Love a bit of snooker, whose favourite?

Judd Trump slight favourite due to his form this season and during the past year. Ronnie has won the UK the last 2 years and still playing well. So more than likely between these two but wouldn't rule out Neil Robertson and Mark Selby!

Cheers Love it in the winter months, sit at home, glass of red watching the snooker on a sunday

I pretty much try and watch all the tournaments as much as possible lol.

Any good yourself?

Not really to be honest I enjoy playing it every other week as a hobby, my highest break is only 30 and that was like 5 years ago. What about yourself?

I got into it a few years ago as a by product of playing pool. Probably haven't played 100 frames in my life, but went through a solid strage of playing every or every other friday for a while. probably highest break of 24 or so.

Snooker is a tricky game to be fair, wish I could get better and make at least 50+ breaks.

It is so tricky. Not sure what it is but I'm very good at angles but don't know if i'm miscuing because its so 50/50 on if they go in even when I think I have the right angle

I'm terrible at playing screw back shots. I miss so many pots trying to do this, occasionally I get it right but not very often lol. Sometimes if I'm on a black I'll just make sure of the pot and do nothing with the cue- ball lol.

Move the cue down just before you make contact. Build a rhythm and work on your timing and you’ll soon master it

I shall give that a go, thank you

He won a ranking event in China few years ago but struggled last year or so, I think he's down to like 30 odd in the rankings now

6-0 win for Ronnie. Just tuned on now and it's currently 5-5 between Kyren Wilson and Marco Fu

Good 6-1 win for Judd

Mark Williams has avoided the whitewash gets it back to 1-4, could have been 5-0, could that be the turning point?

Bye bye Judd! 👋👋👋👋

Massive shame for Judd I'm at work so didn't watch the game, think he must have taken Nigel Bond lightly. Judd doesn't seem to play well in York, ever since he got to the final in 2014 he's not had a good run, never mind though he has to give other players a chance!
