The 2019 Shoot Out (officially the 2019 BetVictor Snooker Shoot Out) was a professional ranking snooker tournament, taking place from 21 to 24 February 2019 at the Watford Colosseum in Watford, England.[1][2] It was played under a variation of the standard rules of snooker, and it was the fourteenth ranking event of the 2018/2019 season.

Michael Georgiou was the defending champion, but he lost to Li Hang 28–45 in the second round.[3]

Thepchaiya Un-Nooh won his first career ranking title, beating Michael Holt 74–0 in the final. Un-Nooh's 139 break in the semi-final was the highest in the history of the Shoot Out.[4]

Tournament format

[edit]

The tournament was played using a variation of the traditional snooker rules. The draw was randomised before each round. All matches were played over a single frame, each of which lasted up to 10 minutes. The event featured a variable shot clock; shots played in the first five minutes were allowed 15 seconds while the final five had a 10-second timer. All foul shots awarded the opponent a ball in hand. Unlike traditional snooker, if a ball did not hit a cushion on every shot, it was a foul. Rather than a coin toss, a lag was used to choose which player breaks. In the event of a draw, each player received a shot at the blue ball this is known as a "blue ball shootout". The player who potted the ball with the cue ball from inside the D and the blue ball on its spot with the opponent missing won the match.
