Practice practice practice

Pang's switch to the Left instantly is evidence.
Ronnie speaks of the Robotics in a previous interview. He puts it on display.
Further evidence: It's so hard to beat your Master. Pang has the physical, Just needs the mental. The camera angles are putting every aspect on display. Study study study.
 
4.15.23 Saturday: Much anticipated match this morning.
It's Ronnie's opening match in the World Championship. Playing Pang Junxu. What a lesson.
Woops the video went private. The free teaser is over. Sure was a bargain while on. I will have to subscribe (I am pretty sure) before the evening session. Lots more good stuff from the whole event.🤷

DAZN has it . Lots of lessons for 25 bucks.
Vafai switch of hands almost un noticed.
Sunday 4.16.23
Oh the aspirin. Take one. The one in the center of the cue ball.
Flavor of the day; Random draw. Deal the 4 pads to the table at random. Place a ball on each of the object pads. The dealer pad for the 3 cue balls at one end and the other 3 towards the other.

kick to them with 1 point per rail.

Any ball

You take your chances
Would by my carney pitch.🤷

Well Right was proud of the 7 point shot one handed. One rail from the left. Then Right nailed the gentle rear rail kick to the 15 for a maximum 10 points. Then gave Lefty a free second attempt at the 4 railer to the 9 ball. Lucky Lefty giggle after 12 point shot.

The Method I try to employ (as a retired one). Is put on display by Mark Williams this morning. Top flight match in progress.
My Slow Game: Probably the best compliment I have ever heard was, "I can't beat your Slow Game".
 
One of my earliest revelations was, l can't play as fast as Ronnie. I prefer Deliberate over Slow:wink:
The layout-o-the day.Right picked the side rail to side railZ to the 15. One handed of course.

Ah the plan revisions. A strength I developed while my cue ball was not under full control.
The Snooker World Championship should come down to the control of the white. Vafai looking scarey good. Friday match with Ronnie could be Epic.
 
Stephen Hendry made a similar assessment that precise control of the white should be the deciding factor in this event. :Hmmmm:
 
Ah the morning sun.

It caught me and I had to place The Rags of Shame over the first two completed targets. To eliminate the reflection. The final challenge was left rail right rail left. 3 rails required.
 
All of a sudden it's 2 frames all with Trump and Magill. Good background for my morning wellness program.
The Z challenge is suited to the warming sun coming through the door.
Take off Z bra is a 2nd grade joke that my son told me. So a good name for the Challenge will be Z bra.
 
Late flight:shrug:

The Delta formation challenge of the day.
Just pocket a ball, any ball. Bonus points negotiable:wink:
 
If you have ever paid for a lesson! Ronnie VS Vafaei is a huge bargain. Just a top class production. The A Team. I applause the entire production team.👍
World Championship 2023
4.21.23
Ronnie O'Sullivan VS Hossein Vafaei
 
The DAZN has Me engrossed in the matches. Doing the Yogi, observing by watching.
I am observing lots. Well on rehab so....Just noticed Mark Williams stretching his left shoulder in much the same way my treetopped one handed opener is giving my shoulder rehab.
The eye looks on Ronnie and Vafaei were great. I am reading Ronnie good. Vafaei took a while but my final guess is same as Judd. I thought I might have seen variation. 🤷 maybe why he missed.
Their cue tips are getting good display and is interesting what tips each uses and how that is reflected in strengths or weakness.
And oh yeah Ronnie had a different wrapper on his chalk. Hmm will look closer next time. 😉
Ronnie commenting that he likes getting riled up reminded me of my first "Big boys victory" and I had Lake City Red to thank. Oh he got me worked up and it lasted all the way through the finals. Which came so late Sunday night.
Gotta wonder what made Vafaei poke him.
🤷
 
4.22.23
Good morning for watching Ronnie. OMG
Initial noticed that Ronnie switching to the Left hand doesn't get commenting anymore. Second noticed is the degree of precision in placement of the cue ball. The good looks at his eye pattern yesterday convinced me that I am on the right path.
Precision placement comes from precise striking. Focusing on the strike down to the millimeter. Stephen Hendry commenting while Ronnie puts it on exhibition is sublime.
 
Sunday definitely observation day. Right after Fitness. Definitely:wink: snooker on the telly gives me inspiration.
First comes a set of balls.
3 cue balls, any stripe works
3 object balls
4 alien pads.
The score keeping is to maintain my ment uh mint mental fitness.
The honest competition to elevate my game.
What Fun.
