  • I used to admire John SO much. I thought he was the only player to beat Ronnie O'Sullivan at his best, and he did. But after that "thing", I can't look at him the same. Now, I don't know if John was really guilty or not, but it ruins his macthes for me.

    You are such an incredible match player. You didn't have to cheat....

    Snooker players should earn as much as tennis/golf players. The skill is equal. Maybe this is a reason, I don't know.

  • how is this lucky ?

  • @martindrummie the black @ 6:56

  • This 147 shouldnt count... it was a bad shot that got rewarded. A Miss.

  • the commentator wins.. lol...

  • who is better higgins or o sullivan

  • @legoyugioh Sullivan is the most talented, Higgins is the most professional.

  • @legoyugioh higgins is a lot more consistent, but in terms of flair, natural talen and entertainment value its ronnie every time

  • @benman136 O'Sullivan at his best is the best of all.

  • @legoyugioh Higgins ofc

  • The fluke to get 96 points is great!

  • out class break buddy......

  • thumbs up if you are watching this in 2011

  • @CELEBFOOL when the fuck else would we be watching it?

  • WiZard *0*

  • John Higgins is world champion. He is also Welsh Open Champion. He is also the worlds number 2 player, he beat Judd Trump who was at his best whilst playing his B game. He is the best player of the 21st century. This is something that will probably cause people to say what about O'Sullivan? What about Hunter? Higgins is the best. 4 World Titles. 1 UK Title. 2 Grand Prix Titles. 2 Masters. O'Sullivan at his best is probably better than Higgins, but Higgins is consistent, therefore I think, better

  • @ArsenalTomas Higgins is a cheating cunt. He was sooo lucky against O'Sullivan at this years world championships as well. O'Sullivan is the best player ever. Both handed, more centuries, more 147's and he doesn't put in half the practice that everybody else does. Higgins is a dirty cheating rat that match fixes. PROVEN.

  • @CannyFarmKopite Yeah you are 100% right the best prove that Ronnie O''sullivan is the best and better than john higgins and stephen hendry is that Ronnie per total won 10-5 with higgins (In the finals where they met since 1993) and 9-4 with hendry (also in finals) and head to head osullivan leads both of them and he has more fans than anyone.

  • @CannyFarmKopite Actually, he was found INNOCENT of match fixing and suspended for six months for failure to inform the WPBSA that he had been approached by someone asking him to do so. You should remember that a person is INNOCENT until proven guilty (which he was) and secondly this isn't the first time that someone has been acused of match fixing in snooker and when the player in question has been PROVEN guilty they have been banned for life.

  • @cpacoustic he's a DIRTY CHEATER.

    This SCUMBAG should of been banned 4 life.

  • @cpacoustic He wasn't found innocent, the official report did not go any further with the investigation but agreed that Higgins said what he said on tape but that he was scared for his life. Do you believe that? I don't.

  • @DLPBurke I trust the judgement of the WPBSA and World Snooker who have in the past banned players for life for match fixing. Wouldn't have mattered if it was Stephen Hendry, Steve Davis or Ronnie O'Sullivan, Had the person in question been guilty they would have been banned for life. I maintain however, that had it been any of the three players I mentioned accused rather than Higgins then we wouldn't be having this debate now. Everyone would have accepted their innocence

  • @cpacoustic Then your trust is misplaced, because the official report makes it clear that he is guilty.

  • @DLPBurke If that were so then he would have been banned for life. Why would they have any desire to protect John Higgins? Until this all came out he wasn't that well known outside of snooker fans to be frank. Plus, it was the News of the World who "caught" him in the act. You're willing to trust them over the WPBSA?

  • @cpacoustic LOL no he wouldn't, because there were a few problems. 1. The event was not a world snooker sanctioned event.They could not ban him without fear he could appeal and sue, 2. They could not deal with such a stain on Snooker, it would have been a disaster. They instead decided to DROP CHARGES and ban him for a lesser charge. Had it gone to a proper trial, like the 3 cricketers, he would have been banned for years.The official report makes it CRYSTAL CLEAR.You need to get clued up.

  • @DLPBurke I am clued up. Rupert Murdoch and everything associated with him cannot be trusted. But if you want someone to be angry at feel free=)

  • @cpacoustic The Pakistani cricket board didn't agree and nor did a proper court. Same paper, 3 banned and jailed cricketers.

