I can remember alex higgins playing john virgo in a club game which thankfully was recorded where higgins needed pink and black to win,whilt the shot from baulk close to the green pocket with the cue ball almost in the jaws with pink on the side cushion ,he potted the pink in the black pocket getting position behind the black for a shot in the middle pocket to win, which he potted one handed!! Prior to this he predicted position behind the black and to pot it one handed ,two of the best shots i have ever seen
Imagine the ref calling "Foul and a miss!" at 1:01 far too early (right as the white goes past the red) and Shaun's like "What did you just say??" cause the ref didn't expect the pot on the rebound 😅
I'm a competent left-handed player, but that red to the green pocket that Ronnie potted, and got back for the black, with his left hand puts me to shame 7 days a week.
I’m 50 and grew up a pool player. I haven’t played regularly for years. But knowing that I’ve performed most of these shots on a pool table at different times through my life, makes my head swell 🙃 I enjoyed this vid very much thanks and u got a new sub 👍🏼
Snooker tables are larger than pool tables and the pockets are smaller. If you made these shots in tournaments on a 12 foot table then you should have gone pro
@@rocketsnooker147 yeah %70 of these shots are no damage. We can't just decide if it is a good shot based on what commenter says . Only 4 or 5 of them has extrelemely nerv recking shots. Many of them are continuation shots for higher breaks...
@@rocketsnooker147 no hate but you are fan of Ronnie, it is clear from your name and videos so i am thinking that you didn't put Shaun's shot higher on the list cause it was against your champ. Again no hate but any snooker fan knows that shot is at least top 5 of all time. You even used it for a starter...
@@twiceisallabout1758no not at all 'as the commentator' said he does no damage if he misses it...yes you can say this is unbelievably clever shot but tbh anyone can get this shot done in first three simple attempts
@@Snookerhq naaah not 'anyone can get this shot done in first three simple attempt'. This is crucible and you are playing against the best snooker player in the world. You can't just say anyone can do this, it is not exhibition or practice game and you can also get many of shots done from this clip in three attempts. You are just simplifying one of the best shot in snooker history with saying 'anyone can do this'. There are at least 10 shot in this clips you can easily encounter any snooker game but you can't come across Shaun's shot in a 4-5 year period...
Ah ! Alex Higgins, you see ? He`d knock the wite, sit down down and smoke a cigarrette, drink a pint of Guinness before the object ball was dropped into the pocket.
I can guarantee you that he wasn't planning on it to land there. Yes, he was planning to hit the yellow but there was a certain amount of luck in that shot of where the yellow and the white ultimately ended up.
I wouldn’t have chosen Robertson’s shot to nothing red - there are plenty more he’s played better than that. In fact I’d not put any shot to nothings or shots played either safety as their primary goal in compilations like this, similarly Trump’s showboating when a frame is already won.
lol these AI voiceovers are everywhere, and Kinda annoying, like just a message to the creator. listen back to it and add a comma or full stop and output the AI voice again. seriously not too difficult...
Nice collection. But I think you forgot the best and most difficult. Trump's "ladies and gentlemen, there is only 1 player in the world who can make this red, move the other one, and bring the white back all the way to the black ball, and that player is right now at the table".
Great choice of shots, can't fault anything other than the commentary - can someone at the BBC please tell the likes of Dennis Taylor and Ken Doherty that there are other phrases they can use instead of "What a shot" and "Unbelieveable"! Firstly, "What a shot" is missing an adjective - "What a great shot"? "What a clever shot"? "What a crappy shot"? Secondly, why would someone who has played and watched snooker for 30+ years find any shot "unbelievable"? If a player took a shot and the cue ball cracked open, revealing a baby dinosaur that ran around the table and ate all the other balls, then yes, that would count as "unbelievable", not one that is actually just a very well-played billiards shot. Snooker commentators are by far the most utterly unnecessary people in any broadcast sport, but at least they could try to justify their existence by saying something other than their predictable, incessant, rambling piffle! The main thing is though, I don't let it bother me! 🤐 🙂 😎
Last I heard, Peter Ebdon is still playing a game from 2015.
😂😂😂😂😂
Ronnie still crying about it
🎉😂
Yepp vs Ken Doherty😂
Those are amazing! just missing the no-look shot by Mark Williams!!

