It's truly remarkable how Jimmy can maintain a proper decent standard at his age. Motivation alone is incredible. Top bloke. Wouldn't we all love to witness 'the most incredible moment in sporting history' if he won the Worlds?
@@johnredpath I mean, sort of yeah. You're right, he probably would have managed to beat Hendry in a couple of those finals had he looked after himself and focused better. But to be fair to him, nobody could beat Hendry back then. The fact Jimmy beat his way into 6 world finals was amazing enough, and the one guy nobody could beat appeared to block him winning most of those. He came a hair away from topping Hendry on two occasions also, but yeah nerves and fatigue got the better of him.
opportunity? you do realize liam davies won 2 matches in the world snooker championship qualifiers recently make about £15,000 in prize money, he's gonna be on the tour next season no doubt lol
Young people now have no idea how to dress for an occasion. Smart casual would of done like shirt & trousers and shiny shoes. Its respect for yourself aswell as for the legend that is Jimmy White. The lady who lead him in put him to shame with her stunning red dress & he proved he was a young lad. If he had looked the part Jimmy might of took more notice. Plenty of young players have won qualifiers etc & disappeared. Like any career, you have got to look the part to be taken seriously
@@ChrisScott464 this guy already plays at mark williams club with mark and has won 2 matches at the age of 15 in the world championship don’t think he’s bothered
Nice to see Jimmy hasn't let coaches change his style. I always loved the way he addresses the very bottom of the cue ball and then adjusts the tip height on the shot. I couldn't do that if I tried!
In a way he has. Watching him now to when he beat Hendry in 1998 10-4, to when he beat Matthew stevens in the B&H masters and when he was playing in the 1980's is like watching 4 different players. There are a few aspects that have been adjusted and changed by coaches that didn't need to be. I agree he has always addressed the cueball low and most of his timing and line of aim is probably done by that. He used to flow around the table and he was absolutely amazing to watch. He should have had Ray Reardon's advice and not the ones he went to. Great player though and one of my faves, it's a shame he never won more as his talent deserved.
Jimmy used to twirl his cue. I do believe that if Jimmy never tampered with his natural action and put in more hours he'd be a better player now. I think what he needs to do in his current situation is to breathe and chuck his cue through shots. He's all too serious these days.
@@Kev7-c6u yes he did. And again, all ads up to his natural timing. He started to see problems that weren't there and over thinking. I recently watched a Ray Reardon documentary and he said about Ronnie o Sullivan, that his aim was to make him impregnable. Jimmy lost 6 finals, o sullivan won 6. Reardon's help got him to 6. Maybe it would have helped. Its sad because how Jimmy used to play was so fluent and at his best he could demolish any player. Shame, Too late now.
@@LordFlashheart.11 Hendry was the reason White never won a final. Hendry was an ice cold killer on the table. He had his chance and choked when he only needed that small clearance. Shame.
@@slippyg Yes I agree, White should have won 2 of those finals. In one he was 16-11 up I think. Then in 94 the one he was close to winning he slung his cue into a routine black. My point is that I watched him in the seniors recently and his approach, cue action, and mannerism has changed again. He can still play well but his natural line of aim and talent is what still carries him through, in the pro tour/ circuit thats not enough. Too much has gone from his original game. In the earlier years especially the 84 final against Davis when he lost he didn't give a damn. He thought that there would be other years....we know what happened next! After Hendry came an army of similar standard players.
Good frame. Naturally, Liam has come on miles since this. I feel if he'd been more aggressive and took the free ball (brown), he'd have won this frame. I like to see Jimmy get more in to the exhibition spirit.
Also, he was f##king around with that remote right in front of Liam while he was lining up for that long pot, the one that went wrong, letting Jimmy in. I can only assume he doesn't referee for a living 🤣
Eric Jimmy is a legend as a player but needs to take a lesson from Ken Doherty who really has the audience in the palm of his hand at exhibitions. He would have succeeded as a comedian if he wasn't a professional snooker player FACT.
@@johndean4765 only wstching ken doing this earlier on, big difference for sure....this was boring..jimmy shudda ad a sniff or a bevi, crowds dead too...yawn
Ryan who wants to shake a players hand after they've had a crap or like I sometimes see pick their nose in full view of people.Even some professionals do this it's disgusting.
"So much room for error" That's the point. That's what separates the wheat from the chaff. If you have inexperienced players beating world champions in your game then your game has a problem. It's too easy
Think liam Davies needs to take a few hints and tips of you know who, before he even thinks of challenging a professional again!blew up in his face,lol😂😂🤣,go on Jimmy!👍
Nothing blew up in his face. The boy's 15 years old and playing one single frame against a guy who's been a professional for 42 years! Just a few weeks after this, Liam became the youngest player ever to win a match in the World Championship!
Yeah but the young bloke Liam Davies is all too serious and he even put Jimmy back in for the respot when he had the freeball to take the brown into the middle if he wanted . I think Jimmy didn't like that one bit. Jimmy wanted to see what Liam was capable of. 😜
The what ifs in snooker white one of the greatest players never to win the worlds. One pot away would never of missed that red in a million years. Stephen lee I think he could of got a few worlds. Unbelievable player his cue power was insane. Shame he went down the wrong route.
Alex, Jimmy and Ronnie are the modern trailblazers of snooker. Incredible players to watch.
It's truly remarkable how Jimmy can maintain a proper decent standard at his age. Motivation alone is incredible. Top bloke. Wouldn't we all love to witness 'the most incredible moment in sporting history' if he won the Worlds?
Only got himself to blame for not winning...drink and drugs.
@@johnredpath AGREED 👍
@@johnredpath drink and drugs and Stephen Hendry to be more precise 😉

