If I pot one ball in a game, I think fair play I'm doing well. I tend to be playing at my absolute best if I post two balls a game. And that's probably make 4-6 fouls a game. I'm comically bad, and excel at missing the easiest shots possible. People think I'm doing it on purpose.

I hate to sound defeatist, but if I can't play pool on a small table, what am I going to be able to do on a real snooker table?


to be honest mate, if your not that great at pool you dont stand a chance at snooker. Im pretty clinical at pool and rarely miss (unless im showboating or not caring) but im not that great at snooker, im a million miles away from pro level but i can knock a good few balls in when i get a chance, play decent safety and feel confident playing most shots.

PS - Can we arrange a money game at pool sometime :idea:

If you are ever in Bristol ........................we could play a best of 35 rack match. That would provide a fair result. :idea: :santa: :idea: :santa:

I charge you a lot as well :idea: :santa: :idea: :santa:

I think Witz is likely to be a very good player. My supreme prince is 6x3, and there is actually a big difference in 6x3 vs 7x4.

Most peeps I whip easy. I beat Craig the other weekend after the WhiteLighting 10-3. :wave:

I did twitch on a few though. :scared:

I'm rubbish. At everything. <laugh> I tend to sit around, drink beer, moan and watch snooker. That's pretty much all I know how to do.

Hi,

Giving life to an old post. According to me playing pool is sufficient to be a fan or addict of this game. No matter if you are playing with your mates or in a club with beer in your hands and shouting loudly or playing in a competition. A play is a play. So I am kinda different on that.

I think pool is pretty mindless and boring..i dont tend to play very often as it can take away from your snooker, so leave the pool table aside.