  • romanul tot roman ! stiti altceva in afara de a injura?

  • Take part in the '1 minute snooker challenge' at Konkura.com

  • higgings for the win

  • He never actually cheated. He was taped discussing the possibility of throwing frames, not entire matches. Also, he didnt actually go through with it. It was a NotW set up. That's what they do. He was WC and they wanted to bring him down to sell newspapers. They're not happy unless they're wrecking someones life. OK, u could say that by even thinking about it he was wrong, so what? He's not perfect, If you were given the chance of an easy 300K are you saying you wouldn't at least think bout it?

  • FUCK YOU JOHN HIGGINS

  • Higgin's ugly, fat arsed wife threatened him with no more sex, if he lost to Trump. Allegedly, after the match, he tried to do the fat whore doggy style in his dressing room..........................­­.............

    BUT COULDN'T DECIDE TO GO FOR THE PINK OR THE BROWN!

  • @SatansApostle666  LOL true

  • fixed

  • Des gleiche spiel war heute auch ;D williams gegen higgins ;D Genial <3 Higgins ! ;*

  • I think its so sad that people are under the belief that he is a cheat or that he agreed to fix matches. What is the point of investigations if people are going to believe that fine 'bastion of journalism' the NoTW. They tried in their usual half cock way to set someone up and their story fell apart under scrutiny. He was only guilty of not reporting it properly but the responsibility for that fell on his manager who was banned for life. He never cheated,NoTW should be forced to proclaim that.

  • i feel that to see up to his connected with best gears and he is expirance and first class come back with above 140 in this year so next becomes many  more possiblities if he consontrate on game which god bless. next time he might win against ronnio in world cup 2011-12. might you see many young can comes as we i am professional billiard player from india. my name is mr.pandia.

  • What a shame all he is going to be remebered for is getting caught agreeing to fix matches,lucky he was such good pals with the boss of snooker Barry Hearn,otherwise he would have got a lifetime ban like Quinten Hann did.

  • @elephantsmemoryband It truly is a shame that people think that as it was proven to be a sting, he was found innocent of match/frame throwing fixing, so to be remembered for something he never did. He was suspeneded pending the investigation +fined for not reportinng the approach, he was afraid for his family as he thought he'd got caught up with a Ukranian mob he was frightened and his manager didn't treat the threat properly hence he was banned.Higgins never threw a single frame,fact!

  • match throwing cheating fat arsed twat

  • @slowdownsundown He was cleared of all allegations of fixing or agreeing to throw matches or frames. It bafffles me that people can't comprehend the NoTW would set someone up to sell papers and blacken names, his family were threatened, like most men he agreed to do anything to keep them safe. He never reported the approach properly for which he was fined, his manager was banned for life as he handled the approach wrongly.NoTW should be forced 2 do a front page apology as its affected his image

  • that was great! sure he got lucky, but are you really gonna take anything away from it? he couldn't help it. table rolled in his favor, rules are made so he has to continue shooting. he did his best and his performance was great!

  • he just beat Ronnie O'Sullivan but it isn't as lucrative as cheating eh John ?

    We should be seeing him winning alot now he's be discovered as being bribable he has to win

  • twat...cant believe he got away with cheating..

  • @spinout3 agreed.

  • Can i ask what was lucky about this?

  • @iCarroller What about 6min50s?

  • @AntiFanBoy1 he is the most boring player ever slow as fuck,and proven he is a fat ugly cheating scotch cunt who has no fans any more should be banned for life the fat cunt

  • @1980slh glad you said what everyone is thinking.

  • John's wife has a really big tits!!!looooooool

  • @AntiFanBoy1 lol STFU. you are wrong ronnie has more talent in his left arm and can win doing nothing. if hes commited then higgins has no chance. he isnt dull as fuck to watch and ronnie doesnt need to cheat. higgins shouldnt even be playing snooker hes nothing but a disgusting fat fixer.

  • @AntiFanBoy1 at his best Ronnie would kill higgins and hes much more enjoyable to watch him play

  • Quinten Hann agrees to cheat and gets a lifetime ban,but unfortunately he was'nt big mates with the boss of snooker.

  • @elephantsmemoryband yeah that and Hann probably didnt have the money to pay for the best lawyers in town..

