Ronnie O'Sullivan 147 - World Championship 2008

[lmfaoatthat]

what is a 147??

[Smargiasso33]

@lmfaoatthat a 147 is the maximum break for a snooker game. it's only achievable by potting all the 15 reds paired with 15 black balls...that gives you 120 points, that added up to the last 27 points (all the 6 colors) give you 147 points. hope its clear :)

[lmfaoatthat]

@Smargiasso33 thanks alot ! :D

[XusClaw]

Ronnie did a great job here and on all maximums he has made aswell.

He was and is the best because of his ability of playing with both hands which is a great plus against all other players.

He is astonishing.

Just a reminder, Judd Trump is an upcoming potential, he's left-handed. I like his style of play and still, he is young.

He's good, I like him.

But let's not forget, this is Ronnie, "The Rocket". Go Ronnie!

[kangdedde]

is the match over when some 1 hits a maximum break?

[emads16]

Ronnie holds now the record with 10 maximum breaks since he made one in the world open in Scotland a few days ago agains Mark King.

[kmp3000]

Brilliant. Snooker Legend.

[neo440x]

not just about the pace he plays the game, but when something goes wrong on the table... as though he thinks "no problem.. i'll just do the 147  for a recovery.." phew... absolute bonkers, but simply the best. no words..

[csincia85]

Szeretem ahogy játszik igaz nem mindig van jo formában,de ö a kedvencem,akkor is amikor nem ö a nyerö,grat neki.A többiek is jok,klasszul játszik,profi.Azért még nem égett ki.

[vatolocodogues]

i just love this guys play!unbelivable!

[1mikosh]

o'sullivan like mr:ben in face  genius

[wowolay]

how many time did he do 147? awesome

[marksmurph]

@wowolay He's made 9 of the 70 maximums ever made in professional tournaments. Stephen Hendry matched this last year.

Ronnie made the 5 fastest 147s in history, the fastest being 5 minutes 20 seconds :)

[LizzyAston]

funny how people comment on him being a genius after watching the video, with the last word being "genius"

[flriinnn]

He is close to perfection...

[gredangeo]

Why is the cloth so loose on the table for? Doesn't mess up the shots? At 1:14 it looks so bad.

[marksmurph]

@gredangeo It's not loose at all. There are finger marks where the players' hands have changed the direction of the nap. The cloth is ironed before each match, so it marks as the games go on. You won't find a finer cloth anywhere.

[ltmv3392]

@marksmurph the felt cloth just looks different tones of green from the direction its pushed its not stretched

[zanist123]

@gredangeo yh that year it was really bad

[gagstx1]

does anyone reckon he looks

a weeny bit like rowin atkinson?

[akarmide]

ronnie is a genius:Dever and ever:Dthe best

[19Jackass90]

[Drummerspaz]

6.33 ncfc in the crowd :D!!!

[onefour7]

how would you even play 6:47? i'm guessing top right hand english stun run through?

[silverspiels]

nice to see players stop and people applauding behind the screen!!

[s0015]

great vid, shame about audio delay.

[scouserdan3]

hendry is also 39 where ronnie is.. and ronnie has as many maximums as him... face it ronnie is best ever

[HOMEOFTONE]

@zzzzzzyyyy CHEATING??? GROW UP MAN..RONNIES THE BEST ...PERIOD.

[gagstx1]

not period

don't think you can get more that

147 on a single break

haha

[NMtB4ev4]

I hate people who think Higgins is as good as Ronnie. Ronnie is miles better and more successful.

[GenghisKhanPolitics]

@NMtB4ev4 You're wring. They're exactly in the same level and about the same number of titles. Do some fact checking.

[Uyghur520]

I Love him>He is soooo good.Very good.

[8youllneverwalkalone]
