I could sit here all night long just watching Mark Williams playing any cue sport.
A legend, an entertainer and a gentleman.
I'd watch him play with a brush handle , he'd probably still be as good
I would watch him play beach volleyball ball in a pair of skimpy shorts! 😂😂😮😮
follow me and you can lol
@@clintwalker3127 not out our channel that
His cue action is immaculate, especially when you compare it to the other players cueing, snooker players discipline really is on another level
Snooker players can just adapt their game perfectly for Pool. It must be easy for them really
One of my favourite snooker players.. what a treat this is
Mark is one of the best if not the best single pot maker in snooker, now apply that to a 6/4 table? DOMINATION!
Lol except he got dominated in 2 out of 3 matches
Lol except it’s not 6 by 4
I remember he played in the world 9 ball championships one year when it was held in Cardiff - bucket pockets etc - if I remember correctly he lost all 7 group games. There's a lot more to pool besides just potting balls!
What does single ball potter mean? I know you're just stating what you've been told but what does it mean? Shots that aren't plants?
@@da_great_mogul I think it just means that if you gave him a stand-alone difficult pot, he would successfully make that pot more than any other player. They say ‘single ball’ because in snooker, you’re looking to string many pots together to form a break (and I guess in pool too to make a clearance) - but they’re just talking about a single shot. As such, it’s a weapon he can use to get himself out of trouble - rather than having to play a safety shot, he can often make a difficult pot to get himself out of trouble.
That English 8 ball table must feel like a child’s toy every time he steps into it!
Me and my friend used to play a lot of snooker and pool back in the day, whenever we finished with snooker and move on to the pool table it felt exactly like that. We did make the mistake a couple of times while we waited for a snooker table to free, to play pool and then move to the snooker table.
@@awesomnality we don’t have any snooker tables left in my neck of the woods, but I def even get shell shocked going from the 9 foot tables to the 7 foot ones!
One of sports great characters,...and a seriously good pool player,.......and a legend of snooker,...love the unpredictable style of his play, and such a wonderful Potter,......I wish him happy St David's 🏴 day
I love watching him. Best potter in the world. If you watch all his frames here he utilises the pockets well & don’t do much with the white ball. Couple times he could’ve made his work easier but trusted his ability 👏🏼
Surely the logic has to be best potter = most succesful so hes not even top 10. No point having the best single ball average. Still great mind
@@rtorbs lack of 8 ball experience. The man didn’t even know he won the game when he played a golden Duck 😂 look at Tom Ford, when he first come onto the circuit in 2016 he wasn’t amazing. Seems to be doing well on comps etc now though & Mark Williams is 10x the player he is.
@@bradleaoreilly6865 Yeah he's a top tier snooker player so of course the transition is going to be easier. It's like comparing threading a needle to throwing a needle in a volcano in re of the pockets
@@rtorbs lol in terms of talent Williams is unmatched. After he won all triple crown plus lg cup in one season he downed tools. He’s a sensation.
Its great to see He had a lot of fun to Play.
Awesome first game. Love the reaction from some of tbe breaks offs including potting the black at the start to take the frame.
Just found this amazing channel thank you!
Mark is such a nice humble and funny guy and to think he was born 5 milles from me , he is so talented and has the perfect temperament he never looses his cool and makes snooker/pool look easy and makes me proud to be welsh
Best way to be, we should all try to be that and not take things so seriously
need to see more of this! and other professional snooker players
Brilliant, well done Mark.
I never get tired of watching mark
It's refreshing to see the snooker pro's approach to pool!
Cheers!
Him playing the simplest sides makes the pool commentators shocked lol
yeah their commentary changes based on who the player is
It wasn't the simplest of side as he also used knuckle to get so high up the table off a relatively straight ball to middle.
A great snooker player will always give a great pool player a game. A great pool player would stand no chance against a great snooker player.
You snooker players are some real fucking snobs 😂
accurate.
What did happen when judd meet a Pro PoolPlayer was it 0 he Got against jayson shaw??😅
@@michaelnb81 In snooker he meant
@@michaelnb81 irrelevant he won his first 2 matches with ease, and 9 ball completely different from this and snooker.
Wow what a potting machine Mark is. Snooker genius 👏 and now looks like a pool genius in the making
Ya gotta love Mark.. Bloody nice bloke..
Well done Mark 👍
This could be a very interesting season now 🎉
Awesome Game Playing
love this
BEST OF THE YEAR
Awesome Content
Best of 7 just isn't enough frames if someone can just step up and win it without the other player getting a shot tbh, but incredible skills on display here, and Mark is an incredible player, my favourite!
Coming from snooker that table is so small it looks like a toy 🤣 you can tell by the way Williams sits down he feels like a giant, what a quick satisfaction he can get in this game.
He lost all the group stage games in the pool championship😂😂😂😂😂all
@@putin4574 that's funny. But it is a different game.
@putin lf any of the top snooker players took up pool full-time they would win easily. Snooker margins are much smaller and techniques are superior.
