100 break billiards Walter Lindrum

A skillful game played by a master of it, but its just not entertaining enough for tv. I would much rather watch a hunrdred break in snooker than watch a bunch of cannons along the rail. No disrespect, its just not entertaining for most people.

can any1 explain me how is this game played..I understood nothing..=S

Pure genius.

Genius! Does anyone agree that trad billiards needs to come back into fashion? It's so much better than snooker and 8 ball.

he was my uncle!

unbelievable. my bests 38.

fucking hell i struggle to make 30+ breaks :|!!
need to learn the game more

Absolute genius. I know modern players don't come near his sheer talent but what are the highest modern breaks? I once spoke to Dave Causier years ago (we're both Boro lads) and he told his highest break was something like 729! Probably even higher now.

Dude,
i couldnt agree more, but their is only 1 player i think comes this close thats the Rocket!!

This was so great. You can really see the difference in sharpness between the play here and the other youtube post in 1957. This is Lindrum at the height of his remarkable powers. Thanks so much (for ten years, i taught a calculus course. In exams, all the "constant" terms were my tribute, 4137. Funny thing, not one students i ever spotted the recurrence of this number, or asked its meaning)
