Ambidextrous Players

Yes!! I have noticed usually he plays left-hand, but when he won a frame he easily potted balls with right! BTW maybe with rest he also plays with right, have anybody noticed?

i didn't notice with the rest, but he looked well at ease with his right...another Ronnie, perhaps?

[missneworleans]

He is as fast as Ronnie, his style looks like Ronnie, except not so emotional, what is actually a big plus to his game

Mike Siegel (one of the greatest pool players in history) is righthanded, but plays with his left.

You will probably find that most players can play quite decently with their left hands, as well as myself, it's not really a natural thing. Ronnie couldn't just pick up a cue with his left and play STRAIGHT AWAY. It does take a bit of training!

Ronnie learnt how to use his left hand, if he was ambidextrous, he could win ranking tournaments with it, but he cant.

[ADR147]

actually i think he has won with it!

[Squidski]

He's never won a tournament using just his left hand i assure you!

[SD147]

Actually Squidski, most players CANNOT play to a decent standard with their other hand! A decent standard is someone who can make at the very least 50 breaks regularly.

My brother is right handed and has made a few 147's, but has also made a few hundreds with his left hand, his highest left handed is 137. He's quite vain though and can't wait to do it on TV lol!

Murphy has made centuries left handed. Judd Trump can play right handed. Ian Mcculloch also. Hawkins plays right handed with the rest as does Trump.
