      @starhawkflyingbright6905 Yeah, he was Pool champion well after he started his Snooker career. If anything, Snooker automatically makes you a good Pool player. Unfortunately, it doesn't work the other way around. 😉

      The reason pro snooker players dont usually win at pool is because theyre different games and the top pro pool players have some nuance that gives them the edge. But they still can compete with the pro pool players. Put a pro pool player against even a good amateur in snooker and they will not even compete. So there is the answer... Yes snooker is harder, but the best pro pool players are better at pool than the best pro snooker players.

      2006 uk pool final : selby vs appleton. One went and became 4 times snooker world champ, the other, multiple US pool world champion.
      Uk pool players are not "worse" than snooker players or pool players. Just a different sports. More about touch, tight positioning and finding solutions.

    Why do they sometimes alternate (in the last game/frame), and sometimes Mark plays all the shots?

    • @toramenor
      @toramenor Před rokem +2

      That's how the rules are for every match. This is the compilation of just Mark's frames from all the matches + the final frame when they won, but in any match there will be frames where just Mark plays, then just Gareth, then alternate. The same for the other pair as well

      Ah yes, the internet. Everyone has to desperately try to start arguments and be weird about literally anything, behaving totally differently to how they do in real life to people's faces. This is why so-called "AI" like this ChatGPT nonsense is becoming aggressive, argumentative, gaslighting, lying and plain weird, because this is where it's learning all it's behaviour from.

      @@chyanfrancisco4818 The thing about Selby is that he was a pro pool player before he pursued snooker as a career, so he has a better grasp of fundamentals and strategies than someone like Judd Trump (no offense to Trump, but after seeing Jayson Shaw crush him like that proves to me that if you play snooker and think pool is easy, then you already play pool.)
