I don't fucking know the rules on how to create a thread like this so anything snooker-related goes.Did you all enjoy this world championship in any way?
>>140664446>Did you all enjoy this world championship in any way?Good morning. Yes, I did enjoy this year's world championship, more so than last year's in fact. Whether that was anything to do with the quality of the tournament is another matter. I hope it doesn't usher in an era of sub-deano snooker, like Luke Humphries dominating darts at the moment.
Apparently Mr. Rob had a good 'un last night.
anyone else noticed Kyren's younger son going to Jak to shake his hand? i'm just rewatching it, it's before Hazels interviews, good fella
Alri, hope everyone is gearing up for the REAL main event of the snooker season starting tomorrow>>140664546>I hope it doesn't usher in an era of sub-deano snooker, like Luke Humphries dominating darts at the moment.Not like this, bros..>>140664650The most horrifying part about the snooker season ending is, without a doubt, footage of Mr Rob dancing at the afterparty

What a strange feeling. I just remembered that at one point either today or yesterday evening, at home or at work, I thought about doing something I considered important "before I forget".I can't recall what it was and whether I did it or not.>>140664446>>140664546>Did you all enjoy this world championship in any way?In a lot of ways, in fact. Last year we had Selby until the very end. This time we lost all are boys (the arest of are boys at least) earlier, but the result is much better.>>140664939No, but that's very nice indeed.>>140665793I checked on Youtube, and there are only two livestreams from cameras in some clubs, showing random dudes practising.
We did it Kyrenbros.
>>140667046>cameras in some clubs, showing random dudes practising.In a way, this could be like the idea to have one average person in every Olympic event to illustrate how good the athletes really are. I am almost exactly average at cue sports; I beat people who know nothing about pool approximately 50% of the time, and I very rarely beat anyone good. I have never won a frame of snooker in my life, but I have only played an actual opponent once or twice. I posted yesterday about going to play, and I think it would be very interesting for there to have been a good player to compare me to. I watched a bunch of introductory coaching videos on YouTube before I went, and I made an excellent break-off shot as well as four consecutive pots when I started, but it still took about 40 minutes to clear the table, which is about as long as I take every time. If my table was in the background while some low-tier pros were in the foreground, it could have been very educational.
>>140667210Watching a bit of the Viriginia Open the other day actually felt a bit like this. I came away with the opinion that the standard of this year's World Championship was pretty good, actually.
Seethechads, it's time for some Mihail kino

>>140669334Yes, at final interviews along with Reanna. Every time I switched to the snooker, Koiren would miss a ball, so I was seeing it on and off not to jinx. But they made so many errors. And Koiren lost a lot of frames. It almost was like another Barry Hawkins

WEDNESDAY - World Seniors begins at last!>12:00 (bo5)James Wattana (RIP) v Rpdmey Goggins>Followed byKen Doherty v Tyson Crinis>19:00Tony Knowles v Stuart Watson>Followed byIgor Figueiredo v Tessa Davidson
>>140674534This is the most prestigious seniors line-up ever, lmao. Any reason why Jimmy and Hendry aren't in?>Rpdmey GogginsAhh yes, the man with the 45 ast.
>>140674981Jimmy plays on ThursdayI assume Hendry isn't playing to fully focus on his comeback
>>140674534>Igor FigueiredoAlready on the seniors? When does Kebab Williams, Riggins and Ronhay join him?
Why does snooker have a summer break? It makes no sense.
>>140677303Too many flies.
>>140677615
>>140677303The drunken crowds gathering to watch it on the big screen would just be too much trouble, better to have it on in the winter when people tend to stay indoors more.
>>140677303If you’ll allow me to shitpost for a moment, it’s actually because snooker players are the laziest fucking bastards in the sporting world. I’ll concede both that even matches on the shorter end of the spectrum are longer than many other sports’ matches, and that if you do well in a tournament then you’ll be playing 4 or 5 matches in a week with not much time before the next tournament. But that’s no excuse for the 95% of the tour that are playing actual, competitive matches for a few hours every two weeks at most. I hear some of these lower ranked players say they’re looking forward to putting their cue down over the summer, and I think “you’ve barely picked it up all season anyway you indolent sod”. If WST want to up standard across the board in the bigger tournaments, then they really should have a challenge-type tour with earning opportunities happening almost every week of the year for players that want to play in them. They should be looking to keep the majority of the tour match- and competition-sharp almost all year round. It’s just not gonna happen when every other tournament is an invitational or made up of the top x number of players from the one-year list. If you consider that the qualifiers for the Home Nations tournaments wipe out nearly 64 players, that means half the tour (approximately the same half every time) are playing one competitive match each month on average. For the other 353 days of the year, they’re doing fuck all. You might think this is a gross exaggeration, but it’s not far off. Ross Muir, for example, played 25 matches last season. 3 of those were in the Championship League, and in another he potted only 1 red and then lost the match (Shppt Put). About two decent matches a month on average then. I guarantee that the rankings would sort out the talented hard-workers from the lazy fucking chaff if there were opportunities to play multiple, competitive matches with prize money on the line every week.

>>140798750A week has passed.
>>140793465I haven't watched it for years, I'm afraid. But it depends where in the series you're watching; it's easy to romp the first round (I know I lost, but when you're at home you get to answer the other team's bonus questions too, and there's no buzzer, so that inflates your score) but by the semi-finals and the final, the questions are much harder and you should be proud if you only get a handful right. People who say they don't know a single answer are either really bad at quizzes, or they stop watching after two minutes and miss the ones that most people would know.
