You might get the impression from some threads here that Ronnie O'Sullivan is the only snooker player to play perfect games (maximum of 147 points in one frame), but most tournament 147s are by other players. Here is one in the current Champion of Champions tournament by Mark Selby:

Note Selby's fundamentals. In particular, note what he does with his back leg and when he does it.

Selby, who is from Leicester is known as the "jester from Leicester." Those two words rhyme there, evidently. O'Sullivan prefers to call him "The Torturer" for how much pressure he puts on his opponents in matches. Selby is the current #1 (based on money won in ranking events over the last two years). This was his fifth lifetime 147 in competition.

His opponent, Neil Robertson, won the match. Robertson has the record for most "centuries" (breaks over 100 points) in a season of 103. Robertson has won over $4,000,000 in his career and has had problems from video game addiction.

Not only is Ronny certainly not the only perfect game achiever, but here's a guy who can do it under 4 minutes. That is incredible.

The mad snooker channel, he is indeed very good! He has some unbelievable videos. You have to remember tho, he shoots his videos in his garage, not at the live tv table!!

Shooting in a garage is good practise...you get used to parking whitey.
