>Doherty having a cheeky look at Lelby's arse as he walked away
Why the fuck can I not watch a match this year that doesn't have Jon fucking Virgo or Willie bellend Thorne commentating.

>muh anus

>>67218007

High quality so far.
>>67217936
/r/ing 1 & 2 pls
Morning lads.
Who else just woke up hung over here? Ready for a calm day of snooker.
Missed some of the last frames yesterday. The tie is a pleasant surprise to me.

It's his best shot at it.

How does a gentleman's game like snooker attract so many ruffians?

>I'll just do one quick journey to Praha.
>Still playing three hours later.
>>67218678
>gentleman's game
it's a pub game
>>67218693
Snooker has its roots in the gentry. Other cue games might have more to do with the pub.

Can't imagine the fatigue if I had a wheel setup.
would rather root for anyone else other than Selby , no idea why someone would support Ebdon 2.0
>>67218777
I'll root for the underdog against Mark but I don't really have a problem with him. He seems decent enough, if a tad arrogant, and he's not controversial. I'd take Selby over someone like Neil Robertson because Mark actually has a personality.
>only ever played American pool, 8 ball, 9 ball, etc.
The fuck is this shit? Holy shit I can barely follow it. Kinda neat though.
>>67218890
Lets just say it way better than glorified catch with full body armour
the sad thing is no one will remember Selby being a total wanker against Fu and Milkins if he wins the title
>>67218890
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjSWUTkupQo
Jesus christ selby is fucking dire. You can only imagine what an absolute bore he is on the tour to get to world number 1
>>67218926
> table is 12 feet by 9 feet
Shiiiiet. And I thought a 9 foot gave for some tough shots.
>crowd getting excited but it never looked like going in
the absolute cheek of Virgo to say this
>>67218945
12x6
>>67218937
Isn't getting to number 1 in most sports just about playing a load of events and winning a lot of money though (as in it doesn't speak too much about quality)? Like in tennis if Andy Murray was number one everyone knows he'd still get his shit pushed in by Djok any day of the week.
>>67218945
Snooker table is fucking massive. You don't always realise how big it is with the top down TV camera angle.
>>67218970
Yea exactly. He turns up to every event and bores his opponents to defeat
>>67218970
It's often about being consistent as fuck yeah. They changed the ranking system for snooker in 2010 I think. Most people don't know or can be arsed to learn how these rankings work in most sports anyway.
Seeing as this match is dire
To the Finnish bro who's usually ITT: I'm going to Finland in the summer, what should I go see?
COME ON MARCO, HE'S A CUP
bucket holes
>>67218970
Not really. Djokovic is the only player to CONSISTENTLY play well and win these events to be #1
Murray never has been consistant enough to ever be #1
>>67219060
I think Neil Robertson's tweeted about it approximately 200 times since the semis started, trying to involve every other snooker personality he can.
Tbf this match needs them.
>steve davis in charge of mid session interval music
>kid in a Man Utd shirt
Ronnie "hide your bulge" O'Sullivan
That jimmy white 18-17 loss to hendry. Brutal.
>>67219055
Lapland. Southern Finland is shit.
>>67218450
tbf, last time Ding got this far (semi's) he got Trumped, when the Trump train was potting everything from everywhere and actually been consistent - till the final.
Cant see Selby doing that with just torture, at least last time he won he had both break building and torture tactics going for him.
>has Selby to win outright 9/1.
>>67218890
here's 2 snooker players 'avin a larf on the bucket table
https://youtu.be/rF5V05Vh4og?t=5m14s
>>67219482
I imagine overall pool must seem like a piece of piss if you're a professional snooker player.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Just Fu my shit up
>>67219528
They still lose to pro pool players often enough though.
>>67218693
I've been in many pubs across the UK and not one of them had a snooker table.
Snooker simply isn't a suitable game for a pub. It requires a huge table and lots of equipment which is why I've only ever been able to play in designated snooker clubs.
>>67219671
a lil lass could win a game of pool if you pot the black.
anyone can beat anyone if the balls are on.
pro pool player would struggle to win a frame against a top 16 snooker player.
>>67219777
>pro pool player would struggle to win a frame against a top 16 snooker player.
hell, they'd find it difficult even potting with position, although Efren claimed he's won a few frames against Ronnie before.
>>67219721
been telling that to a lot of people that suddenly got interested in snooker in 2013 around here, they go see the snooker table, get overwhelmed by the reds and start making 147 jokes
>>67219671
I can imagine. Though easier for snooker players to transfer their skills to pool than vice versa I suspect.
>>67219721
>I've been in many pubs across the UK and not one of them had a snooker table.
Always easier just to get in a pool table or two. Save on space and you can charge people to use it.
>>67219858
god bless our tax code for working men/social club/sport clubs. Otherwise they'd be no snooker tables around here. Got around 8 tables within a 5 mile radius here.
>>67219905
>being poor
we had two at college
>>67219721
Snooker clubs are often pretty much a pub atmosphere though
>>67219952
More or less, though it can depend on the club and if the tables are in the same area/room as the bar.
bbc stream down or just me
>>67220015
Same here
>>67219952
True, can get fucking annoying sometimes when the pool league is on and they just fucking screaming at the top of their lungs like guys please kill yourselves.
>>67220015
try refresh the page, happens to me sometimes.
There is an actual live snooker world championship semi-final happening right now. BBC have decided to turn off their live coverage and show their presenters dicking around with cue tips, and then show highlights of their programme from several hours ago.
desu wew lad ayy lmao
>showing highlights whilst the game is going on still
>not even live on red button
WHY DO THEY DO THIS EVERY FUCKING TIME
REEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>67220047
Good moment for lunch then.
>>67220015
>paused for 1 sec once.
>>67220047
>>67220063
This is why Eurosport has a 10 year exclusive* contact for all European tournaments.
*Beebs can still broadcast the 4 UK-based ones
Also you can just watch it online without any of this bullshit at anytime.
They don't even indicate whether the coverage on BBC One is live or not.
>hurr durr it doesn't matter we have the live coverage on our website
but then how can I watch the snooker and shitpost at the same time
question to non brits: do you guys play snooker?
Maybe the German Eurosport coverage isn't that bad, after all.
rerack
>>67220184
Never seen a table in my life.
choke mark, choke
Selby is finished
>>67220131
Its fucking annoying because they announced the current score on sportsday before, there is no suspense
>>67220184
I have a ritual with a few guys that moved away. If we meet up, it's snooker, scotch and cigars. We all really suck though.
>>67220184
No. There are lots of pool tables in my city, but snooker tables are hard to find. Also, I've just gotten into snooker, so I haven't had the time to search.
I'll probably move to another city in the summer, and I know of a snooker club there.
>spent every day after school growing up at my rich relative's house
>he had a full-size proper table setup at home

They're only there because the house edge on Blackjack is tiny so they need another way of making guaranteed profit.

>>67220871
Now, when there's an interval, they can just show the frame they haven't shown yet and there won't be any interruptions to the snooker fun.
the fucking STATE of the sausage knight
>yellow ball betraying yellow man
>marco poo
>>67221027
Maybe he owns the Crucible? That's why he doesn't care about dress codes, and never has to be at work. Perhaps when they have plays on and stuff at the Crucible, he sits in the same seat, watching Othello in a 1998 Port Vale away kit.
