- If you know your going to lose just put your ball on the pocket and when its open to win go for it.

- Always look what ball your going for and what ball after that so set it up.

- Always take your time.

- Don't keep hitting the ball full power.

- Always use side, back and forword .

- Practice all your weak shots on the practice table.

- When facing a player that plays fast slow the game down.

- Figure out your opponents weaknesses.
- When facing a slow paced player play really fast and they will give way.
- When playing a good player e.g afey, squeezy etc your best way off winning is to snooker whenever possible and wait for a carry, then clear.
- Playing hundred's of games will not make you a better player! practising you weaknesses on the practise table for half hour or so every day does.

- If you have carry, don't be afraid to pot the opponents ball to get a better position on your colours.
(remember, you can only do it for the first shot after you recieve carry)
- If you are struggling, like playing against someone very fast pace. use snookers and position your balls over pockets or rest on their balls to slow the game down and make them play at your pace.

- On the practice table, play a game against yourself. break and play until a ball goes in, and then remember whose turn it is; "red you" or "yellow you" it's the best way of bringing up situations that will really come up, and if you play enough games against yourself, you will practice all your weaker shots.

Some good tips from the best players there.

says the expert...

Truth told, everything you've just said is a load of bullcrap.

I just saw you play and you blew more goatstessies than Bertie and Goo put together, which i thought was impossible.

If you wanna be good and have a good record best tip you can have is stay the hell outta my game. Its a well known fact that if you enter my room you're gonna end up with some losses on your record.

Tip of the day = Don't fvck with the best.

Tip of Day = play lars and get easy rank+wins.

Tip of Day to lars = stop playing crappies+guests and start playing the big boys.

Lars i have read many of your forums and i just have to ask. Would it kill you to give a compliment or even to say somthing nice. Just a thought.

some nice tips there! nice work :)

What is a goatstessie Lars? Haven't heard that piece of jargon before.

I agree with the practice table one, it's a neat way of fine-tuning the spins and knack of pacing the shots.

just so you know, i like nothing more than being snookered it's not the best plan to try and snooker the better players as they can pot from almost anywhere ^_^

weaker players will have a 50/50ish rate of pulling of a good snooker so it's better to either try and clear or wait for the better player to pot most of their balls, with your 6 or 7 balls remaining put them in a very good snooker, should be easy with so many balls, and then clear from the carry, if they hit their ball (which is likely for one or 2 shots) just repeat your snookering. simple ^_^

I never practice on the practice table. Just play 1 or 2 non-ranked games before playing ranked games etc. I could offer advice to people but then theyll be catching me at top so im keeping my lips sealed :-)

riddles....from your 'tips' you have great stats!

nice tips, take some of them on board! Thanks
