Snooker Basics: How to Play Snooker

Bought this as a joke present and it went down really well! 😂 It got a good laugh and was actually quite a fun little gift idea. The book itself is decent quality and makes a quirky stocking filler or novelty present. Overall, a great light-hearted gift—perfect if you’re looking for something a bit different!

There are 102 pages in this book, 35 of them are completely blank, 14 have only the chapter headings on and another 6 are the introduction and contents pages at the start. The remaining 47 have text in a typeface so large that it should be reserved for baby books. It's like a school essay padded out to cover as much paper as possible. The small amount of text that is presented is banal and gives very little assistance to anyone trying to learn the game. The reason I bought this was because it was the only book claiming to teach how to play snooker that was available new. Since then I have purchased one secondhand from further down the list and that was much better and in decent condition. I recommend you to do the same.

Such a disappointment as half the book isn't really about HOW to play/improve.

A good guide for the players who have just started the game. Good basic techniques and guide for stance and aiming

Very helpful if you haven’t played snooker before

YOU D BE SNOOKERED. IF YOU DID NOT READ. THIS BOOK. Mr. A. Morris. Everyone Stay Safe And Healthy At AMAZON. (WORLDWIDE. ). ALLAN MORRIS. ( DIOLCH. ).

Very clear and easy. Could have included more explanation of the main terms.

If you've played snooker more than a couple of times, you don't need this. A complete waste of money. INCREDIBLY basic.

the book is not bad at all. it is just that it is rather short and the essence is rather thin. to compress it a little bit more it tells me " to relax and stand properly". i had hoped to get more. on the other hand the book won't hurt ...

This so-called "how to do it" manual on the complex game of snooker is devoid of a single picture or illustration. It's an all copy narrative that was slapped together on a word processor. Completely insulting in its cynicism in thinking that any reader seeking knowledge would accept this drivel. I complained to Amazon and they returned my money. In the meantime, it caused unnecessary frustration and loss of valuable time. I hope that Amazon will remove it from their offerings because of its unworthiness.

Un bon livre traitant de l'essentiel pour un bon apprentissage du snooker. Dommage, cependant, que la théorie ne soit pas appuyée par des visuels ou schémas, indispensables, à mon goût, à la bonne compréhension de l'ensemble.

Just a general discussion of tables, ques, stance, and the need to practice. Barely any mention of strategy, and just the broadest outline of the game. I assumed there'd be at least a picture of the opening ball setup, but no, not even that.

I liked nothing about the book. It seems like a folder of usage words. No Photos, or Diagrams.
