This week Stephen swaps cues in order to take on the World Champion pool player Gareth Potts in a game of 8 Ball. Along the way, Gareth breaks down the techniques and thought processes of professional pool players in how they approach the potting patterns to clear the table. The standard of pool is high in this one from both players, Stephen even finds a newfound respect for the sport! Let us know in the comments if you’ve enjoyed this one.

He's good
Is it just me or are they playing on a smaller pool table? Looks like a bar table tbh
7 time world champ still being humble to listen to Potts, 🫡
👏👍
Thing is as a snooker player I know I could go play him and have a chance to win a frame or two – could he go and beat a snooker player on a snooker table – I doubt it – pool is infinitely easier than snooker no matter what some pool players say – and American pool with those massive pockets isn’t even a challenge and holds no attraction for me in the slightest- either way still a good vid and he’s a nice guy 👍🏻🍻
Classic!
That was really good fun to watch. It’s awesome watching someone who knows what they are about going about their craft.
And he sucked you in big time Stephen😁😁. Great watch, thanks👍👍👍
6:53 "Are you happy with that cue ball?"
What are the dimensions of that table? Is it a standard tournament table? Looks small to me.
7:39 do you have to hit a cushion after contact on your first shot?
No let’s see Gareth go play snooker and we’ll see how good he is
Stephen being very generous pretending he doesn’t know about cue ball positioning.
As if pool is anywhere as near as hard as snooker.
Just brilliant, ❤️ this channel! Keep up the fantastic content! Enough said!
Do you get 2 on the black ??
hahah no way his last name is Potts?
Stephen , i'm not a pool fan , but like you ,after watching this i have a new found respect for pool players
Hehehehehe. Epic last minute win!!
Brilliant stuff!!
10:31 Yeah yeah, totally I could do that with ease. 🤣🤣🤣 Two masterful players at their sports making pool look as easy as opening the fridge door. Seriously impressive, wish I had that type of foresight and skill.
ahahah great end : ) ggs
Alt geworden!
Henry had them there, and so he should !! I play pool and snooker and snooker is at a different level if you're good.
