        it was a idea and it was tried out but it did not work and then a few months later the shootout happened and that overtook it.....

        thats the thing with gimmicks when another gimmick comes along thats the in thing same with 6 reds and onefourseven from global snooker before that.

        snooker has stood the test of time because its basic and simple to understand no gimmicks needed.

            The game itself was alright but the set up was poor, especially the crowd control.

              they did not let the game work your spot on

              there was more emphasis on getting ****ed and shouting.

                I thought the game itself was terrible - the crowd and presentation just made it worse.

                  yes it complicated a simple sport but at least if it was presented right we could have judged it better

                    I sincerely hope I'll never see that Power Snooker (I'll be polite and skip the adjective I have in mind) experiment happen again!

                      There was too many rules and few needed dropping. Otherwise, it would be fine. Probably a good game to play if the rules are minimised.

                      We had Pool and from that, 9 ball. Thats a good game. So variations can work but they need thinking about a bit more. The Shotout was thought over properly and was much better.

                          I think I seen somewhere that it is taking place in November I may be wrong though.
                          If they are putting the tournament on again they should stick to a normal star tournament table as the colour of the pockets, table, type of cloth just didn't look right.Also saying powerzone every 5 seconds is annoying after a while.
                          As a one off tournament though I think it can work.

                              Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water.
