    I am confused about this championship. Everywhere on the internet it says that this 1992 event was the first trick shot world championship. But Terry Griffiths says he is the defending champion ... how is this possible ? Does anybody know the answer ??

    Interesting to see Alain Robidoux come across as an entertaining and pleasant natured guy. Funny because he's mostly remembered as the guy who refused to concede with 15 snookers required when he got all butt-hurt about Ronnie O'Sullivan playing a few shots left-handed.

    @maffioso91 Před 11 lety +1

    Not sure if sarcasm or really asking, but so I'll explain it anyway.
    He shot the most left ball on left making it spin clockwise. Hence it was touching the cushion and the middle ball, two effects occurred. Because it touched the cushion, the clockwise spin made it go towards the pot. And because it was touching the middle ball, it made that one spin too and a chain reaction started. Because the middle ball was also touching the cushion and the most right ball, it triggered the same effect.

  • @HolographicOne
    @HolographicOne Před 12 lety +2

    If you watched Davis' segment, he kind of gave it away- I'm surprised no one has mentioned it. When Davis rolled the coin down the table it kept rolling a certain direction, therefore insinuating that the table is tilted, or shimmed to one side to keep the coin hitting the cushion if it starts to fall. If you watch the coin shot again, it doesn't roll straight, it keeps hitting the cushion and standing back up.

  • @urfanorependra
    @urfanorependra  Před 11 lety +1

    the table is much larger (width is similar like pool length !), on the other hand the balls are much smaller. And the shape of the cuhions around the pockets is wicked ! in pool you can use the cushions to get the ball in. it's opposite in snooker (due to pocket shape). if you touch the cushions the ball will be deflected away from the pocket instead of into it.
    Give snooker a try, then come back and tell us of your experience ;o)

    You do not realize how much skill is involved in snooker.
    1-It's not an easy sport do you now how hard it is t consistently cue the cue perfectly
    2-It takes a lot of skill mentally to concentrate and play well for 18 odd frames, I play snooker and I only play 3 frames and Im dead by the end of it.
    3-Have you ever heard "Snooker is like a game of chess" well it is, Its requires tactful thinking.
    So to be honest I'd say Snooker is a very skillful game. Don't you.
    So go shove your Barcelona.

    I will explain, pool is for little girls, and frustrated snooker players. .. Snooker is the game for the brave, its the game that the 'big fish in little ponds pool players' avoid. No pool player could ever play snooker even at its lowest levels. And 'no' efton ryes , whatever his name is has ever seen a snooker table, he couldn't reach it to play a shot.

    Take my word for it. Its much much harder. A snooker table is almost twice the size of a pool table. Try to play these shots on a pool table and then try to find a snooker table where you live and do the same shots. You will see the differens.
