the new age of snooker pt I
Guest Mon Jan 24, 2011 10:15 am
this weekend, barry hearn will be starting his mission to fuck snooker right up with the sky sports one frame shoot out comp, held over the weekend with the top 64 players in random draws, each match being a single timed frame, players having to play all shots within 20 seconds and no frame to take more than 12 mins.
the crowd will be encouraged to get well pissed beforehand on cheap booze, scream the players into the arena doing silly walkons like darts and as it's speedball pub style snooker, the crowd will be encouraged to wave silly banners in the air and shout as much as they want while the frame is being played.
the only good thing about this is that it won't suit that boring cheating cunt ebdon, the cunt.
by 2012 barry should have integrated the world darts, pool and snooker comps into one mad drunken weekend olympics of pub games and it will be held in a big pub somewhere in the midlands with free drugs being provided with the cheap booze and the final will involve a fight in the car park - r.i.p. snooker

Will billiards ever make a comeback or doesnt it appeal to young players Abdul?
Bloke called Joe who's in our bowing team still plays it down at the village club, he says its a better game all together.

Didn't billiards fall by the wayside because the top players found a way of tip tapping the balls in the corner for 7 hours at a time until everyone died of boredom?

it's by far a better game than snooker as it is infinitessimal in what you can do in it, i doubt it will ever appeal to younger people as it isn't fashionable and when i started playing it at 32 i was looked on as a freak by everyone who played it or didn't
you can win a game of pool in 8 shots or less and a game of snooker in 19 shots and i've done both but my best break at billiards is 76 and i was still a rank beginner when i stopped, there is no end to a break of billiards, only what score limit you set on a match, you could play a break forever with the 3 balls if you were good enough and walter lindrum had the ability to do that, nearly
it's like chess to draughts or bridge to snap, it is much more a mental intelligence game
my billiards cue was made in 1890 to commemorate w j peall making a world record break and i've got some old books from 1900-ish which i bought for coaching, i really should start paying again, it's just the local hall shut and it's difficult finding practice partners
i hope it don't get popular as if it did barry hearn would fuck it up

no, they just changed the rules when that happened to outlaw the shot, it was called the 'cradle cannon' and when someone discovered the shot the pros realised they could exploit it, when one bloke scored a half million point break over six weeks the shot was banned http://www.eaba.co.uk/articles/tomReeceRecord/cradleCannonRecord.html
billiards was really popular around the war and after with walter lindrum but once snooker became more popular that was what killed off billiards
people grew up playing pool and snooker and if they're any good they want to play in teams or comps for money, billiards is not a team game or a money game, it is a enjoyment game and you need to be a good cue person to play it and have a mind to understand it
i have a long weekend coming up, i may dust my cues off

seriously, after a week the crowd was let in for free and his opponent just stood next to the ref for five weeks solid, he was scoring about 10,000 points a day in an eight hour day and was supposed to have pointed at his opponent and said to the crowd "did he buy a ticket, he is just spectating you know"
that's why the rules were changed, last time i played it was 15 consecutive hazards max then a cannon or 75 consecutive cannons then a hazard, as a snooker player i had no problem getting to the 15 hazards as potting the red off the black and blue spot is a piece of piss but i never got near 75 cannons

this is a genuine pic taken during his six week half million point break and shows tom reece playing thecradle cannon while his opponent joe chapman stands next to the ref, where he stood for 5 weeks, though tom apparently took a monday off for a personal engagement and resumed on tuesday
aparently after a couple of weeks the ref pulled up a chair and sat next to the pocket rather than stand up
let's see barry hearn jizz that up!

Absolute quality Abdul, i dont think it would appeal to an armchair spectator like my mother or get jonesy sexed up when she's watching Ronnie O

when i played the only competition localy was leagues and only the old boys played billiards and they couldn't pot for shit but their cannons and in-offs were good but they didn't like some young fucker coming in and potting like a whirlwind - even though you were limited to 15 consecuive pots before you had to make a cannon they still thought i was 'unsporting' 
we used to play first to 150, not half a million and it generally took 30-45 mins depending on the speed of the game and the old duffer playing it - my best was a 76 and a 60-odd next visit and i won the game in a few visits leaving the poor old cunt embarrassed on 20-something - i won the billiards ko comp that year

Cradle cannons, yes.
They did run a one frame knockout way back in the 80s, IIRC. Obviously didn't catch on when it was won by some unknown shmoe

Clare's still there, Tony. Not sure if they're Clare, Padmore and Thurston now, though.

what a load of old cock
even got a fucking robot voiceover, music walkon, pissed crowd with some divs and oldies who didn't know thinking "wtf?!"
all wearing t-shirts including the obligatory woman ref (no andy gray analysis tho
)
i guess bazza told the top 64 "you must all join n these wank ideas i have and you'll get paid fuck all for them but i will treble the prize money in the proper comps within a year or two"
just notice the t-shirts have fucking numbers on, in case the spaz crowd don't recognise 'em

ronnie gets a ton and doesn't realise he's won, he must be cunted already and then standing in front of some kids when told there's no max break prize he says "oh shit" and presenter apologises
now it's the nugget against cheaty slaphead cunt ebdon - it will take them the ten minutes just to shake hands and get ready to take their first shot
