snooker pro tips 1, pink played with running,check and plain ball striking

[MrWepsa]

Want to get on the main tour soo bad but cant afford the 1,000 pound for Q school and i need so much more money for my car and travelling, plus i need my own table its pissing me off my pro snooker carer is going down the pan im 25 and getting on a bit too late you think?

[dagreatmogul]

Neil, when playing with running side, you are actually aiming too thick on the object ball knowing that the cue ball will push to the right and make the angle. Is this correct? I can play the shot but generally tend to instictively 'feel' the shot after many years of playing.

[dagreatmogul]

Bottom right hit hard would have been a good shot to show, swinging around the angles for position on the black! An Alex Higgins special!

[FCSchalke77]

Ronnie would screw that shot in and out of baulk with check side lol ....

[dagreatmogul]

@FCSchalke77 CORRECTION! Running side you would need!

[FCSchalke77]

@dagreatmogul ..... I'm sorry, but what are you correcting me about? I'm an ex professional and know exactly what running side is and check side plus everything else about the game.

[FCSchalke77]

@dagreatmogul .... If you are commenting on me saying Ronnie would screw that shot in and out of baulk with "check side" ... I was saying this cause it's Ronnie and he can do anything with the cue ball, obviously the shot to go in and out of baulk is with running side, but can't you see I was being funny about it cause it is Ronnie ...

[VehBoring]

Like for example i hit the center of the cue ball of a certain angle for the shot (A). IF i decided to apply side, do i need to aim thinner , thicker or (A) ??

Thank you Neil for all your lessons.

Could you demonstrate some of the ways to put a snooker on your opponent, from different positions. What I mean is; the best strategy to use with table length shots, cross table shots, balls on the rails, etc. I think this is a large part of the game that is not shown much in tournament play. Thanks

Check Side Definition

A type of cue ball spin utilized to cause the cue ball to rebound from a cushion at and angle which is shallower than the angle would be it if the spin had not been used. [Billiard Dictionary updated 10/24/2007]

@joshua120775 thanks for the comment joshua .........i proved that i was right and always was right in pro tips clips 66 & 67 and this has put an end to any of the arguements feel free to view them

[IrishandProud345]

will putting side on the cue ball mess up my potting (will the cue ball deflect another way making me miss the shot)?

[neilmaxman]

@IrishandProud345 yes it will .......if it is you're just a beginner to the game .......keep it simple and stick to the centre line of the cueball

[NabilBreda]

@neilmaxman

so you have to correct for the cue ball direction when applying side?

[pualusmaximus]

xlnt thanks

[neilmaxman]

@pualusmaximus thank you for watching and commenting 

[FCSchalke77]

@pualusmaximus .... I would give this advice as well on the match tables, even a trace of side on the match tables throws it off line ...

[danchav8ball]

Hi neil can you please do a little clip on potting into the middle pocket's with side allowing for throw, the aiming point's etc Thank's.

well played and well explained. thanks for making me a better player with the knowledge that you are passing on . I can now concentrate on the touch side of the game and feel the shot and get that cue ball in the correct position for a sizable break . cheers J.R.

[NickTRecordz]

in fact, now that ive looked again, i think ur right, the second shot would be check side as it straightens up the angle off the cushion...

[snookergirl92]

can't you come up with somthing original.

[neilmaxman]

thank you for your comment............the originality of it is, is that it's been done properly .........perhaps you should at least try it to see if it actually works
