try playing by instinct pick a ball you want to pot and try to pot it without aiming properly its fun and you might be better without all the riff raff before the shot

Take your time on each shot and line them up.

Dont put spin on the cue ball unless it's needed.

This is what i did and now my highest break is 63

i got an 83 in real snooker all on instict

Good for you want a medal

would be nice ty

Yes it would wouldn't it

I beat it today i got a 31 missed hard red after also playing snooker on pool table got a 74 great day today really chufted

that was a bit unexpected, i find playing snooker on a pool table harder *confused smiley*

Always keep your eye on the object ball when striking

I played yesterday and beat my highest break of 42 with a 68 :)

ok mate... first of all take your time... theres no rush.
walk in to everyshot and dont try anythin fancy, u dont get bonus points for hittin it harder.. play the simpleist pot at the moment.. walk in and cue back and forth 3 or 4 times to get the angle of the pot.. bring the cue back and pause.. then strike the cueball.. it will feel weird at first but when u get into a rythm it will help your game..
yes you could play on instinct but thats not great.. only ronnie can do that tbh.. jus take your time and enjoy it and dont get annoyed if u miss.. u cant turn back time

Thanks mate my target is a 35+ now

Yeah andy thats some prooper good advice. I used to kinda just panic a bit, but as soon as i started to calm down i hit a 55. Just take the easy option all the time, and try and hit the ball in the middle unles you need side 100% and you'll be flying

instinct was just a practice excercise to help develop the way you can judge pace and position

just take ur time and like xtensive said dont use spin unless needed my highest is 112 in real life

just take ur time chalk ur cue and practise all the time and ur break will increase

i went from 37 at start of year to achieving 112 and having 6 cents by then end of the year

come on u can do it

thanks mate u im pretty good i could hit 20+ consistantly i then start to get panicky and mess it up 31 felt great could not imagine a 112 lol wd