  • Wow, snooker fans surely are people full of shit.. at least some of them looking at the comments below. Crazy.

    John Higgins didn't cheat, what he did was he said to to a bribe offer, but didn't report it to the proper authorities. That cost his manager his job for life and Higgins suspended for 6 months, which is a proper punishment.

  • @123TauruZ321 when did he say no..he was talking about how easy it would be and how he could cover it up. and he said he went along with it cos he feared for his safety?! what a load of BS!! he was gonna be paid 250k for agreeing to lose a few frames and he gets fined 75k and a 3 month ban..disgusting. the video shows he is guilty as hell his punishment was a joke

  • @123TauruZ321 it was proven he cheat he threw frames for money you daft cunt he admitted to taking the money asswipe

  • @1980slh You got a link to back that up?

  • 6:56 break counter 0 lol

  • what a player OMG,never saw anything like this

  • ZZZZZZZZZ,,BORING AND HIS WIFES,A FKN DOGG,NO,,I MEAN A FAT UGLY,DOGG

  • @theinoffkid agree boring player and a cheat. says he knew nothing about it but no one can be that thick. video evidence proves everything

  • John Higgins is certainly one of the most talented player in the world with Ronnie O'sullivan.Try to do even realize ten per cent of his shots and you'll be able to speak...

    This guy is simply awesome.

  • @narbaleth YOU MUST BE ON SALVIA FFS,THIS GUY,S A CHEAT,NOT TO METION A SUPER BORING TO WATCH PLAYER,,,,

  • @theinoffkid

    Hey man ! I'm classified in french team of english pool (world champions since a long a time ago)... Who are you poor guy ? a nut ?

  • @narbaleth in a french pool team,,,lmfao,world champs,you must be shit if u think john higgins is awsome,,,,he,s a very boring fkn cheat who shud be banned for life ,,,,he,s got zero natural talent ,,thats why his eyes pop -out every fkn shot...,,,,zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz­zzz

  • @narbaleth ps i can prob do more than 90 percent of higgins shots,,,,,if ur any good,,they,re not that diff,1 more thing if higgins or sullivan could do 10 percent of jesse jallreds shots ,then and only then would they be even considerd awsome,,,do ur homework,,b4 preaching,,,

  • oh and lol this cheating batty boy's dad died today. CRACKA GOT OWNED!!!

  • @AntiFanBoy1 incorrect mother fucker the uk was higgins 22cnd title according to the bbc. suck my cock moron

  • he is the best

  • Good  thailand

  • @AntiFanBoy1 I just checked and we are both wrong. They both have 22 ranking titles. Which still leaves Osullivan ahead on centuries and 147's. Your responce?

  • @AntiFanBoy1 Mind telling me why Ronnie has more career centuries, more 147's, and more titles than higgins then?

  • SUCK MAH PIXIE DICK YA CHUBBY COON! Cheating scottish cunt...

  • @outdoorpooltable WELL SED

  • ronnie plays much better than him!

  • @AntiFanBoy1 here mate......do you mind........fucking off?cheers. speaking on behalf of the snooker youtube community xx

  • Higgins is a fighter, he plays best when is atleast 4 frames down. he is a real dream crasher.. Great player of the great sports

  • cheating cunt!!! should be banned for life!!!

  • @throttlejockey77 absolutely agree mate. Great player, but he was pretty much let off with fixing. I am Scottish, but I wanted Williams to win last nite!

  • he is the best ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Why do they have to clap after every shot when there is 7 balls left? :D

  • if you wants to win click my profile

  • lol higgins use to question all the time why ronnie was such a bad bastard (but he really isnt he just knows how to get a laugh) i bet ronnie is fucking lauhing at higgins right know all the people say that ronnie is not a good image to the sport well to tell the truth higgins is a worse image lol

  • the best snooker match ever

  • news just in....... John higgins is a cheating bastard.

  • Can anyone tell me how big a sport billiards is in England? Does it appear on television more often than in the United States? Do more people play snooker or billiards in England than the U.S?

  • @BoundaryShift

    Eh? Snooker is a Billiard game.

    Billiards include Pool and Snooker and some other various ones.

    Unless you're talking about pool, pool is played in England but only Snooker is broadcast on TV.

