   Watched about 9 hours of #snooker over the last 3 days, and feeling strangely zen. Could this be the new ASMR?

     @scribe I'm a huge snooker fan and former pool hall junky. What have you been watching?

     @scribe Ronnie can get very cantankerous at times, so he will break your zen occasionally.

     I love the game. I wish pool halls in the US also had snooker tables.

     @Ricardus The O'Sullivan-Higgins match mainly. Such relaxed intensity. Or intense relaxation, not sure which.

     @Ricardus Ha, yeah - there was a fist against the table once, but otherwise mostly just facial reactions from both. Selby nearly broke his cue against the table earlier too. Kind of need those moments to break the pressure a bit TBH.

     I love watching it. Not many snooker halls left round here I think, not for a few years.
