Wasn't it from here that Hendry won 10 in a row way back when?

Who's squirming? Grow a pair and we'll bet.

Actually what I said was that the shot was too easy for professionals in a real competition, and that as such it gains an unfair advantage. I went on to say that I would bet on doing 100 in a row and maybe 1000 if the bet was high enough. Thaiger, who doesn't actually play snooker of course...

Clearly, but your ignorance on all things cue sport is well documented. You are the guy , after all, who thinks rolling a cueball three inches is difficult and that Neil Robertson is a slow player. Those of us who are well-informed know about Alex's prowess very well, though, as clearly...

Well kudos to Hearn for giving him the wild card though, just as I suggested he might, by the way. However I think once he gets used to the British conditions he will do well. There's certainly nothing about the game he should find that difficult, and he has a lot of star power. Now getting...

I watched the Brecel match and I sure like his game, but I don't think he's going to get past Mark King. He just makes too many errors. My prediction: Luca Brecel sleeps with the fishes!

Like that rolling a cueball for or five inches so it lays on an object ball is somehow a hard shot for a professional player, among other things.

LOL, I'm not confusing anything with anything. I've run hundreds of "centuries" and I know an easy shot when I see it. I would say top pros leave it short on occasion because it's so easy they sometimes take it for granted (or, like most true Englishmen, they choke their brains out). Offer a...

LOL, okay. Well I haven't missed one yet. Tell you what, you should do a poll in the main forum and ask the pool players there how hard they think it is to roll the cue ball up to an object ball from a few inches behind it. I'd bet you half the forum could do it 1000 in a roll. Hell, it's...

Just thought I'd pop in and remind everyone how on top of things Thaiger was once again... And this from a guy who couldn't run out if the room was on fire. Awesome. :thumbup:

Because you've seen him play how many times, exactly? Meanwhile I have seen him play, and I've seen all the top snooker players both live and on tv going all the way back to the 80s as well, and based on what I've seen, if you put Alex up against just about all of them in a long match I...

Sorry, but you simply have no idea what you're talking about here. Alex would most likely crush most snooker players not just at snooker, but at any game you'd care to name, and that includes players ranked well up into the top 20. I'm not sure how he'd fare against some of the game's stars...

Atmosphere is one thing but nothing brings the viewers like exciting matches and charismatic players. Barry Hearn really needs to give a wildcard for this event to Alex Pagulayan. Not only is he the most charismatic player in cuesports but I heard he also won the Canadian national snooker...

Meh, no one compares to Venom... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4g-KZzGdr7k

A change in color scheme might be interesting. Like saying playing an event or two on sky blue cloth instead of the green. One of the problems with snooker is that all the events look the same. Why not change one or two up? Well sort of agree. Funny, because I remember when they first...

I would submit that a lot of these things would have happened regardless of who was at the helm. They should have hired someone from the world of tennis or golf.

Aside from the PTC events what has he accomplished? Power Snooker is a joke, and ratings aren't any higher than they were before he was brought back. It's not like he added a bunch of new ranking events. Snooker needs someone with more of an international focus. The game's future is the...

Gosh, if the European player are so good they must just be lining up to play Shane some races to 100. Why, just think of the cash they could make! Oh wait, but they're not. Hmm, I guess it must be because they know they would get absolutely SLAUGHTERED, as in fact all of them have when they...

LOL, it's easy enough that I'll bet I can do it 100 times in a row. 1000 if you want to bet real high. Interested? The bottom line is that the "tuck up" shot or whatever you call it is outdated and should be taken away. It makes no sense for a player to get to get such a huge advantage for a...

Yeah, I have to agree. I like Earl but his behavior when he plays is an embarrassment to the game. Even McEnroe at his worst was nowhere near this bad. It's got to stop.
