I have watched Luke play in regular pro tournaments and he does shoot very fast as Alan Hopkins said. Faster than any other player I have seen. It amazes me that he can make the balls at that speed.
He does not run around the table like he does in speed pool however.
@Doderhultarn89 you are wrong. Snooker has only one game but in Pool , there is many game to play. 9 ball, 10 ball, 8 ball, Rotation ( 15 ball ), One Pocket, 14.1 ( Straight Pool ) etc.
I think this is the main reason why many people in the other country don't play Snooker. When they get bored in Snooker, they can' t play other game on the Snooker table while in Pool, when they get bored in 9 ball, they can play 8 ball or other games.
@AlTarik I think the main reason why many people in the other country dont play snooker is becose of the size of snooker tables. They are to big and heavy.
@AlTarik but people who get bored with snooker are just impatient. like i always say pool is more fun but snooker is the better sport. go and watch some alex higgins clips and youll realize how entertaining snooker can be :)
@Doderhultarn89 I don't know where to find a Snooker in Wisconsin but if you want to test your skills meet me at the next state tournament. If you can beat me in a race to five we can talk about how hard snooker is.
@Doderhultarn89 really? come here in Japan and I will beat you in 8 ball....if you want more headache come to Philippines, play 9ball or 10 ball and your brain will bleed for thinking how to scape very hard safety.
don't you observe, that most of the left-hander seems to play fast like Rodney Morris, Ronnie O' Sullivan ( note: he is really a right hander but he shoot with his left hand too) and Luc Salvas.
I have the exact same table at my house! I posted a video at my local poolhall recently, Golden Fleece Billiards, Seattle, WA, running a rack of fifeteen balls perfectly in under a minute(espn takes a ten second bonus from the time so officially 49 seconds!!). I'd like to see a speed pool pro do that on the tough "Diamond tables"! Response anyone??!!!
Ok, here's a response: Pool players do all kinds of amazing things in the comfort of their own local pool rooms. Unfortunately, it means absolutely nothing unless you can do it under the pressure of TV cameras and professional competition.
That was impressive, but it's actually pretty sad that ESPN feels the need to air something like this. It's a shame that the traditional pool games aren't "interesting" enough.
Dave "the ginger wizard" Pearson makes Luc look like a turtle compared to him. I wonder why Dave doesn't have any of his 24 world records for speed pool posted on youtube.
Hey everyone, What is the pool players name that has the speed pool record? he is a joy to watch too. he runs around the table screaming "come on", tall. Let me know thanks.
Check out the original "Machine Gun" Lou Butera on my videos. "Machine Gun Lou Butera runs out 15 balls under 90 seconds" Is the title of clip. He did it in 64 seconds.
what are the rules? Pot any ball anywhere? Whats the fun of it? Then at least play 8 or 9ball against yourself? And the first shot, white in the pocket? No problem, ball in hand??? :/ My friend and I play this game everynow and then. Our rules are 8ball rules and max 2 secs thinking for each shot.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Where's the skill? No position play, no strategy and you only really have time to make the most basic shots. I'll stick to 8-9-straight-one pocket-bank..anything that actually involves concious thought and execution. Entertaining though.
You don't know what you're talking about... In this game, you don't want the cueball to travel too much. When the cue ball is rolling, you're waisting time. So you try to position yourself straight for every shot to play an easy stop shot without finding your way with cushions.
Announcer acted like he planned for the position he got on the last ball. pffffft.. He got good shape, but he didn't have a clue where the last ball and the cue ball would be when he shot that combination at the end. Dumb luck it ended that way, straight in...
It's not only MSN chat language, it's intentionally sounding uneducated to try to fit into certain ingroups. It doesn't take more time to type correct English, especially since you will have to use it whenever you write in the real world. Of course, it's your choice...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the balls on the table are allowed to be rolling as long as the cue has come to a complete stop.
siderisbooks 3 years ago 17
You are absolutly correct the cue has to be stopped before the next shot . Object balls can be moving .
