Quote from: gallsman on May 02, 2024, 10:47:25 AMI have absolutely no idea why he does "no look" shots whatsoever. I don't think it's in any way famously a regular feature of his game.
He plays the underarm shot because he (in)famously prefers it to using the rest or the spider. Again, he's trying to win.
Christ gallsman give it up! You don't know why he does "no look" shots? So you are going to dig the heels in and refuse to even countenance that, maybe...just maybe....it's down to him trying to be entertaining/showing a little fun? A little....personality?
And again, you've an awful habit of taking one specific example from a list. The point is, he regularly tries to bring a bit of light heartedness/entertainment to the table when he plays, and he does so in a whole range of forms - not just by closing his eyes taking shots, or turning his head away as he strikes the cue ball, or not just by playing underarm shots when its unnecessary, or not jsut in joking with his opponent and the refs, and no, not just by sharing sweets with the audience (as a single example that you've now twice tried to minimise this discussion down to).