@@Fontsman True. Following Steve Davis' performance in the first Mosconi Cups most of the top 9 Ball pool players said that he would clean up if he played the game seriously. Instead he chose to stick with snooker despite not winning a trophy for several years rather than a pool hero.
Easy money
Wp mark. 👏👏👏
Every pot is going in the dead centre of the pocket! Likely the best potter on the planet.
After Ronnie.
@@jm8219 I have to disagree with that.
@@jm8219 Ronnie is the best around no doubt, because he's got all aspects of his game to 95% plus. His biggest strength is his cueball control imo. But there are others that are maybe stronger in individual skills. Lots have more cue power than him, maybe Murphy better with the rest, Trump/Robertson/Williams at least equal single ball potters, a few have really strong safety play etc. Ironically, considering his past, these days Ronnie's temperament is a big plus.
@@bacontroutwe are talking about single shot potting! Mark is the best single shot potter out there!
I'd probably pick Neil Robertson but ay.
Wish I could play like that down the pub 🙂
Can someone explain to me how this is different from eightball on a bar box sized table beyond the short timer.
Just curious...watched all of of it and many other vids over the years but I can't really tell if there is any beyond the timer and that the eightball (or equivalent here) can be made on break for win
He's pretty good, this guy! He should try snooker.
What a douche
Ive a good friend who was always picking up tickets to snooker tournaments and exhibitions up and down the uk. I was always happy to see mark on the roster as it meant the off table time was equally as interesting and he knows how to work a crowd.
Being stateside and a snooker to pool convert myself im so happy to see mark on the table as itll be interesting to see how his style and technique will mel and interchange with the snooker brain being pre programmed.
BEST OF THE DAY
And the best of today 😉
these tables are ultra fine cloths makes potting quite easy in comparison to your standard pool table in a pub.
Welcome back Welcome
Im a left hander too. We think differently and take more risks on the table
ONCE WILLIAMS IS ALWAYS WILLIAMS
Having played both I think that this game is much easier than snooker
Looks good this Mark lad, should take up cue sports professionally
Beginner's luck
Pool's a kids game, this amatuer would probably struggle to pot a ball in a real sport like snooker
He is a snooker player has been for a while look him up
He should definitely try snooker next. I actually think he might do well
@@silverpower3612 wooosh
What's the size of these tables?
As somebody used to watching snooker, the table looks so stupidly small XD
I observed that snooker players do not 'practice' the stroke before the shot. Even when they get down for the shot, they usually strike right away.
Pool players will typically repeat the stroke movement 3 or 4 times before getting into position and once they are down, they will simulate the stroke another 3 times before hitting the cue ball.
Why is that so?
Sorry if this sounds like a silly question.
Snooker you have to pot a lot of balls to win a frame, so snooker becomes more rythmic when break building. Pool can be more robotic when concentrating on 8 pots
The real answer is once a snooker player is set, they don't want to keep repeating the stroke and possibly risk knocking their cue action off direction. There's much less room for error in snooker because of table size, small pockets etc. So if you keep practicing your stroke, you might keep edging your cue a few millimeters off where you intend to hit the ball and it can make a huge difference in snooker. Its much better to set yourself, lock yourself into exactly where you wanna strike the ball and then do it. Although some snooker players do actually stroke a few times before hitting, but it's more for composure at times rather than rush
This table looks very small, do they have different sizes for different formats of pool?
It must seem so easy for the pro snooker players 😊
I marvel that after playing pool he can then go back to snooker and win a tournament. When I go on a snooker table after playing pool for a while I find the snooker table seems twice as big as it used to.
This is like watching the winner of the tour de France riding a bike with stabilisers around the block.
Come on you wolves!!!
How many liters of alcohol does Mark consume per day? 3??
The table looks like it only reaches Mark's knees, how friggin tall is he? 9 ft?
boy gorau 😎
New kid in town
he’s like a cheat code
The way I see snooker is there is a playoff between technique and feel for the game. The more a top player focuses on technique, he loses a little with the feel. If he focuses on the feel the technique goes in places.
Williams and Selby are more about the feel and Robertson and Judd are examples on technique. Those who have a great feel transition into pool way better. It doesn't surprise me Selby is great at pool. It also doesn't surprise Williams at his age finds it easy to transition.
Still Williams is kinda has his snooker brain on while playing pool.
He snookered people on a pool table lmao
As caçapa da mês são do tamanha de uma bacia !
Snooker 10 second shot clock if assuming you don't miss could you beat the G0ats 147 time?
Sweet tiny table.
When snooker players play pool is interesting. The pool table is the snooker players table now
Been watching Mark for 30 years, it's cool you all get to enjoy him on the other side of the pond now too!
This is British pool mate.
Playing pool to mark is very easy. But u gonna keep your concentration
Why are 8 ball pool tables so small?
This is 8ft or 9ft? Thanks for answer ;)
7x4ft
what are the rules?
What size is that table? It look maybe 6 or 7 by 3 or 3.5? Hard to tell on TV. Even an 8x4 would seem small to Mark I'd imagine though, not so much room to do the real magic with that white.