I was there man, Beautiful piece, authentic badgers hair, hand tufted
Ref getting in early, ‘Settle down now please’ 😂😂😂
If I had an opportunity to play Jimmy White in an exhibition match I'd like to think I would make more of an effort to dress a little more formally!
opportunity? you do realize liam davies won 2 matches in the world snooker championship qualifiers recently make about £15,000 in prize money, he's gonna be on the tour next season no doubt lol

Pathetic, he can dress as he wants.
Nice to see Steven lee in the audience spectating.
That's just what I thought, the guy on the end. That's as cl9se as Steven Lee is g9nna get to a game of snooker lol...
that isnt stephen lee its a welsh lookalike!
Nice to see Jimmy is still rocking that badger on his head
Yep and the rolled up fiver in his back pocket
It’s an otter, not a grey in sight!!
I've always been amazed how low Jimmy aims on the cue ball - does hi actually hit there too or is it just set-up?
He cues the white low but at the point of contact does not hit there.
It's just a way of finding the center of the cue ball. He hits it higher.
Misses reds, hits pink, ref calls foul 4
Sounds like, Foul 6 for *inaudible*
Referee was diabolical
Thought it was Stephen Lee in the crowd at the beginning 🤣
Lol me too
I think he works there now mate, bar staff
Whos Steven lee🤤🤤
@@Ryanjoned163 he’s the guy with the Rolls Royce cue action and scapegoat for another snooker player 😉

Jimmy even took his woman along for the road trip, to walk the lad out. 😂
Nice break by Liam, that was a good frame. Jimmy still has it.
What a game respect to both players
Good frame. Naturally, Liam has come on miles since this. I feel if he'd been more aggressive and took the free ball (brown), he'd have won this frame.

Jimmy still the legend ☝️
Yeh He is for sure.. I still can't believe he didn't manage to win at least one world championship. But he was up against an Android for most of them
The Wig is shit
What was the final points in this frame. I know white won
nice to see steven lee there supporting, (bottom right hand corner)
I think hitting the pink is a foul 6? Good that it got corrected.
Poor ref having a bit of a mare 🤣
Yep, I thought I'd gone crazy
Can't stand those people who mutter 'shot' after every single shot. Shutup ya plebs XD
Kinda like the get in the hole quote from evey living American at the masters
SHOT
@@jasonwindebank5455 OOOO! You’re one of them :O
@@obs4281 sorry i had to and when i play thinking about i say it a lot
They’re probably just showing support for the actual child against the former pro
Ladies and gentlemen, a moment of silence for jimmy White's hair.
Holy cow, the woman in red was SMOKING hot!
What is background music?
I played jimmy white ones in a pool exhibition at Rileys in Birmingham. I broke off and that was my last shot
Look at the position of the pink to the reds when he breaks off... was the ref drunk ?
The pink was positioned just fine. It just looks like that from that angle.
Sound of the zoom on the camera, sounds like something off a 60’s Spy film.
Not once did the ref call out the scores...... 😊🐟🇫🇷🏴
Also, he was f##king around with that remote right in front of Liam while he was lining up for that long pot, the one that went wrong, letting Jimmy in. I can only assume he doesn't referee for a living 🤣
Yes he did numb nuts
Yes he does.

