    So a repeat of last years final which Trump won 9-7
    An exact repeat of last years final


  • That was the table on Selbys shot and it was the red along the cushion he debated playing, if he missed it he would have left it over the pocket, other 4 reds open and easy go get onto the black with and would have lost the frame and match


    I disagree Paulie, a shot should never take 6 minutes. Regardless of whether his average was still reasonable that is a joke.

    Firstly look at that table I could instantly play the right middle closest ball, if attacking. If not play of the red on the right and go up for a safety. It's not even that tricky, I understand he can leave one on but he played it long in the end which just shows he was too indecisive which cant have helped. Ronnie has hit a 147 quicker than that :)

    I like Selby but 6minutes for one shot lol that's terrible for the game.

    For balance I generally play as quick as Ronnie anyway both at snooker and pool, even when I feel like ive taken a while before I've watched back and its still only an extra 5 seconds lol

  • Cheers Paulie!

    Cahill another good win in the first, seems to rise to the occasion in these so called ' top events' , obviously beating Ronnie recently and Selby last year?

    Brecel dipped again, he got his act together around a season ago but cant seem to get anything going again.

    Did the UK used to be longer races? or have I imagined it, I prefer the longer format personally but at least race to 6 isn't too short... I know they shortened it years ago but I cant remember when.

    Ronnie O'Sullivan really is a C**t

    14 reds
    14 blacks

    Pots the last red and plays for the pink, thankfully he missed the pink when on the colours and finished on 133
  • I don't like Ronnie either, but to be fair, Barry Hearn has given the players no incentive to go for the maximum this season.  I get the 'do it for the crowd' argument, but I dont blame the top players for being pissed off

    I get that the players are pissed off, but they still go for it.

    Bingham and Hawkins have got one recently and Trump was close 2 weeks ago
