Hey break from life, Jason from Denver Colorado here. Just wanted to let you know that your videos have helped me immensely with my billiards game and just a few days ago won me a tournament for a thousand dollars. Before I found you all I was doing was poking a ball with a stick and wishful thinking potted it sometimes. Thanks mate!
That’s great, hope you’ve got something sensible planned for your winnings
@@Breakfromlife car parts, lol.
your videos helped me win lots of matches and made me a much better player. Tomer from kfar saba, Israel
Great video as always! Greetings from the himalayan nation, Nepal!
Thanks, the tip on aiming for the back corner of the pocket is really helpful for me. I’ve always aimed dead centre and tend to rattle these shots with any pace put on them. Now I know better! Great videos, your a good player, keep em coming!
Your videos are brilliant. You got more talent in your little finger than I have in my whole body but I still enjoy watching them and then messing it up completely at my local snooker club. Keep doing what you do mate. It's much appreciated 👍👍👍
Hey mate. Great videos. My name is Connor and I live in Beijing, China. Have always struggled with these shots, your video was much-needed.
Is it difficult to get TH-cam in China?
Great video to show how to pot balls from the cushion. Always had problem potting balls along the cushion. Will practice more. Thanks for the lesson! Greetings from Malaysia.
I am one of your biggest fans because your snooker lessons really work and has made me a better snooker player! Please mention me. I am Laurence Corray from Singapore!

Thank you look forward to trying this. I tried your laser idea today ( as it arrived in the mail ) hmmm can't say had to much success works good for straight in or slight angle not to good for others. I watched your other videos you recommended over a few times to use in conjunction with laser still no improvement. Would you mind doing a more in-depth version when time permits please.
The big problem with it is you have to get the shot lined up right. I think the problem your having and why it works on straight shot is to do with what makes lining a shot up difficult. If it’s at an angle and you are aiming straight in line with the pocket (I’m guessing everything misses too straight) it won’t be the correct angle. I think this video th-cam.com/video/4LjtT57cK6w/w-d-xo.html Explains what you need to do. If you point the laser to where I say you need to aim your cue in the video.
And you ignore me going off on one a bit
@@Breakfromlife Thx I'll give that ago
When a ball isn't tight on the rail, maybe a ball or so off the rail, I'm tending to cushion first (Like the shot place @7:48ish) so that the cue ball hits the object ball on the edge closest to the rail, although it is a little more difficult than cutting on the edge away from the rail the cue ball it will move the cue ball out into the table.
It’s something worth thinking about but it can be tricky
slightly late to the party but great video , greetings from kasserine , tunisia

Watching you from a long time didnt realise i didnt subscribe! Ayush from inida
strange you talk about using side I have been using the opposite side you use to make the cue ball spin when it contacts the object ball giving the effect of adding a tiny bit of spin on the object ball that helps the object ball drop in the pocket. the effect of this helps the object ball keep off the cushion a very tiny amount have you played with this idea?
Nice job ,sir
Could you please tell while applying spin on the cue ball should we move bridge in the line of the shot or not?
To me this are easier than straight ones and a important question on most days i win my first 10 to 15 games than i start losing really badly like i miss the shots that i could have made with both eyes closed what do i di to get better

