      Me. The real shot was nothing like the 'recreated' one - the recreated one was at an angle with the black further from the pocket - the real one was dead straight (still not in any way easy though, with the danger of an in off and playing across the nap) - you can see Stephen twitch it, just like Mark said on cue tip that he did!

      Jon Wilson the 85 final, all square after 34 frames, and went down as one of the very few black ball finals, won in the final frame, on the final black.
      Of course he's going to make a comparison to this match, which was all square after 18 frames, and all down to the final black.
      I don't think it was 2 out of order him referencing a similar situation that he was involved with in 85, with similar tension in the crowd, and with both his and Steve's arm going to jelly with nerves.
      But I suppose, if you really want to be nitpicky, he's dead proud of winning the world title against Steve Davis. If I had taken a world title off Steve Davis I'd be talking about it for ever more as well.

We won't have DT forever, nor SD. So, let's hear their comparisons and stories galore! I was an SD fan. Him vs Hurricane Higgins, then Jimmy White, then the death to all 1980's players in the form of Stephen Hendry - who was the Mike Tyson of his day. Good old days.

    • @EsotericStarWarsRubbish
      @EsotericStarWarsRubbish Před 6 lety

      Daniel Rajaiah nothing different, it’ll be a 7 point foul to the opponent and then they’ll get to respot the white in the D.
      They’ll still need to pot the black to win, however if the person who fouled pots the black then it’ll be a respotted black as they’ll have equal points after potting it.

    • @joegraham1136
      @joegraham1136 Před 6 lety

      Esoteric Star Wars Rubbish - Actually the points for the final black (or a respotted black as here) can only be awarded once. So if a player goes in-off with or without potting the final black (or respotted black) they would lose the frame (and match in this case). For the same reasons it is impossible to play for snookers on the black, because even if you managed to force the opponent to foul, that would be the end of the frame - no option to pot the black afterwards (or play for more snookers). This means that if either player is leading by more than 7 points after the pink is fairly potted, the frame is unequivocally over and the other player is not allowed to return to the table. The player who successfully potted the pink is allowed one attempt to pot the black though, which they usually do if they are on for a break of 50 or more.

    • @EsotericStarWarsRubbish
      @EsotericStarWarsRubbish Před 6 lety

      Joe Graham oh sorry mate I had no idea, there’s me thinking I know my snooker. Thanks for correcting me.
      Apologies for my confusion OP.

    • @chinadan86
      @chinadan86 Před 6 lety

      Just got this from Wikipedia
      *There are three less common ways to end a frame:
      A foul on the black, when the black is the only ball left. It is sometimes wrongly assumed that play continues after a foul on the black if there are fewer than seven points between the scores. This is not the case: the player who is in the lead following the assessment of a penalty after a foul when only the black remains is the winner.*
      So correct me if wrong, if I have 50 points and opponent has 57 points with only the black to play, and my opponent goes in-off. We would carry on like a respotted black situation except that the black ball is not respotted right, it is played from its last position?

    • @joegraham1136
      @joegraham1136 Před 6 lety +1

      Daniel Rajaiah Good question. Actually that would be a respotted black. When your opponent fouled, you would be given the points for the black and the frame would ordinarily be over, but since that would level the scores, a respotted black would be necessary.

      This shot is really underrated. It wasn't THAT easy. The cue ball was close to the cushion and it was a straight shot, without any cuts. To avoid the cue ball falling into the middle pocket right after the black Hendry needed to add spin, which was hard to do due to the cue ball being near the right cushion. So it wasn't a joke, for sure not at such a nervous moment.

    Hendry hated losing, that's why he retired relatively young.

      he also has a condition called "yips" which affected his vision and depth perception. it basically degrades your senses faster than usual

      He actually explained it was due to not following through on his shots like he previously had, he was stopping short and then overtime when it kept happening it became a psychological thing and soon avoided specific shots through fear of it happening again to the point he lost his game.@@TanayLuthra

      @@userjim83 mate, I simply said what it seems like to me. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe not so much (looking at the origins of F1, Polo etc) and perhaps Snooker isn't as popular as it was in the UK, but I mean all over the world it has increased in popularity and accesibility