7x4 i think
@@TicTac2 -- Oh, thought all billiards tables were 2X x X, so 8x4, 10x5, 12x6, etc... I have a 7x3.5 I play 10 reds on, got it from a bar that was shutting down.
6×4
Destroying it - 🙂
This guy could be a champion
should try a proper game 9 ball
What are these pooltables??? Pooltables with training wheels?? I never saw center pockets with the jaws so wide open…
NoN pool players commentary thou 😂😂😂😂
Imagine playing on a 4 meters long table whole your life and then coming here to about a half of that 😅A child's play hahaha
It seems like cheating 😂
Grannied
Does he use his snooker cue?
Does it matter if he is? Isn't he allowed to use a Snooker cue for playing Pool? As long he's getting results with it, I don't see the problem
@@planetx1595 I don't see a problem either! - But I think pool players tend to use a heavier cue - especially for break off?
@@adrianwright8685 That I don't know, again, it shouldn't matter. Whatever suits the player, in my honest opinion
Mark played years ago at WK 9 ball pool , so no debut for sure
球檯感覺小了一點🤔
i could do this 😜
The pockets are way bigger than snooker for a start
The pockets in this sport are the size of aircrafthangars
What does single ball potter mean? I know you're just stating what you've been told but what does it mean? Shots that aren't plants?
Meaning hes great at potting but not the best at position. So hes the best at potting a single ball but not the best at potting them one after the other.
@@thebenevolentsun6575 that doesn't deserve a label if he only scores 1 point from it surely?
@@da_great_mogul It doesn't mean he isn't a great break builder - he's 3 times world champ.
@@agt155 I didn't say he wasn't. Lol. Someone said single ball potters were only good at potting one, hard ball and nothing else after it.
On these tiny tables Williams snooker technique will make most shots easy.
Based on International Pool Rules if you had to rank the 5 Marks From Strongest To Weakest how would you rank them
Mark Alan
Mark Farnsworth
Mark Boyle
Mark Selby
Mark Williams
He'd probably be a good snooker player.
Must be intimidating for the pool players. Like dropping Frankel into a 0-60 handicap horse race
cole bedford shocked at how he missed the pot. he rushed his feathers and played the shot with too much pace
Steve skinner from abergavenny would smash him
Easy to make fun of pool but you have far less margin for error. Racks can be won in under a minute from one error and you have far less table to play with, so you have to be more careful not to run out of position. And also, because the pack is spread you cannot hold in one area to win the game. There is massive pressure on every shot. Absolutely snooker is a more difficult and accurate sport, but pool is harder to win because a player can make wins off the break also. Intense game at competitive level
Wait if that was every finish, I'm guessing he got his ass handed to him in the final two matches there? E.g. he only got 1 frame against Cole?
If I’d just paid a pound to play at the local pub and got beaten that quick I’d be bit annoyed.
Not bad for a beginner
Cue ball smaller than the others, American pool tables are the way to go
A Snooker player will always take to pool like a duck to water
Yeah but could this guy play a real game like snooker?
Does he have to go threw same qualifications process as most the others!?! 🤔🧐always wonder about these things was his placed earned by qualifying 🤔😂
Snooker world champion is really good at pool..... what next? Lewis Hamilton parallel parks....
Joking aside, he seems a top notch fella
I play in a charity pool league in Kent, I have to say, my dream of all dreams is to use one of those beautiful grey tables you got there at the centre.
The balls, cloth everything is just perfect. Outstanding playing conditions for the pros.
Ultimate Pool... If you hear this please do a giveaway open to all who share or promote the page!! The prize? One of those fancy pool tables!
We have one at our club really are smart
@@eric4389 consider yourself a blessed man! If I were to own one at my house - I probably wouldn't leave my house...
You can order pool tables through us
@@robbiedolan3791 we have great snooker facilities but every pool table round my area (canterbury) is just shoddy tables from the early 2000's its like playing on a 3G football pitch, balls react like lead everywhere you go... It sucks because Im really getting into me pool these last few years but there is no decent places near me to play.
Might have to bite the bullet and buy a table from Ultimate Pool
Jeez this commentator!! There's not a match, where he doesn't say "what a fantastic shot", for a shot that is so simple for a pro pool player.. example 01:39 .. nothing whatsoever difficult about that...
Mark Williams is used to playing position on a ball off of 3 or 4 cushions, in and out of baulk, avoiding traffic,to finish inch perfect on a ball.. I hardly think a simple top and side shot off the rail is hardly fantastic!!
cos it's Mark williams. an unknown player made a finish with 2 combo shots the other week and the comms barely reacted
put that table be any smaller
I've been playing pools quite a bit at our university and I notice being watched by the cleaners some made passes or would come over by the table pretending to hoover. Female students would sometime stare when I had my back to them checking my arse while I'm taking a shot, sometime raising their phone taking pictures.
For snooker players pool is so easy dont care what anyone says
