Has she really just said "the tension is really ratcheting up" at 17-11? Fuck me this has been really bad, so many errors and poor choices.

Its the first Ive watched tonight, not watched snooker in many years, you snooker fans will probably jump on me but the quality looks really poor compared to past eras to me, so many unforced errors.

It's an anomaly of a tournament tbh, just weird stuff happening and no one playing well

Also depends what eras you're referring to, watch some 80s stuff back and it's really low scoring, and there was a reason why Hendry walked it all the way through the 90s.

The right winner in the end, won't go down as a vintage final or tournament but a World title is a World title.

Jones into the top 16 from no 44 a fortnight ago.

Yeah that's mad. All because it's based on money earned from the last 2 years.

Gilbert up to 22 (15 on the one year list), good progress and he can definitely look to move into the top 16 later this year.

In sad news Dene O'Kane has died, only 61. Was a good player in the late 80s/early 90s.

Gone early on the April Fools Day bantz if it isn't.

He deleted a tweet about it earlier.
The extra ball can only be potted if you make a 147. Then you get a chance to get a 167. A dream break no one thought was possible

Higgins nearly got the 167 yesterday - but finished about 2mm away from the yellow after 15 reds/blacks. Half a million quid if he'd have made it.

The seats were 80% empty and people were literally walking around as he was playing ffs

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Think you were watching a repeat

It wasn't yesterday, it was 3 months ago.

Only place to put this I suppose, I’m a massive fan, along with my Wife of Pool, the nine ball World Championship starts tomorrow on Sky, I’ll be recording it and watching it every night for most of next week.
