This club in this video are on the right road with introducing the cue ball in hand. This website backs the rule. It would speed up frames. Make less hassle for having balls replaced and potential arguments happening at amateur level where the balls were – as the amateur game doesn’t have the fancy equipment […]

This was a shot I played yesterday that was another remarkable shot – one of a few but a highlight of yesterday’s practice frames at Oxshott. These are particularly difficult pots – but extremely rewarding when you get them. In some cases, potting VERY difficult balls in a frame can be as rewarding as breaks […]

Listen to the sizzle below – a deliciously warming curry stir-fry cooked in a KEN HOM WOK… Sausage Curry Stir-Fry I love sausages. And I love curry. Most amateur snooker players like me love a curry. Curries are also good for fending off colds and flus and for sweating them out. Here’s my version of […]

Cueing consistently is more important than trying to perfect a dead straight cue action… Human beings aren’t machines.We don’t move like robots.We don’t deliver cues on a laser track. Even the world’s best players don’t cue perfectly straight.Watch them in ultra slow-motion and you’ll see tiny deviations in: Every stroke has micro-variations — because humans […]

SnookerZone’s Chris Gaynor has entered the event this year for the first time after discovering there was a shoeshine championships last […]

This is a perfect example of two players lacking a proper “pre-shot” routine and it lacks consistency in their set -up. Whilst some players might get away with this – when the push comes to shove, at certain tension points a player with no defined routine when approaching the shots will be inconsistent in the […]

Snooker isn’t about perfection – it’s about progression in real frames… There’s nothing wrong with practice routines in principle. But the line-up — reds neatly placed, blacks waiting obediently on their spot — has become something else entirely. For me, it’s not just overrated. It actively misleads players about what snooker really demands. And I […]
