Snooker is sometimes a strange game. For reasons, no one can understand the run of the ball just go's against you no matter who you are. Plus I have always believed that best of 5 or 7 and even 9 is harder than a playoff game. Congrats to Ronnie for hanging in there for the win.
The greatest players are also the greatest improvisers. Personally, I am more impressed and entertained by a player like Ronnie working a win out of a run of trouble, than I am by an ideally played 147.
But I like Tatiana’s decision to give Ricky ball in hand anyway. Because Ronnie knows about that rule and kept the white on the table anyway. It really is a silly rule that should be changed
Watch the 2008 World Champs Semi Final O'Sullivan v Hendry, check out how well Ronnie plays and how many frames in a row he wins. I don't wanna tell you and spoil it
The referee incorrectly picked up the ball in frame one when Ronnie touched it! What now? The ball didn’t leave the bed of the table. Ball in hand was given incorrectly.
@@b3rliner624 Had he not interfered with the table, it would have fell in. I guess by your logic, these champions should just slap balls around on the table and take the foul instead of giving ball in hand? Lmao. Ronnie was being a little childish and let Ricky take ball in hand.
@@sethh8892 well I bet you’re wrong. There was a similar instance a few years ago and I think it was Jan Verhaas back then that ruled a foul for the opponent that had picked up the ball that (I think it was Ronnie) blocked from falling in the pocket by putting his fist in. The opponent picked it up and put it in the D and that was a foul because ‚the ball never left the bed of the table‘ So the referee did wrong by picking up the ball and letting the opponent play from the D here. There needs to be a rule put in place and the player that causes such a situation should lose the frame. There is a video on TH-cam btw
@@b3rliner624 Exactly. There isnt a rule directly stating this. Its just like a similar scenario: This guy slammed a ball, it jumped off the table, hit him in the chest and fell in the pocket. The ball made it in the pocket and he didnt intentionally hit the ball in, so how do you reff that? If the rule book had EVERY possible scenario it would be too big.
Ronnie no matter how good you are, you still have to practice to maintain that shape! Go practice on the tables and don't disappoint us next time, your next match is against trump.
What the hell. Cannot this commenter count ? 1. John Higgins broke off 2. Miss 3. Miss and warning 4. Miss and end of frame That is four shots. And "Come on Roony" could set an actual unbeatable record with a total of zero shots taken by conceding the frame without him taking his break-off shot. "OH well, Our little dear is temperamental today."
The promo for "pool" is pretty lame lol. Drama, drama, it's all about drama on all shows, everywhere these days! As far as the balls goes, the black spotted cue ball is no different than the red spotted so.....why? Oh yeah, patents....and the 9 ball just looks silly. Of course, *some* will think "ohhhh it's so different now".
If you turn the sound to nothing and just watch then the meditative aspect of the game heightens your senses. The incessant jaber by the eager beavers trying to be the in snooker announcer is gone leaving the shots and players calculating the only important thing to see.
Am I missing a rule where the ref can pick the white up when it never went in the pocket ? It was still on the table. Also very D grade performance from both sides but defo wasn’t Ronnies day although had some beautiful long pots.
@@MrCanuck147 Technically the cue ball never left the table and the ref shouldn’t have picked it up. Although it was clearly going straight to the pocket, it never actually did because Ronnie pushed it with his cue first. Check out the match between Selby and Dott in 2009 where a similar incident happened. See what the ref did th-cam.com/video/y1sDiLapr0g/w-d-xo.html
@@seanharrison5915 It’s a controversial situation indeed, but I think the rules have been well established. If they are applied based on what actually happens on the table not what is expected to happen, there would be no more doubt.
Sounds like American professional sports where even a mediocre team can make the playoffs. Of course it's about added revenue from television and advertising that prompts this action. We went through this kind of thing in the 90's when even the worst players in a league got the same trophy as the hard working winners. Raised a bunch of kids to believe failure didn't matter at all so why work for a goal. That's not saying that Ron is a failure but, even the best aren't the best all the time.
Personally, he’s isn’t such a “peoples “ person , as in appreciating, his much beloved fans , and I’m speaking from personal experience.. which I’m sorry to say . ..Comparing him to my 80/90’s heroes .. Alex Higgins x John Virgo x Jimmy White x Dennis Taylor x Steve Davi’s , Cliff Thorbourne Tbh , I could go on .. they were such gentleman and Characters in their own way . This player R.O . Needs to step back … We are all ppl mate ! Just coming from a mom !!
Ronnie is a genius! Yes, Hendry is the best player in history on paper with 7 world championships but nobody in the history of snooker has been able to keep playing at this high level for 30 years straight like Ronnie..including a 5 year lay-off that is and then coming back and winning his 6th world title, he is unique! And you cannot do that unless you are a genius. But like all geniuses he is a little bit off, maybe more than a little bit. Its understandable.Even Einstein was gone with the wind in his late part of his life
@@Batwal99onUtube Alex Higgins , as you stated , and totally agree , wasn’t a gentleman, in many ways …However, Alex , NEVER forgot where he came from , and was always so loving towards his fans , and a Brilliant, Snooker player ❤️.. something Ronnie O’Sullivan , now at this stage of his career , in 2022 , should take note of .. !!!!! Yes , a BRILLIANT player … BUT… When ppl pay to QUITE SOME amount of money to see their idol , you would think they would at least , gain a hi , or a smile from him !!
Watching this in 2023. Happy to see in newer events that they have live audiences again and great to see Ronnie still making 147s.
Ronnie played very bad today. He was very lucky that didn’t lose the the 3rd set. But he did very well on the last set. 👍🏻❤️
@behzad_bhri 😂🤣
snooker is getting a whole lot better. never before have i fancied the ref.....
accepting you no longer have what you used to..is a very tough thing....everyone goes through it
Ronnie still has it... when he gets in enough table time.
He's not going to enough events.
This is a game to watch with the sound down
I'd like to know what the verbal exchange was at the very end of the video. Walden was looking a bit aggressive with his cue.
I was thinking the same.
Também fiquei intrigado
Ronnie farted and the smell was awful. ✌️
Ronnie now has 1,133 centuries and counting
the official is smokin
Ricky looks angry at the end of this clip. Was he angry?
I wish the ref's mic level was audible!
ดีที่ได้ชม
Cool,calm and relaxed and comfortable than he shows his masterclass 😇
P
Ronnie is the come back king!
Pressure cooker
Dam it.
Good 👍 Ronnie 👍👍
One thing I have noticed about Ronnie , he's always well turned out
So what happened to the last frame for fs
I like Dominic dale as a commentator. Very forgiving to the players.
As I am just learning the game, what is the box that the judge caring?
"WHATS IN THE BOX?!"
Judge controls the score machine remotely with that.
The difference in volume on the narrator’s mics woke everyone up here lol
Amazing how Ronnie still managed to win, being in such a bad shape. We are still getting a glimpse of his great talent, but like 10%.
10%??? He just became world champion. I'd argue he's the most well rounded he's ever been.
In the wsc he gave his best
Lol
Sally finally played as only he knows, an excellent finish
what were the words going on between them at the end as they were putting the gear away ???
Is this live?
為什麼這場只打五局啊？
Excellent comeback

