    Would be great to see snooker properly take off in the U.S.

    Thanks for that trains. 👍 Can't see it catching on TBH, but you never know, stranger things have happened over there.

    The fast and the furious,
    The slow and labourious,
    All of us, glorious parts of the whole!

      ^^ I've never been to the US, have you been PB ? do you have a feel of what their likes and dislikes are ? my limited guessing is that it would just be an investment problem, i don't think its too drawn out for them I mean they like golf, but really no idea though.-

        I have ' an believe it's sellable to them, maybe even more so as the decline in Canada has sadly continued there's a good possibility as they distance themselves from one another that they will use this to fuel a great rivalry between them! Now that would be quite something!! fingers 🤞

          No, never been there. Maybe CC's right, 🤞 would be great to have the game over there.

            I watched some of last years tournament and the standard was pretty low. To be honest the game doesn't suit their heavily commercialised television, the super bowl takes nearly four hours for a game that lasts only 60 minutes, imagine that applied to the snooker world championships there would be three commercial breaks during a ton break, a troupe of cheerleaders and a marching band coming on after every frame and a 75 year old Bruce Springsteen playing a mid session interval set
            Speak up, you've got to speak up against the madness, you've got speak your mind if you dare
            but don't try to get yourself elected, for if you do you'll have to cut your hair

              ^^ #6 Yeah I watched some of it over the weekend and a bit of the final, wasn't an easy watch.
              They'd need to invest in and maintain good Aristocrats, Rassons and Star's, i think i only saw 1 good Star table in the tournament.

              I like the NFL, it has no salary cap and while some referee's calls can be frustrating the officiating is in no way on the bonkers and bought and paid level of FIFA UEFA and the EPL.

              I could have watched the baseball MLB season on Bet365 but it just doesnt do anything for me, neither does basketball or ice hockey.
