2014 World Championship - Discussion

anybody who tries to say these pockets are tight are clearly deluded.
that ball never should have dropped, its been like it from the start.
possibly a ploy from world snooker to make sure robertson made his 100 centuries! lol

but these pockets are ridiculous, the table i practice on at my club is an old billiard table im told and has very tight pockets, the other table i use and played matches on last season is not anywhere near as tight and theres still no way a ball would drop like that did for hawkins!

i have no doubt the pros usually play with tighter pockets than most club tables but it simply cannot be the case in this tournament

Buckets!!!

Exactly, but we aren't allowed to have that opinion because some on this forum will tell you it's not the case and they are tighter than a ducks a***

Go on Barry...punish him!

Pots along the cushion are unmissable as long as you don't play them with power.

[cyberheater]

LOL. Even Joe Johnson implying the pockets are a bit easy.

The red was not on the cushion. It was about half an inch away from the cushion just under the black spot. It hit the cushion about 8 inches from the pocket and still went in. I've never seen that on a pro table before.

Or hit them thick.

[Ronnie's tip]

ROS' safety has been really poor.

These pockets are a bit ridiculous tbh.

[Dani]

Lol Ronnie. Hawkins will hammer him.

[attilahun]

Lol Ronnie. Hawkins will hammer him.

Calm down...it is not first to 3...it is first to 17 frames.....

[Table_of_Reds]

This is Dott 2006 all over again.

[daffie]

Come on Barry...ruthless! You gotta be ruthless! :snooker:

[Table_of_Reds]

This table is crap. Kicks, roll-offs, big bounces all over the place. Not to mention buckets for corner pockets.

[daffie]

I say...each kick earns you 7 extra points...regardless of whether you potted the ball. Should be one hell of a bonus-system.

[scottley]

Ronnie hardly has the white cleaned.