12:16 cue ball did never leave the table, so it should not have been a "ball in hand".

Sullivan 👑
Dale needs to increase his mike volume. Edit: Looks like he has now. He sounded like a little mouse before 😃
With a complementary decrease in the volume of Yates's mike, please
Sorry just asking. 12:15, is it foul? Its not fluke btw.
Ронни гений!
Ну Вэлден тоже крутой, ему-бы авантюризм Вильямса , они сравнялись-бы уровнями с Ронни.
В целом, отличные "противники" игра просто фееричная....
The ball never left the bed of the table in frame 1 when it was going towards the pocket, how am i the only one to pick up on that?
Ronnie pushed it with his cue
Ronnie once went 556 points to zero against Walden a record in snooker
Watch the 2008 World Champs Semi Final O'Sullivan v Hendry, check out how well Ronnie plays and how many frames in a row he wins. I don't wanna tell you and spoil it
We know mate. The commentators told us.
the referre is a hot woman
I though I was the only one who thinks that...she really has something about her doesn't she.
Referre name???
With ads for 9 ball that are over a minute long with no way to skip … make this video . Not worth watching…
Referee very pretty
Gostaria muito de ver o sullivan jogando com Efrem.....😀😀😀
O Pelé da sinuca
The referee incorrectly picked up the ball in frame one when Ronnie touched it! What now? The ball didn’t leave the bed of the table. Ball in hand was given incorrectly.
he gave it up because he knew it was going in. everyone knew. ball in hand was given for that reason
@@sethh8892 it’s not correct - nevertheless

Is ronnie commentating?
the average number of snocker players increases his game, yes, but ronny Sullivan never decreases his game
😂😂😂 Increases , decreases 😂😂😂 what do you want to say😅
55:40 - Рони так смотрит на зелёный биток, какбудто хочет спросить - зачем он (шарик)так обманул ожидания.... всё складывалось так хорошо!

This was Ronnies c game
It was Ricky's D game
Соперник Рони может выиграть ,если захочет Рони.!

Was wondering the same thing. The cue ball never left the table until the ref picked it up.
Ronnie pushed it with his cue, it was going straight in the pocket. He conceded a scratch.

@@thitiwat.r interesting so we still don’t rly have a settled rule on this that every ref is consistently using, that needs to be sorted

Ronnie nice player profesional
Can't stand the sound of Phil Yates inane blather.
Christ, Phil Yates spouts relentless bollocks ... stats and stats and bollocks. Had to mute it. Sorry Dominic it wasn’t your fault

Walden choked...so many chances in 3rd frame to finish and could not do it . Not surprised .