I totally lost track of what he was talking about halfway through cause I kept looking around the room. I wonder what's in those boxes?. Woolly caps maybe? : D
No I was letting someone store the books he was selling in there a few years ago. They were selling at quite a rate too until unfortunately he died.
So if you know someone who needs 5,000 books about the county I live in let me know
@@Breakfromlife Speaking of where you live I'm trying to figure our where your located more precisely. I have just the style of your living room and your accent to go on so far so I'm guessing somewhere in or around south London?
Your videos always have weird automatic title translations in Finnish. This one says "Snooker-tyynyn istuttaminen" which means "Sitting down a snooker-pillow". Great video anyway and greetings from Vantaa, Finland! 😀
The German one is "Blumenerde entlang dem Kissen" which would translate back as something along the lines of "Flower soil along the pillow"
I probably should stop using google translate for this then didn’t realise it was going this wrong. You can see what it’s done though as cushion and pillow are nearly interchangeable in English in any other conditions. Also it’s taken Potting and put flower soil like potting a plant. Not sure how it got sitting but that might be a result of something in Finnish
keep up the great videos \o/
Mint I'm gonna try this :)
Mention me please 😄 Saraan Asim from Islamabad, Pakistan❤ Love how you explain
I've been always rushing while to hit the cue ball.cause of that i can't pot the ball.what must i do to solve my problem?
You do have to find a rhythm that works for you before playing a shot. Otherwise this can become a problem. Try to stay focused on how you have lined up the shot though. Because occasionally you can miss by thinking about your technique and ignoring the shot you are trying to play
Can we get Belfast, Ireland on the map?
This is my favourite shot
Can you mention me Rishi from India
your videos show that you can run a table, what level of pro are you?
Sadly not a pro unfortunately have to be a lot better than that
Tell me sir , how to pot a long shot i always missed my long shot
Hello guys, I wanted to ask you for advice. I have been playin in my youth for 3 years and took a 8 years break, starting to play again in March 2019. I’m really struggling cause of inconsistency.
There are days, where I can make low breaks ( 20 - 40 ) consistently and on others I can’t even produce 4 balls in a row. My Problem is that I can’t make out the difference that’s causing the problem. Is it just a mental thing or a lack of training? FYI I’m training on my own in the local club 4 to 6 days a week and I’m practicing 1 -2 hours before starting to play against others.
I would be glad getting some advice.
Greetings from Germany
A lot of the time it is just that some days you are left slightly better chances than other. As well as it doesn’t take much for things to go wrong. Everyone struggles with this a little bit and a lot of the time it’s because you are worried about how you are playing. Will you be able to play some shots rather than actually being concerned about the game. This small difference can mean your not seeing what you need to do next clearly enough. With the possibility that your questioning every shot you have to play in a can I play it kind of way
Thanks for the fast response!! You are actually 100% on point, I do think a lot about my daily form. Therefore I’m maybe struggling on shots that I usually make. If I can’t make the first few easy ones, I might start overthinking every other situation too much, which leads me to even more struggle on easier shots afterwards.
Thank you so much for the help!! I really love ❤️ your videos, very good, clearly structured information provided in every single one of them ! Almost like a snooker Wikipedia 👍👍
Greetings from Nuremberg in Germany.
First important thing is to imagine the red ball going in the pocket with the right pace and then shoot it with that pace
good
Gary from Malaysia
Shot at 5.05 is insanely crazy
That table looks real slow and the pockets may I say are quite large but ty for video
How where you able to get you own table? I really want one 😪
It took me ages to find a big enough garage near me. As well as a lot of time to convert it

Can you mention me in one of your latest videos please.I subscribed to your channels and turned on notifications
Is there such thing as spin transfer in snooker because i cannot make the spin transfer into the object ball
Cape town south africa
Spin transfer is a contentious subject but absolutely side is transmitted - I've done this experiment so many times - with a striped ball you can see the effects - the closer you are = cue ball to object ball = more spin is transferred, the state of the balls will affect this as will the strength of shot. It's marginal but it is still spin transfer nonetheless.

Why u dont play world champ snooker?
Not good enough unfortunately
I hate to "bust your balls" but your stroke when you were demonstrating the "impossible cut" with the black seemed to have a huge swing to the left. I suspect its a symptom of snooker itself. You probably don't use exotic amounts of side spin very often playing snooker. Do you play any other pocket billiards or are you an exclusive snooker player?

Never said it was going to be easy. Just possible

why does someone dislike a video like this?
I’ve been wondering that for a while now because I usually get loads of dislike all at once. I think it’s just because it was offered to people who have no interest init
@@Breakfromlife maybe but again there is no point to dislike someone who shares his knowledge and experience for free. Keep up good work, your videos give nice tips and i would be definitely a much better player step by step if i had an available snooker table to practice. Greetings from Greece!
It is pronounced Ros Grey. Cheers.
How’s he to know.. and it’s “Ross Cray”
I think he’s right Bob and I do worry about the amount of people and place names I must butcher with this. I pretty sure I go no where near pronouncing Mutare right
@@otoolepw Do not expect him to know. I posted it for information not criticism calm down. Never heard of" Ross Cray"
@@Breakfromlife No problem was not being critical just trying to be helpful keep up the good work.
Your cue for me