Judds cue power is unreal
Peter on the list?😮but yes that shot was amazing

What about Murphy's 'shot of the century'?
Some say it was a fluke tbh
@@rocketsnooker147 Like who?
What a shot🎉
I'm a competent left-handed player, but that red to the green pocket that Ronnie potted, and got back for the black, with his left hand puts me to shame 7 days a week.
En mi opinión, el mejor shot de todos los tiempos es el Masse del gran Jimmy White, grado 10 sobre 10 en dificultad!
Wow so cool watch these hits go up.
Love this. xxx

@@BiscuitGeoff Yeah good point, same principle different size table/balls.
I’m terrible at snooker too lol, highest break 35 😂
Shaun's shot against Ronnie should be higher on the list
As the commentator said if he misses it he does no damage√

Half of these wouldn’t even make the top 100 list for me.
Osm selection
Thanks ✌️
I like the second one, Judd Trump’s
You forgot Shaun Murphy magic shot at Welsh open 2023
Шон волшебник!
Absolutely, that one shouldn't only be on the list but it should be in the top 5 minimum!
Imagine being a professional snooker player called O'Sullivan and not being Ronnie.
And making 147 too
Ah ! Alex Higgins, you see ? He`d knock the wite, sit down down and smoke a cigarrette, drink a pint of Guinness before the object ball was dropped into the pocket.
Mark Williams is a Jedi
if i am not wrong Efen bata pool masters style is coming in snooker and its good and nessesary to improve skills and snooker lovers.....
That Mark Selby Shot was Unreal .. Goddam Son!
I can guarantee you that he wasn't planning on it to land there. Yes, he was planning to hit the yellow but there was a certain amount of luck in that shot of where the yellow and the white ultimately ended up.
We are still talking about the canon shot right?
Q.1 for 10 points...
How many times was the word 'Unbelievable' said in this video?
Answers on a postcard please to the usual address...
Not sure shot 20 was from Crucible, they only have world championships there, and the shortest round is best of 19, not 11.
Ronnie's shot with left hand was more difficult than all
Weird game. They make a shot, and the ref puts the ball back on the table. Who knew? Try that with golf and you'll get a club on your head.
Jimmy's 5 cushion black?
n.18 seems to me the most shocking one
Thought that was John Virgo 5:53
Sounded more like William Shatner 😂
Hendrys brown was in the 25th frame and he was 9-14 down. White still needed 4 more frames.
Oh sorry my bad.
Was there a drawn frame? 9+14 = 23 so how could they be on 25th frame?
Alex has a better shot than that. Where he rides the footrail with the final black.
Ebdon, beyond bland, but a world champion none the less 👏
Ronnie left hand shot when middle of a 147 is by far greatest shot of all time by a distance no arguments ronnie the GOAT
Disagree. Not going to argue with you tho
@@mattbeevers1132name 1 shot better in snooker when it comes to pressure specially for a 147 behave eh 🤣
the black to far right corner in do or die match ???
@@user-lz7tk5ec1w
No Efren Reyes?
No, pool is for kids, this is snooker, for men

Peter ebdon is still aiming on that black
Some of those shots really were "unbelievable". It's a lot harder than it looks playing on a table that size. At least that's what I find!
0:25 that is not a banana shot
They're alright.
lol these AI voiceovers are everywhere, and Kinda annoying, like just a message to the creator. listen back to it and add a comma or full stop and output the AI voice again. seriously not too difficult...
What about 5 cushion escape from Ronnie against Trump
I s
disagree but pretty great top 20.
1. Selbys first shot wasn't at the crucible
2. Sean o Sullivans did not make that black for a 147
Prove it.
@@rocketsnooker147 no crucible match is best of 11. And if O Sullivans black was for a 147 there would be no other balls left on the table
thatshot at 4:30 wasnt a double it was a bank shot. a double is a bank shot that hits two rails then goes into the pocket.
Not in snooker or UK pool it’s not.
How to prove you're not from the UK 😂
AI voice over. Sounds weird. It says “Mass shot” meaning Masse shot. Can’t you be bothered to have someone voice this?
Num 8 in this list is Sullivan son?
No bro😅
Listen
Top 20 "in history."
When again did snooker history begin?
The order is not to my taste but good video nonetheless
Every short is recreate able accept 2nd short by Trump
Nice collection. But I think you forgot the best and most difficult. Trump's "ladies and gentlemen, there is only 1 player in the world who can make this red, move the other one, and bring the white back all the way to the black ball, and that player is right now at the table".
Oh yeah should be there...
John Higgins is the GOAT.
Ebdons still didnt pot the yellow after he potted the pink lol he eats sleeps and drinks snooker can't get him away from the table ha ha
Why can't Ronnie celebrate a good shot... (Also Ronnie Fans hating Carter for the same thing)
Its not important...the difference i noticed is Ali actually laughs on the situation when a player plays a good shot most of the times...
Nope - not the top 20. You are missing some classics.
Ebdon on # 2? Bad joke
Please please stop with the ridiculous voiceovers
Why is Andrew Tate narrating
Bata does it better!!
I dont see Asian players on the list
Imagine putting that trash on top 3

but you're the one calling
You sound like you need some excitement in your life. That's not a criticism.
What a comment!
@@cjstato Unbelievable! ;)
Mark Williams shot was not pre planned.. it was a lucky safety shot....an all or nothing shot
Bit controversial...but the commentators admitted he played that
How to prove you know fxck all ....
