Shooting Some Hoops - A Snooker Masterclass with Simon Ball

I was inspired by Ronnie's snooker video to the point where I made my own. I'm kind of taking the piss, but my explanation of the shots is vaguely serious.
This is part 1 and contains the secrets of some of the most potent shots in my artillery.
No matter what your standard of pool/snooker, I guarantee that you will pick up some useful tips to enhance your game from this guide - or your money back!

Shots include:
An Easy Shot
Into The Middle
The Break
Roll Up - Who Is The Comedian?!
Donnie-Double
Down The Line, Mate!
Surely That's A Foul!

Check back soon for more.

To all those people who think this is serious: get brains...

[goodman1234321]

it is deadly serious; i've hustled many a fool using only shots in this video

[goodman1234321]

In retrospect the bit at the start is a bit corny; I think I was trying to make it funny though, because most people will only watch the first 20 seconds.

For everybody's information, I now have a respectable haircut.

The cue-over-the-shoulder-what-a-c­omedian shot does actually work. I was in the Coster's a few weeks ago and this guy was mouthing off saying he got to the final of the British pool championships and I was like yeah-yeah-whatever, and I let him pot a few balls and then I counter-attacked and rolled up to snooker him about 5 times on the trot - I totally got him on tilt and he snapped. Then I potted the black off the break in the next frame - the thing about the imaginary cue ball really works.

Liverbirdy8, why don't you take your "Graeme Dott's guide to a steady bridge hand" and shove it up your arse.

I did the video because I believe we should use the internet as an open-source tool to share knowledge, and I wanted to give out some of the secrets to my shots to try and advance the game for the good of all mankind.

Anyway, I would like to refer you to the credits section of "Shooting Some Hoops 2 - A Snooker Trickshot" where you can make up an insult for yourself.

lame video.. -_-.. pointless

[supersav99]

Shame he's using the wrong tip on that cue as well as the wrong cue....he only plays easy shots and I'd wish the guy whom walked past wouldve played as the main guy cant play one decent shot........such a waste of 2 mins of my life...
