Aiming/Sighting Consistency

Still persisting with that one, eh? Keep going, whatever joke you have in mind will make sense eventually, and I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.

Hi Big Shot. The pockets in pool are massive and it's easy! And in snooker, the pockets are tighter and it's way harder.

I have already answered him. Do keep up.

Still blind.

Look up a few posts. My response is under Cue Man's, which i quoted and answered in the traditional manner. Sorry you're finding this so difficult to follow.

Methinks you are a complete moron then, i can not see any response anywhere, please supply link to post

Agreed with the above, although I always say it's easy for both players, so you still need to be doing something different / better,
to beat the opponent.

Where do you think 3 cushion billiards fits in on the degree of difficulty ( no pocket sizes to guide us there ) ?

your just coming across as a bi-billiard, what do you want

I'm still confused why you wish to post on a snooker forum when you're knowledge of it is so limited and please stop quoting anecdotal refs when you have no proof

This thread is great!

Snooker is easy Innit! And poolz is dead hard and stuff!

This.

What the hell was I thinking putting a snooker table in my basement, when I could have the challenge of a small table with big pockets, and the opportunity to improve my shameful positional play? I could win off the break and save me all the time and effort of actually potting balls.

On a serious note, I hate it when playing snooker with a pool player, and when they don't have a good shot they smack the white into the pack and scatter the reds everywhere. But then the skill is all about the break.

I'm a moron because you cannot find my response to cue man? Are you sure about that?

Forums are relatively easy for morons like me to use. What i tend to do is quote the person i wish to respond to, then write a reply addressing their specific concerns. It's a most effective means of communication, almost like talking, but in written form. It's fascinating.

That you appear unable to find my reply to cue man is regrettable, but not my concern. I wish you greater success with your future reading endeavours.

What makes you think my knowledge of snooker is limited?

Reading comprehension skills are shocking in these parts, whilst jumping to conclusion-ability is rife.

Are you saying this was your answer ?? see link below, if so you didn't answer it, and it was ace man, not cue man

That just links the thread. Yes, ace man - cue man is a poster from a different forum - my mistake. I answered ace man's post shortly after he made it, choosing to keep to the topic at hand, rather than veer off in to the land of fantasy and speculation.

No it doesn't ! it links to where ace man said this;
"think Mr Big Shot is an experienced troll.
On AZ Billiards forums he often teases Americans as to how badly they cue and how snooker and english pool players are far superior. Uses names like The Thaiger and various other aliases.
But here on this site, he chose a different strategy. Rather than spitting on US pool players, he now tries to present 9ball as even tougher than snooker.
I would bet money that this is the same person, style seems almost identical.
If that isn't master trolling, I don't know what is."

Then i asked if you had any comment to make on that statement, i am still waiting !

I can't agree with that and anyone that plays both snooker and pool will tell you that is a myth. In pool, potting balls is easy and positional play is difficult. In snooker, the opposite is true. Large open spaces and multiple options on both reds and colours versus single ball position on a smaller table with lots of traffic in the way...i know which i prefer when it comes to positional play.

Pros in both games make both elements look ridiculously easy, when all us hacks know otherwise.

Pool is all about not making mistakes. Make one minimal positional error and you lose. A snooker player can make 36 minimal positional mistakes and still clear the table in one visit

He must be a very good player then !!!
Mr big shot ,, Would you please think carefully about what you're saying here ??. Because to be honest,, when you say things like this,, the only thing cross in my mind is : This fella is on drugs !!
Do you really think making a break of 147 is easy?? or possible with 36 positional mistakes ?? Do u know some one hoe can clear the table with 36 positional mistakes ( in one visit ) ???
Most of the time, just 1 positional mistake means end of the break.
I respect your opinion as wel as all other members of this forum .. but u might wanna think at least 30 seconds before you gonna say things like this. Are you not a bit biased here ????
anyway,, you are what you are. I do'nt think you will change !!
But consider some things u re saying here could be no harm for your own knowledge ......

Mr Big didn't actually say that Ramon so it's you who is looking a bit silly for criticising something he didn't say especially as you did repeat his exact statement in your posting ... he did not say someone can clear the table in snooker making 36 positional mistakes ...

what he did say was "Pool is all about not making mistakes. Make one minimal positional error and you lose. A snooker player can make 36 minimal positional mistakes and still clear the table in one visit" ... the key word here is "minimal" ...
