meanmistermustard Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Shot of the Championship Murphy's pot off two cushions with ridiculous amounts of side v Ronnie was incredible but I'd go with Selby's screw off two cushions into the pack v Ding due to the match being the semi-final. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has Willie Thorne resumed filming his homeless documentary as he's not been heard for three sessions now? Look what you did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meanmistermustard Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 The joy of having Hendry back in the commentary box is immediately dissipated by the reemergence of Willie Thorne. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Since they mentioned it in the interval I just watched O'Sullivan's five minute 147. Taylor and Virgo commentary. Twenty-plus years of their shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis still hasn't told us of Bill Werbeniuk ripping his trousers whilst playing a shot, this would be the first time since the incident occurred that he hasn't. Presumably, we get that delight in the final session. Selby level at 11-11. Can only see him winning it now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilly Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) Lovely afternoon session that. Selby will see it out from here with relative ease. Pleasing. Edited May 1, 2017 by Neilly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
printer Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Selby looking like the best player in the world, which he comfortably is. Hopefully Higgins can get back at him a bit in the last session to make it dramatic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandarilla Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I don't really think he has in this match. Hendry summed it up well when he described selby as 'on the prowl'. Yesterday he looked very flat and Higgins grew in confidence and took advantage. Higgins really, really up against it now. Does he have the mental strength (at this stage in his career) to find the form required? Selby had a few good slices of luck at the start of the session so it would be nice if lady luck favoured Higgins at the start tonight and created a tight finish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 After about an hour in a queue I've got myself two tickets for next year's event. Only round one and we look miles from the table but still a first for me and already looking forward to it! [emoji4]Ding, please! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Not that I could have cashed out, but wished I'd put my house on Selby to lay my Higgins bet. Incidentally, has anyone tried to explain snooker to a foreigner? It's a tough sell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't put up with that. I went to the Scottish Open in Glasgow last year which was good as you can walk about and watch who you want. Managed to see O'Sullivan, Higgins, Williams, Trump and a whole load of others. Even saw Jimmy White win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Higgins 16-13 down in a World Championship final, getting absolutely scudded, pots three reds and Dennis Taylor puts up the break counting graphic. Get to f**k you senile old c**t, where do you think his priorities are right now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was December last year at the Emirates Arena up in Parkhead. Tickets were very cheap. Selby and Ding didn't bother turning up but I think everyone else you'd care about did. Higgins on a bit of a comeback, 16 -14 now, and Taylor has an erection and is thoroughly enjoying it.

Bully Wee Villa Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 December is a bit rubbish. Will be skint then and don't like travelling up for games when there is a likelihood of postponements, as I usually like to book travel and accommodation in advance. I think there may be an event in Coventry I might check out if I enjoy myself at the Crucible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
