Not surprised usually stops when each round is on lol.

I shoved a quid on Georgiou at 20s before last 16 started.

Nice start for you with Yong going through

johnnybev1987

Now ballrun for full house this round. Would like them all to avoid each other until late as possible

Calling it Williams v Bingham final

paulie8290

The Integrity of Snooker at its best, all this diving(cheating in football)

Barry Hawkins has just lost his match after calling a foul on himself, now you may say its just a stupid tournement that he doesnt care about.
But now he lost he will not be defending his Grand Prix title that he won last year(he had to get to the final of the Shootout to book his place in the event he won a year ago

Standard in snooker/pool imo and Hawkins benefited from someone else doing the same earlier vs Davies. I see it when we play pool alot but still get people who cheat not like football though thats a different level

paulie8290

FUCK

johnnybev1987

Close this one blue ball shootout. Last nights i got highlights was class

johnnybev1987

Unlucky Paulie cracking frame that williams got 50 in like 2mins 20

2 poor safety shots which is so unlike Williams.

1st one gave Perry the opening break
2nd to leave the blue ball pottable with 20 seconds left was unforgivable.

Still nothing ever goes my way so i am not surprised

paulie8290

So the last 8 in ranking order

Joe Perry (21)
Graeme Dott (25)
Mark Davis (41)

Cao Yupeng (56)
Michael Georgiou (73)
Suni Akani (79)
Martin O'Donnell (92)
Zhang Yong (96)

So out of the remaining 8 5 players are ranked below 50

johnnybev1987

Bingham threw this one away.
2 in last 8 not the worst odds but less likely

paulie8290

Quarter final draw

Martin O'Donnell (92) v Suni Akani (79)
Graeme Dott (25) v Cao Yupeng (56)
Mark Davis (41) v Joe Perry (21)
Michael Georgiou (73) v Zhang Yong (96)

paulie8290

My tip for the semi
Akani
Dott
Davis
Georgiou

paulie8290

Before yesterday there had been 1 blue ball shootout in the history of the snooker shootout

There has been 3 this weekend

paulie8290

The final 4

Graeme Dott (25)
Mark Davis (41)
Michael Georgiou (73)
Martin O'Donnell (92)

Semi final draw will be interesting

Will we have a lower ranked player in the final

Or will it be the 2 old pros who make it through

paulie8290

@johnnybev1987 has lost his 3 players
@WelshAddick has lost his 3 players

I have 1 of my 2 left

Come on Georgiou

johnnybev1987

Tough draw that one for both Dott playing superb as is Georgiou top break there 109

Tough one to call now as has been all thr way through.

paulie8290

Semi final draw

Michael Georgiou (73) v Martin O'Donnell (92)
Mark Davis (41) v Graeme Dott (25)

paulie8290

Michael Georgiou the first man into the final

paulie8290

Graeme Dott joins Michael Georgiou in the final

A side note Michael Georgiou who started the weekend 64th on the 1 year ranking list(which is what the Grand Prix uses) if he wins he will go into the top 32 and be in the event at Preston

paulie8290

Michael Georgiou world number 73 is Snooker Shootout champion

paulie8290

What a final frame

johnnybev1987

What a bloody final, Georgio is now in the masters played quality today!
7 frames / <70 minutes = ranking event winner and £32k richer
