Ronnie doing Ronnie Things - Highest Break Ever

I know in the past snooker tables were governed by non-published templates controlled by the WST (or other snooker org) that would verify the pockets were all in spec. Did that practice stop?

there is some wiggle room, apparently, and it has been just that - apparent - in chinese and saudi events. in short, these promoters want a good show first and foremost
 
turned it around and dashed in 82 to win the semi. first final in a few years i think?

Ronnie lost 10-9 to Robertson in the Saudi Masters in August 2025. That’s a major tournament and the same event he made 2 147s in a single match.

He hasn’t played a lot of tournaments lately. Keeps withdrawing. Hopefully he wins this one and runs deep at the Worlds. Would love to see him win #8.
 
that was cool, thanks for the link

at some points in the run he was taking full advantage of the generous pockets the chinese (and saudis) have in their events. incredible achievement either way, of course
The finer details. 👍
Such an incredible accomplishment.
Obviously time to promote the monthly subscription that gives me archival access along with the live event. Judd Trump vs Un-Nooh is in progress with Ronnie coming again soon. Shrug 🤷‍♂️.

Wst.tv live is incredible value. HUGE lessons available. Shrug 🤷‍♂️
 
In golf - table golf, there are deductions if you don't hit your ball. I think its back one hole per foul. In snooker I recall when all the reds are gone, fouls are assessed according to the point value of the ball in play.

In snooker the minimum foul value is 4 points (awarded to the opponent). So if you are on a red (worth 1 point) and don’t hit a red it’s 4 points. If you are on the yellow (worth 2 points) and foul it’s 4 points. If you foul a ball worth more than 4 (the blue 5, the pink 6, the black 7) then the foul is worth the value of the ball. So if you hit the black by accident it’s a 7 point penalty.

Yesterday, I tried to sign up for wst.tv. First, there is no "Sign Up Now" button anywhere. It took me 15 minutes to figure out that I needed to sign up for an account for the website first. After providing some information, I got my website account. Second, when I then tried to subscribe to wst.tv, I had to fill out another form, and about half way through that form, I quit.

If someone knows anybody that is associated with that website, tell them they need a "Sign up Now" button for wst.tv with one form to fill out, and all you should have to provide is your credit card info, like any other web transaction.

Yeah that's what I was getting at thanks.
