Snooker

[The Bear]

He was rubbish and went 4-0 down. He missed one red in the middle by a fair way that pretty much all club players would have potted.

 

[The Bear]

Ronnie 3-0 down to Maguire too.

I still think this could be Ding's year.

 

[The Bear]

Selby out 10-4 then. And Ronnie losing 6-3 overnight.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Selby out 10-4 then.

Excellent

 

[Trips]

Ronnie has pulled it back to 7-7 this morning

 

[The Bear]

Wins 10-7. He had a lot of run of the ball in that last session. Maguire a bit unlucky.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Murphy gone first round, 10-9 to Jamie Jones.

 

[Trips]

That's Selby and Murphy gone from that quarter of the draw - opening up for someone (possibly Allen) to have a run at it

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I'd like Brecel to really make a mark this year. We desperately need some young players making a proper impact on big events and I'm rapidly losing patience with Judd, the fucking waster.

No such luck, done 10-6 by Ricky Walden.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

McGill vs Day is the worst match I've ever seen. Laughably bad.

McGill vs Day is the worst match I've ever seen. Laughably bad.

Hard to believe but Robertson vs Milkins was worse than this yesterday. The first two frames of the session took an hour and a half, and it wasn't down to superb tactical play, it was just a bad club standard match.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Sounds grim. I've not seen much of the Worlds this year, but the bits I have seen, the standard has been generally poor.

 

[The Bear]

Milkins is rubbish too. Robertson really shit the bed there.

 

[Trips]

Ronnie looking in the groove this morning, fantastic 121 clearance on frame 2

 

[FrankMunro-371]

O'Sullivan all over the place so far this evening, missing pots he could normally get with his eyes shut.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Ronnie out. Fair play Ali Carter. He's my favourite to win now. Played some lovely stuff.

 

[The Bear]

Ding is still my pick. Followed by Kyren Wilson as an outsider.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

6 frames out of 7 now for Higgins. On a serious roll. This would be some comeback from where he was this afternoon.

 

[Trips]

14-7 at one point this afternoon wasn't it?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Yep, at the interval. There was a possibility it could have been done and dusted this afternoon. He looked gone.

Won seven out of eight now. Could be a classic finish.
