. I only see disadvantages of the no-miss fouls: it introduces an arbitrary decision into the game, making the referee an active participant of the frame (there is no precise rule); and it penalizes the snooker-maker for setting up an exceptionally hard snooker! it should be rewarded, not penalized.

[@steviemacmuttley]

@@tomekczajka So in the event that a player who tries so many times to get out of a hard snooker, you would insist the ref calls a "miss" every time even if the cue ball misses a ball by 1mm? That could mean that a player can loose a frame by lots of "misses" which is unfair...god I would hate to have you as a referee!!!

[@tomekczajka]

@@steviemacmuttley No you misunderstood. I don't think it should be up to the referee to make the call at all. I think it would be better for the game if the rules were changed that way, but I don't think referees should just individually decide to do that with the rules as they are today.

[@LilJulezz]

@@steviemacmuttleyyeah its called snooker for a reason

[@steviemacmuttley]

snooker yes but the "miss" rule is very harsh when players do try to hit a ball but at times cannot find the angle - why not have a max number of times a "miss" can be called - that way the player who made the snooker cannot automatically win a frame simply by being awarded lots and lots of "misses"...but there again you would welcome that!!@@LilJulezz

[@VINNIEJONES10]

20:30 surprised he didn’t call it a miss. I thought Dunn could have played off two cushions around the black

[@steviemacmuttley]

Perhaps you could try that shot yourself since you seem to know more than the referee and the players?

[@VINNIEJONES10]

@@steviemacmuttley I bet you’re fun at parties. Miserable prick

[@oskarskalski2982]

@@steviemacmuttley Many other players and pundits called it the hardest snooker to escape. But I was also a bit surprised that ref didn't call a miss on that one because it didn't seem so hard to escape. The one from Murphy vs Ding was waaaay harder or the one that Holt had. Mike had plenty of space between the cushion and brown for cue ball. However I'm not 100% sure so I'll probably try this one on my snooker table tomorrow.

[@marklawrence3642]

[@shawnhapney8784]

I grew up around a pool table so I'm good at it when I'm well practiced. Not Master level but pretty good. I'm good at most pub/ bar games. But Snooker I haven't looked into much before and im already 43! I watched the snooker rules video. I'm watching a few of these competitions. I'm really enjoying it! Snooker is the next logical step from regular pool. Even that much more precision oriented. More gentle. Of course just a massive table. I want to go out and try my luck at it!

[@stewartmcjinnon6034]

When you have zero chance of hitting a colour, call yellow, green, or brown.

[@alex290p3]

14:55 great sportsman

[@bojanlukic2366]

What exactly happened there?

[@MonkeyBscts]

Bojan Lukic I’m not sure but if I had to guess I’d say it has something to do with calling the colour he’s trying to hit? He clearly has no chance of hitting any of them but I’ve no idea what the rules are for fouls in a situation like that and if there was a chance of the foul costing him 7 points instead of 4.

[@dailynotinteresting4325]

@@bojanlukic2366 It's an extremely unusual situation where he's pocketed a red, then gone into the cluster and had the balls converge in such a way that it's geometrically impossible for him to make a legal shot. The ref (who doesn't speak English) explains to Fu that Jones can basically make any shot he wants and it will be called a foul, but not a miss - since there's no way to hit a colour from that position. Fu then explains this to Jones who goes on to make a push-out shot.

[@kavasr]

@@dailynotinteresting4325 well yes but not exactly. According to the rules in such a situation where none of the cushions can be hit making it an "impossible" shot, you have to make a shot towards the next legal and possible ball which is in this case the green because the yellow is snookered by the pink ball. That's why Jones aimed on the green ball and made a dummy shot towards it. The referee pointed this out and made it clear. Very professional call from the ref he is aware of the least used rules.

[@kenunderwood8621]

In a sense red IS the 1st color!

[@andrewboxall2945]

if you get trapped in the reds after potting, it can't be called a miss (e.g retake the shot) so the two occasions it happened were not that big of a deal - on the second occasion the player did not nominate a colour to hit which is the only reason it was re-taken, so that was on the player.

[@kasperjoonatan6014]

11:23 Judd please bring that hair back!!

[@waqarghulam3548]

Fu was generous, that was his frame on the self snooker, the referee should have given the frame to Fu

[@deborahmoore6214]

That self imposed snooker was unfortunate, but the rule is clear. If you cannot play a legal shot, You play towards your nominated ball with sufficient force that you would hit it if the snookering ball/s were not there. A foul is given, but it is not a miss. It’s surprising how many players, even pros don’t know the rule book

[@alfafanet]

In the Selby snooker at 8:00, why didn't the referee call a miss, and why was that praised? I'm not terribly familiar with the finer details of the game.

[@Conography]

Bump

[@kotkomonium]

Because the player did the best he could to hit the red. With the first two tries he was going for the best possible outcome for himself (trying to touch one of the reds with minimum force), so the referee called a miss, but with the third attempt Selby hit the white hard enough for the referee to assume that it was an honest try to just hit the red without any further calculations.

[@Bill_Stranix]

@12:08 What is the official rule on that? If it is impossible to hit a colour? Does the ref just use discretion and not call a miss?

[@predictivetextisforaunts]

dageezerboi If it is impossible and both players agree there isn’t a legal shot that can be played, then the player snookered can play a deliberate foul and the ref will not call a miss.

[@johndangerfield2571]

was that the correct implementation of the rules with that shot in the marco fu games with the white stuck in the reds. i would have thought that is a case for a re-rack because it's impossible to make a legal shot.

[@johnmehaffey9953]

The thing to remember that in a self snooker it was your poor positional shot that put the white there, different if it was a fluky snooker then the ref can use discretion but if you're poor shot put it there then no mercy either forfeit or watch the points pile up and after a while come to an arrangement with the other player

"According to the rules, a Miss is in play when the cue-ball fails to first contact a ball on and the referee considers that the striker has not made a good enough attempt to hit a ball on based on his ability to play the game." - In this case, the referee judged that Selby although miss hitting the ball, he already made a goog enough attempt.
