Ronnie v Thepchaiya will be over in a couple of hours lol, the quickest players on tour
This season the stats are Ronnie played 45 matches average shot time 16.80 Thepchaiya played 54 matches average shot time 16.90
Exciting, but dangerous for Ronnie. Bottom draw very heavy so likely if Trump gets through the early stages he will be there abouts. I said to a mate it wont surprise me if Ford turns up and if Trump isn't firing, its not impossible Ford has the game to beat Judd just needs to do something he hasn't and win a first round, far too inconsistent.
Some crackers there, could be interesting. I'm excited, on Robbo and Murphy at the mo but as both in bottom half might look at someone other than trump in the top.
Real banana skin for O'Sullivan. Should be a good game to watch though.
Agreed mate, its one he should play well in but Un nooh is such a talented player if he gives him the chances he will take them. 65/35 Ronnie for me.
On a side note, cant remember if i posted so sorry if i am repeating myself (busy last week) Ronnie played Hawkins at where i play county pool last Friday, one of the people i know who works there occasionally was picking out the balls for them. I was gutted, i would have loved to be there, at Jordans Bar in Rainham (run by Jordan Church one of the best players in the world at pool, also now captain for Kent A)
Just thought I would throw this out there Players records against each other

You do a brilliant job on here, giving us so much information, who do you fancy to win it?
Thanks
Its tough this year
Pre lockdown I would have said 100% Judd or Robbo
But lockdowns changed so much, its a bit of an out there shot, but the way he played in the Tour Championships I really like Stephen Maguire
One thing for sure I am not holding any hopes for Selby, if he can get past round 2 I will be happy
Yep good work Paulio, it certainly is a tough one. Betting wise i have gone Robbo/Murphy and now Maguire after the draw
Trump is still the man to beat, literally anything can happen. Also it wouldn't surprise me if Ronnie has one last hurrah and several you cant discount. Maybe the most wide open or hardest to call in years? I am not expecting as many upsets first round as previous years 10 + Seeds will go through i reckon...
Also guys i know we normally do predictions, i am sorry but i am swamped and wont be able to keep on top of it this year. More than happy for someone else to take over, i know its a bit of fun so sorry for those that look forward to it.

I to won't be able to to take over this
The updates on the event plus with Q School running at the same time that I will be keeping an eye on.
Plus I do all this on a phone no laptop or computer to keep spreadsheets or anything, so would be to much work with everything else
Updates on Friday may not arrive for the morning session depending on finish time and not sure about after session either.
I have a funeral to attend on Friday so snooker will be the last thing on my mind
Ill keep an eye on it Friday and update if possible, as i said Paulio on FB appreciate everything you do here but dont feel obliged to update if you are busy or life gets in the way. Hope it all goes ok mate
I get where he is coming from to a point but he is moaning then down the bottom he says I had the opportunity to pull out but I didn't
So don't moan then, if you have decided to play then fair enough, don't go moaning about it now you have decided to play.
If he does lose early at least he will have his excuse ready 😆😆 oh I wasn't comfortable
Like he has a point, the players have to be heavily tested and all these measures yet they cant check someones temperature. Stupid decision from World Tour Snooker, Hamilton moaning about a mask i have asthma some masks will be better than others just deal with it like everyone has to at the moment.
Although i agree, not sure why he would come out to BBC and make it public, if he has agreed to play it should just suck it up or state his case privately. Its not an excuse if he loses, i assume he has an agenda by bringing it up with BBC (or whoever) they might be more likely to change it by making it public and the uproar.
ANTHONY HAMILTON HAS PULLED OUT OF THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS DUE TO HEALTH CONCERNS
what was the point in him going through Qualifiers just to pull out, he knew a crowd was gonna be there its been known for a couple of weeks about 300 people were gonna be let in
Sam Craigie and Scott Donaldson will be fuming lol