  • stupid chinese

  • When Higgins enters the Arena for his comeback I hope nobody applauds him. Just total Silence for him. Who's with me

  • @glenclosed

    You know what to do Bradford, sorry, what NOT to do...

  • How come Mooney was banned for life and Higgins got away with it?

    Higgins is guilty, no doubt. Unfortunately he couldn't be the only one

  • fuking cheating bastard i used to like this player he has a hard neck to return to the game when we all know hes a lying cunt

  • john higgins is a discrace to the game of snooker and also to the name of higgins . alex higgins was a true snooker player.

  • LUCKY BASTARD, HIGGINS NEVER WILL BE LIKE RONNIE.HE BEATS ANYONE FROM A BIIIIIG LUCK AND THIS 147 IS SUCH A SHAME .

  • @AntiFanBoy1 Sa-mi bag pula in mata de cacat jeg imputit . Futu-ti muistu mortilor matii sa i-o trag lu mata intre picioare futu-ti gatu matii de cacat ? Il mai injuri mult pe ronnie bagati-ai pula in gat ? RONNIE ESTE CEL MAI BUN NU MATA TACTU SAU TU VOI IMI SUGETI MIE PULA DIN PICIOARE !!!

  • @ShiningFromHeaven I don't understand anything but antishitboy is such disgratefull and he must learn that from no reason you can't hate somebody only if you love him so much and you become jealous on that person .

  • Perfect game with a little bit of luck.

  • nice 147 break, thanks for uploading

  • นาที ที่

    6.48

    ชอบ มาดด

  • he should of reported it to the governing body. Is that not the first thing you would do if you wanted nothing to do with it and had been warned to report all such bribes?

  • higgins is guilty and a cheat he should have lost all his ranking points and gone to the qualifiers after a 2 year ban

  • @MrRogersjon Guilty of having a conversation? big deal, no money was exchanged, get over it

  • @gav25x

    why was he there in the first place? i think hes lieng and got away lightly.

  • @robthesamplist Well the news of the world did a pretty lousy job of ruining his career, they should have waited for him to accepted the cash, wonder why they didnt do it to an English player?. And Higgins went there because his manager asked him to go.

  • @MrRogersjon HEY ROGERS,WHAT YOU JUST WITNESSED IS CALLED SNOOKER NO CALL SHOT,HAD HE CHEATEN THE REF WOULD HAVE STOPED THE GAME. I'M 51 AND HAVE 8 PERFECT GAMES AND WAS IN THE TOP 100 IN CANADA WHEN I WAS AT THE TENDER AGE OF 18 BRO,AND I BEAT CLIFF THORBURN 17 TO 9 IN HIS HOUSE IN TORONTO IN 1989 IT WAS CALLED CLIFF'S PLACE. I RAN TWO 147 IN 17 GAMES. (PRIZE) 10,000 A PEICE FOR THEM.CALLING HIGGINS A CHEAT YOU HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORLD OF SNOOKER. I SEE YOU PLAYING POOL HIGS WAS CHEATED

  • that is amazing

  • Awesome

  • all u fucks that say its luck id like to see u do better

  • @rodger2235 Luck?! What about 6min50sec?!

  • yeah ..... what the hell is wrong with the black ball

    looool it was just fucking with John Higgins i guess..

  • awesome!

  • this is probably the luckiest maximum..

  • a very few people get thier luck working exactly right when thay need it,,, John is one of those few people, i believe.....

  • most valuable FLUKE in the history :):)

  • Twitter: zuixinwen(最新新闻,最好新闻,最有价值新闻,以金融­财经新闻为主)

  • Higgins' wife (I assume it is his wife, his Dad and his Mum) should be arrested for wearing that dress. Who the hell does she think she is? She'll be back to shopping at Marks & Sparks soon anyway, I guess.

  • fucking cheat.ban this motherfucker for life..what a shame,a former world champ,one of the smoothest players in this game got busted for throwing matches

  • That guy shouting "get in" before he took his shot was unbelievably inconsiderate.

  • Cheak out my snooker videos!!

