Got a 147 today but stopped to ask what the prize money was for a maximum and when told it was only £4k for the highest break went to shake everyones hand when only the black was on the table
Ref had to persuade him to pot it. Hes a fucking looney but i like him When hes on his game he is out of this world good.

It was brilliant watching him do that, he smashed the black in as well
His interview was very funny after it as well

Legend! Only snooker player I will go out my way to watch. The look on Mark Kings face when Ronnie left the black was brilliant!

What prize money would he get for a 147? Surely its more than just ht highest break?

From reading the BBC site, there is no price fund for a 147 in that tournament. They just give £4k to whoever gets the highest break.

Just watched the video, asking what the maximum break prize is after potting a ball. Sheer genius

Seriously amazing how he had a look at that stage and decided he could get the 147 He must be autistic or something
When im playing im just happy if i get the ball in, never mind where the white ends up next

interview was great, interviewer said steve davis thinks that is the best frame of snooker he has ever seen and then waited expecting some conversation and he just said 'thanks'
