    For one off brilliant shots, 2 honourable mentions should come from the 2019 world final - both in unsuccessful 147 attempts... The double on the last red from John Higgins plus the red from Judd Trump into the green pocket cannoning the red off the side cushion and getting position on the black.

    • @EnglishPoolandSnooker
      @EnglishPoolandSnooker  4 роки тому +6

      Agreed they were great shots but not so special as they didn’t achieve the 147. There was a similar doubled last red yesterday by David Gilbert. He got 15 reds, 15 blacks and missed a tough yellow.

    Alex Higgins vs Doug Mountjoy WSC 1982, cue ball against the brown, plays the blue into the middle with a ton of left hand side on the cue ball, off the baulk cushion to move the safe pink off the side cushion over the middle pocket, greatest shot I've ever seen. And the green to win the match in the deciding frame at 12-12 is a very close second. That was Alex's year, a very special player.

If your going to lose why not use the opportunity to be adventurous and try more side and combine it with top and bottom on the ball and see how the white reacts, then in not too many frames you will know how its going to react , then your on the next ball with ease and a contender (get a half decent cue mind it makes all the difference). Good luck and have fun, the fun bit is the most important part of the game :).

      It's a famous shot/clearance, probably a bit over-rated going by today's standards. Also, the cloths were slower then, so it was more impressive at the time. I did a video called battle of the blues, where Neil Robertson and Judd Trump both play a very similar shot on the blue and they were barely mentioned.
