everyone seems to know that he can play left-handed but I still dunno how he develops it.

PS: i remember reading ur guide in a chinese website many months ago about cueing rapidly in order to groove the arm into cueing straight..

What are you talking about with the PS: note? I'm always interested in learning...

Amazing dexterity! I cut my teeth playing snooker on those huge 6 x 12 snooker tables. Use to play snooker all day then go out to the bars and hustle up the evening party funds on the 3 1/2 x 7 pool tables. After playing snooker all day the pockets on the bar pool table seemed like they were a foot wide. I could make shots blind folded..haha. Those were to good ol days! Table cloth actually had nap! You brushed your hand on the cloth and could see the nap lay down.
 
I see two new bridges for Ronnie. Open bridge where middle and ring fingers are tucked in like Taiwanese pool star Yang does....and a closed bridge...have never seen one used in snooker before...

the crazy Alex Higgins was already using it in the 80s.

I love to do that aswell...going from 12ft. to 7ft. is stunning....even on 9's it makes it look so easy.....

Great stuff Colin. Thanks so much. I tried playing on a 12' in China. Helpless does not begin to describe my play.

By the way, did anyone else notice that on the final 7 ball, Ronnie could have easily shot it right handed, but just for emphasis he shot it in lefty to send a subtle message to poor Mr. Cope.

You're bringing back all the good memories! Those really were the good old days. Pity I couldn't have played on a 12ft tonight before the weekly tourney.