Without roney's photo in the house there is no snooker

What year was this? It look weard crowd so near.
It was just a few weeks ago. This was just one frame in an exhibition match.
Ok. It New then
Good frame that
❤❤❤
Jimmys not exactly working the crowd is he 😂 meant to be an exhibition 😮it was like playing in the doctors

@@johndean4765 only wstching ken doing this earlier on, big difference for sure....this was boring..jimmy shudda ad a sniff or a bevi, crowds dead too...yawn
The most british crowd i ve seen
What music is playing at the very beginning?
Survivor - Burning Heart
Cross armed joyousness
whos the lady any names?
Jade Slusarczyk, that's Jimmy's girlfriend!
Is it Liam Davis or Davies?
I know this kid is good for his age but it’s fair to say he’s not no hendry or Ronnie. However good luck to the kid
Anyone else never wash their hands after a good 💩💩 I do
I don’t wipe my arse either.
@Mikey Modelle usually my turd is full of blood in it
Stop talking shite.

Least The Referee Made An Effort For Jimmy.......
Liam 51 - 66 Jimmy White
I think the boy is younger than that!!!
For 15/year old mate good he going pro I’ll put a bet on it anyone??
Come on wiggy 😆
Lady in red :P
Dress code for all surely...!?
Torture
what looking at Jimmy's fig on his head
Exhibition match? It was like watching paint dry. Just hope nobody paid to get in.
Foul 4 but hit the pink 6 🙄🤣🤣🤣
This game is so goofy. So much room for error
Says the guy playing on a table with buckets for pockets...
"So much room for error" That's the point. That's what separates the wheat from the chaff. If you have inexperienced players beating world champions in your game then your game has a problem. It's too easy
Thats the whole point u plank....its not meant to be easy. Only the more skilled players can actually play a proper game of snooker!
Jimmy played well but I reckon it was fixed
Think liam Davies needs to take a few hints and tips of you know who, before he even thinks of challenging a professional again!blew up in his face,lol😂😂🤣,go on Jimmy!👍

Can't believe people sit there and watch the Wig.. he was never a class player..6 finals?? No win..a bum
How many World titles have you won then?
He was playing against one of the greatest players ever in his prime. White is the best player never to win a world championship.
White has made multiple competitive 147s that’s a undisputed measure of class and understanding of game
well done Bernard ....one of the most stupid comments on TH-cam
Like you then
Is it just me or did Jimmy go for the yellow to give the chap a chance to come back to the table... 👍👍
Absolutely... He's a gent.
Yes I spotted that!
Yeah but the young bloke Liam Davies is all too serious and he even put Jimmy back in for the respot when he had the freeball to take the brown into the middle if he wanted .
I think Jimmy didn't like that one bit. Jimmy wanted to see what Liam was capable of. 😜
100%
No he ran out of position
The greatest natural talent there ever was. c'mon jimmy
One player even More gifted with natural genius ability was Joe o'Boye but drink was his downfall.
Ronnie what????? Miles ahead of any player ever..FACTS
Young lad recently in world's qualifiers.. Beat fergal o brien.. Won 2 rds.. Jordan brown beat him..
The lady in red 👀
Im glad Jimmy is the Professional that He is and Dressed for the Occasion.........Young Man Your Playing a Snooker LEGEND, some Respect please.
Those 3 guys must have a combined weight of a metric ton. Disgusting
Saw stephen Lee in the audience, what a fine potter he was, just a shame he got messed up with throwing frames
Yes, I thought it was. Agree he was a great player!
Perhaps he had a bash with Jimmy for a few hundred quid.
Its not him
Jimmy White 1994 World final.. The black... 1982 semi final.. The black...
This bum could have made a effort playing against jimmy white
The difference between natural talent & robotic taught talent
Jimmy gave him a few chances he was only just warming up
The what ifs in snooker white one of the greatest players never to win the worlds. One pot away would never of missed that red in a million years. Stephen lee I think he could of got a few worlds. Unbelievable player his cue power was insane. Shame he went down the wrong route.
Wonderfull red dress.
That Chap mustn't hav any Cloths,,,, HE VERY BADLEY DRESS,d,,
Was that mike? 😳
coach liam to have some respect for himself and game...and dress properly...
Happy for Jimmy. That's the first match Jimmy's won since the 1994 world final loss against Hendry
