Iā€™ll put one to you, are the pockets ā€˜like fucking bucketsā€™ today? As in the last 10 - 15 years, compared to before.

I know a lad on premium charge betfair that was a big and successful punter on snooker among other things that insists this is true and its made things hard to predict.

With the premium on live sport, I dont know why they got in with the Hearns and Matchroom.

Major renaissance incoming. Possibly involving women as well, its a touch game.

Would not have a clue, to be honest. I like snooker and I particularly admire ROā€™S. But my knowledge is minimal.

Hopefully.

I donā€™t mind Judd but Ronnie deserves to have at least as many titles as Hendry.

If he wins this heā€™s definitely the GOAT.

Pockets are no different. The conditions are much better though. Finer cloths make it easier to break build. There are also less kicks due to new chalk.

The table at home in Kilmallock was an antique. Probably a billiards table originally. The pockets in the Vic inside in town were definitely easier.

Tis no wonder yourself and Lord Didsbury get on so well

Billiards is a great game. I wouldnā€™t expect a wattle and daub merchant like yourself to know much about it.

The night Alex Higgins beat Hendry there was unreal.

The great Clive Everton played it I believe.
