between Cliff Thorburn and Terry Griffiths at the Crucible Theatre in 1983. The match was famous because, during the match, Thorburn completed the first maximum break at the Crucible. As Thorburn lined up to pot the black, Karnehm uttered the words: "Good luck, mate". Karnehm was also a noted snooker coach, and in 1985 released an instructional video, Understanding Modern Snooker. He continued to coach, and was still President of the Radstock Billiards association until 2000. He died suddenly in 2002, aged 85, after an afternoon working on his garden in extreme heat.
