Impossible to escape [Snooker Controversy, Interesting situation]

ballrun bingham

Why didn't he swerve it around all the reds off 8 cushions and snooker him behind the yellow?

The second one is not impossible

Snooker fight

Could have put him back in but played on.

When in an impossible snooker hit the object ball where the light shines on it. Say 6 hail Mary's. Break wind twice, call the ref a c**t and you should be OK. Have to say I have never seen my theory work, but give it a try.

Thanks for explaining nothing in this video!

How do they not know what to do here? That situation must come up ALL THE TIME.

Terrible reffing.

The miss-rule is good; its only possible in a Gentleman's game like snooker, though. In many instances, I have seen players who just didnt take the miss even if the ref called it because they knew it was either almost unhittable or a good enough attempt, even if it was a foul. I'm surprised Bingham didnt just continue playing after the first shot.

โง่อย่างนี้อย่าแข่งเลย

I wish there was commentary. I do not know the rules but I am fascinated by this game.

ok iam lost... the dude in red hit the que. then 5 mins later the balls were in the same spot and he hit them again... wtf ... was that a reset or something ..

Looks like an H2O molecule 😂

Should ask the ref "If that is a miss then please tell me how to attempt the shot better so as no to have a miss call?"

Hold trickshot
Jones jumpshot
these where to easy...

Never see this kind of bs in pool, snooker is full of incompetent refs and drama queens

I have no idea how the first was a miss!

Jones could have tried the old, "Oh my gosh everyone look up there" then played the shot.

Why was there an issue with the non shooter when the shooter played a bad shot?

If Selby he would have tortured himself with this unintentional snooker, he plays meanly so I hate selby.

What was the point of ref calling holt's first attempt and miss when it was so obvious he couldn't get to it.

Both snookered guys should have asked the ref to clean the white ball.

first clip = why was the first one foul and a miss and the second "take" just a foul?

😍😳😂

Such a stupid game. The rules are idiotic, and leave too much up to speculation and judgement.

If I understand this correctly, in a situation where it is impossible to escape without commiting a snooker, the player has to hit the balls, in such a manner, as to leave an easy shot on for his/her opponent.
Is that correct?

They aren't following the rule properly. You are supposed to aim 'directly' at a colour in a straight line even though you are aiming at the reds. It's a weird rule anyway. I think you have to nominate the colour you are going for.

It is utterly ridiculous in this situation that a replacement of the balls is allowed. Totally unfair

When did Drake Bell start playing snooker?

Ok

He looks like Asian Elon Musk

I'm a new snooker fan. I have idea what's going on in this video.

Go off the top cushion with the rest!!!!!!

The worst part is that he has to nominate a color. Also the not calling a miss on holts second is the right (judgment) call. The ref believes on the first shot that the ball can be struck, missing the same shot twice indicates that it cant be hit.

I totally understand what is happening.

Noise reduction might be good (Audacity)

Please add subtitles the. It would be great then

I'd like to see moments like this, where a player is in an impossible to escape snooker, be a frame conceding moment. Give these impossible snookers the value of a checkmate. Adds value to safety shots and raises the skill ceiling.

They haven’t a clue

How is this an impossible shot?

This would make more sense of I had the slightest clue what you're talking about.

I wish that was Ronnie. I wonder what he would have done? Blast every single red ball each time a miss was called. What a stupid stupid rule when controlled by a mindless referee, "miss", "miss", "miss", "miss", "miss", "miss", "miss", "miss", "miss", "miss", "miss". At least the second referee had some brains and common sense!

ask for a rerack

Well done marco.Bingham not as generous

Should be frame over if the snooker is impossible, has to be a reason why it’s called snooker

Where are the commentators to explain what the problem is for those of us who dont understand this game?

And this is when snooker players become obstinate cunts.

This is why the miss rule makes no sense. This is just some BS.

Not to mention the fact that you can get a zillion points in fouls out of a snooker only if you're not in a snookers required situation, which makes no sense.

Quick - cut to the computer graphics which tell you f*** all 🤣
