1) fluke snookers
2) fluked red and flukes position on color
3) fluked supposed fouls

4) when u try to snooker someone u end up giving free balls
5) u know its not going in off in that hole,but it went in others

punch him.

Always play with open minded and remember that snooker is always a gentlemen games.
Maintain your calmness and make sure your basic cueing is on the right path. This will slowly increase your luck and flukes..
Other than that, practise on precise cue ball control and cue power would be the best.

Last option, is get to snooker him few times, and if he foul and miss.. ask one more or again..

nah just punch him works for me :snooker:

[Freddie Ng]

Yeah.. sometimes i do wish to punch and hit him..
There is once I played with a boy.. his luck on flukes were really amazing.. just by simply hitting a red ball the other goes in.. I was totally shock and in the end he won by 10++ points.
Last week I was playing with a Nepalese worker, I was leading by 30++ points at first, then he simply hit and snooker me for few times.. all my points gone in split seconds..

This are the two unlucky times I have, after playing snooker for 1 year plus.. really **** at that moment..

Sometimes you have a wave of bad luck but surely, at some point, it will turn into good luck, bad luck for your opponent. When does this happen? I think you have absolutely no control over this. At least I haven't. It just flips and then I try to enjoy the good luck while it lasts.

Practice snooker escapes!

Bad luck and flukes are an integral part of the game. You can practice alot and improve your technique of controling the cue ball and the object ball, I believe it should help to decrease the flukes but you can never beat it.

Pray before you play

Luck evens out eventually, just be patient and don't get hung up on the concept.

Luck is a part of the game mate but if you are a better player you must win anyway
You will have luck too dont worry