  • Never liked Higgins - glad the cheat has been banned - just get Robertson out of the game too and I'm happy

  • @fitgirls14 get a life. wtf wud u want robertson out of d game for u gypsy piece of shit! u jealous of his talent r sumtin. yes higgins has become corrupt with age and i hope he get wat he deserve but robertson?? get a life u tramp

  • @MrWhosurdaddy09 interesting reply mate, I clearly can see why you like nobheadson - sorry Robertson. I see fans of Robertson act the way he does - ironic! Robertson losing to Gould and he takes a total of 11 minute toilet break in final 2 frames to put Gould off . Robertson shouts COME ON with other tables playing, then against Dott takes 4 and a half minutes to take a shot - prick - yep!

  • higgins is the best

  • johns a fuking scumbag i used to be a big fan.hes the tiger woods of snooker

  • The newspaper should have handed their evidence to the police so they could sting him and find out just how up for it he was ie' card details, money changing hands but its better for the paper to besmirch his name and release it on the day of the final for maximum press and then draw it out, its illegal and they are fucking scum. Its weird I met a girl in a pub from Wishaw a week ago said she knew John and his wife and she told me some stories I couldn't believe but now........well we shall see

  • I wonder how much the russians made on this?

  • makes you wonder how many of them are at it. feel sorry for davis after that game. higgins is a twat.

  • cheater

  • john higgins does not need to cheat to earn some money he just wins games to earn money he is too good to cheat!..lets just see the outcome..

  • @weebug11 and he has proved that with his 3 finals in 3 ranking tournaments with 2 wins

  • @weebug11 HIGGINS SHUD CHANGE HIS NAME TO BOB THE BUILDER,CAN HE FIX IT,,,,,,,,YES HE CAN,,,,,CHEATIN C,U,N,T,,,SHUD BE BANNED FOR LIFE,,

  • Wonder how much people cashed in for John knocking this 147 in?

  • fuckin amazin so fuckin amazing! wish i could play like that!

  • Scum

  • nice, well done higgins

  • 桌球界嘅千古罪人  心術不正 打到曉飛都無用

  • He let down all in snooker, just as Hearn is trying to get things going... Well i hope snooker as a whole learns and the kids who are trying to get a break, should learn a big lession... John Higgins 3 times world champ, and 1 big fucking CHUMP for even been any near a room with potential match fixers.....

  • who would be so stupid to refuse 300K euros rofl

  • @robytudor Not me , but i jasus come on, he will go down as the biggest fuck up of all time in snooker.. He stands to loose just as much now....

  • and he is NOT a cheater. this only happened the other day. so read carefully what you read before you accuse them of cheating. you fucking cunts!

  • @MyNameIsPeterB Ahh yeah he is innocent.. he just went along with it coz he thought they were Russian Mafia,,, WTF was he there in the first place for.... Fucking cheat of the biggest order,, BY BY John he will never again play snooker on TV or any big event.. Now he stands to loose just as much as 300k.. what a fucking dope.. Hope all the kids watching snooker final this year learn from this

  • whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty?

  • Tear off his bollox and use them on the practice table

  • got listen to his side of story to ye dont no if he took the bribe yet

  • WHAT A CHEATING BASTERD!!

    to think...all that money i spent going to see him play snooker..and he secretly could've been purposely loosing frames...

    HE SHOULD BE BANNED FROM SNOOKER FOR LIFE

  • John Higgins CHEATER!!!!!!!!

  • Why didn´t Williams congratulate Higgins???

  • No he did

    look at 10:34 he just standed up to cong.

    then stop the video at 10:39 u will see williams ass :p, which means that he just congratues john and turned back

  • The power of media.

  • JOHN HIGGINS cUE BALL control is better than SEX.

  • the camerawork is really bad. Why didn't they record that black-ball fluke? What a shame.

  • Fantastic game and technique, spectacular flukes, great potting and positioning. That's the way i love John Higgins!

  • yes

  • The camera work at 7:00 is not-so-good - producers even caught off-guard.

  • Nice video.. Thanks... That black at 6:55 was going away from the pockets after it first missed. Do you think that he gave it a nudge with his hand or stick? Notice how they panned the camera away from him at just the right convenient moment?

  • lol chinese snooker commentary is so pointless :P

  • Unless you're in China, which a lot of Chinese people are.

    :P

  • nah not really.

    The commentator is just stating the obvious. He's not straight. If he screws back, the commentator will tell you, higgins has just screwed back. No shit sherlock, we just saw
