What would you do right after entering the last 9 ball that will give you the title of World Pool Masters? How would you react to learn that you have just proclaimed Snooker world champion at the Crucible or just achieved Maximum Break? You would probably also go on the table you like crazy or make a good cry in the theater of Sheffield. The celebrations are one of the most emotional and special moments of any sport, also in pool. So in today's article we highlight seven euphoric moments of the best billiard players in the world.

It's time to discover them.
