That’s the great mystery of this channel. As well as the mystery of what’s in the boxes. But if you ask the right people I’m sure you will find out. About who I am, no one knows what's in the boxes
Love your videos. One question..I notice your cueing elbow is bent in to your body. I tried this and it felt uncomfortable but It really improved my potting. Can you elaborate on why this improves my game SO much? Thanks
I try to push my elbow out as far as possible on the shot. This just seems to be as wide as I can get it at the moment. It probably helps you because it works with your wrist action
@@Breakfromlife Thanks for the reply. I think youre right..I do feel my wrist locks better like this. Maybe thats the reason it helps me. And im thinking maybe it helps align my cue to the shot aswell. I notice lots of top players have this bent cueing elbow aswell..theres definately something in it.
Hey I was wondering if you have any advice. I wear bifocal glasses, so when I put my chin down on the cue I can’t see the balls properly as I am sometimes looking over them! What’s the best way around this as I normally end up playing the shot with my head lifted op a bit
For whatever it's worth, I got a set of glasses geared at my mid range and distant prescription numbers. Not perfect as my view of my cue tip at the cue ball is a bit blurry, but I see the rest of the table much better.
It sometimes a way I stop myself playing a shot too quickly. You can find you get down on the shot and almost just hit it before you know what’s happened
A lot of players find themselves doing this naturally - it is not deliberate and has normally has no particular purpose. Try this: Put your hand on a table with a classic snooker bridge, fingers stretched and finger tips pressing into the surface. Now using your other hand try lifting each finger in turn from the surface. You should find that with each finger - apart from the middle finger - there is a tension and the finger snaps back onto the surface when you let it go. But the middle finger is different; it is just loose. In some players this looseness turns into a sort of twitch.
Thanks for that tip teacher. My i know what is your name please??? I would like to know it because I like to call my teachers by name, thanks bye bye. 🔝😃👍👋👋

I think the advice is flawed and he misses out some very important shots and things to learn .....1 Stun shot by cueing up and down centre ball to control cue ball line - the single most important shot to learn in snooker and the one most learners dont understand properly - They roll it in rather than strike thro the white because they want to make sure of a pot - its a very bad habit for many... 2...learning how to leave a angle (line of shot) leaving angle for next shot (he mentions but briefly) - making cannons or giving yourself options on more than 1 ball. 3 Learning how to use side - for various reasons to re-gain position if you run out of position.especially. Special mentions screw shot /soft/deep/reverse side,check - drag shot - playing with top spin, cueing off a cushion. figure of 8 safety, doubles effects of power how to narrow the angle etc etc., There are many more things but Im very supprised he missed a few of these out,
I will make a video about cannons at some point though I may have to combine it with a video about plants. Also the next video is going to be related to cannons
Once I did a stun shot even though it wasn't a straight shot. You'd think the cue ball would just deflect to the side, but no, it's stopped dead on its track, right where the object ball was. I wonder if side spin had anything to do with it. I just don't know.

Not all of us have out parents table to practice on all day I know you didn't work to pay for the table and the room it's in.
you are telling what to do but not explaining how to do. I suggest you to focus more on explaining HOW to play a particular shot in all your videos
best video so far. production is getting really good!
I’m currently upgrade my background make take a while but will definitely add som
Cheers fella. Another great video.
Many thanks. Fantastic help
Is it true that you can’t play the ‘dump’ shot if the white and object ball are in line with the pocket?
Consider investing money in some better lighting. Would make the quality of the video’s even better. Keep it up !
I think I got more lighting fairly soon after this video

Another excellent vid, I'll be popping into the snooker room today and practice a bit. I've just noticed that you have a really nice table.
That’s great hope the practice went well and my table has been look good since I had it re-clothed ua-cam.com/video/nm-CXFkReu4/v-deo.html

Awesome helpful ..
Howvto correct straight aim pot?
Quality as usual mate. Many thanks.

French sous titres no ?
It’s my blacks and balls sitting below the black spot that kills my game

It’s my ability to hit the ball straight that kills my game
2:30 foul lol
If use STAR table maybe more easy. How about you try on WIRAKA M-1 table.
Unfortunately I don’t think it’s likely I’ll be able to get one of those any time soon
@6:21 depends, if your playing it straight yes, if you are playing the double no.
Quality my friend. Thanks for your efforts
Great stuff! Really helpful tips in there, definitely one of your best. Keep these quality vids coming!
anyone notice cue ball at 5:52?????
It was me throwing it and didn’t cut it very well. But I don’t think anyone else did surprisingly
5:51 you have ghost playing with your cue ball
It’s a split screen, didn’t do it very well by the looks of it as the white disappears for a bit
Très bonne vidéo, grosse qualité, bonne pédagogie !

I am having problems with the power top spin shot. Around the table off the blue
Whats in they boxes son?
Weirdly books about Cornwall I was storing them for someone who was selling them quite well but unfortunately he died
i am just confuse on one thing , my back hand's elbow doesnt come exactly in line of head
Ideally it would but mine doesn’t either. Everyone is slightly different so things won’t always be that straightforward
you should take part in snooker championship worldwide playing against Judd Ronnie
Sadly I struggle to beat Ronnie’s numpties
Great video, will you also please make a tutorial on how to get the effect on the white as you did in 5:51 when it hit the cushion?
Well for that you need to make the p in p image too big. Then not notice until it’s too late to change it.
What's the difference between playing on a table with or without a heater?
Answering your questions in a bonus video out on this channel Tuesday
Great video
Im unable to recognise the aim point on the ball for thin cut
Try using the side of the CueBall to line shots up when it gets thin
Really,i want to see you vs ronnie o' sulivan
Someone on my Snooker team actually beat him in an exhibition several years ago
Make a video on canons
ua-cam.com/video/uEFyrt5GnOU/v-deo.html This channel is great
It is a great channel. I’m just confused how you managed to post a link in the comments on my video. Normally they get automatically sent to spam
I will make a video about cannons at some point though I may have to combine it with a video about plants. Also the next video is going to be related to cannons
@@Breakfromlife Copy/paste as normal
Got any 147's ?
Not yet still trying
@0:07 NICE SHOT! How many tries?
I think that was 3
You have to almost know the entire game inside and out?
How to strike the cueball for the shot @0:05?
i found line of aim varied hugely from a club table to a star table due to the extra rubber on the cushions and completely different cut
decent vid ruined by too many ads..4-5 is taking the piss for the content.. don't let greed ruin why you started out dude
This is invaluable.
Once I did a stun shot even though it wasn't a straight shot. You'd think the cue ball would just deflect to the side, but no, it's stopped dead on its track, right where the object ball was. I wonder if side spin had anything to do with it. I just don't know.
Possibly this might explain it ua-cam.com/video/bNtgg8AsVWY/v-deo.html
