EastAnglianFox Posted 15 January 2019 Posted 15 January 2019 Always enjoy this tournement, top 16 going at it with a quick turn around. Not seen every session but Allen v Brecel was a great watch first up, Higgins out and now Williams beat earlier ( missed an absolute sitter of Brown to go 4-1 up) Not seen Selby play for a while, should be a favourite against Maguire tomorrow??
Nalis Posted 15 January 2019 Posted 15 January 2019 Oddly enough with tonights match, only time I've been in person was to watch Hawkins vs Murphy. Hawkins was leading 5-0 at one stage and I think it was a Tues night too. Bit of a strange coincidence.
Ian W LCFC Posted 16 January 2019 Posted 16 January 2019 Selby hasn't won a match on the BBC for absolutely ages. Maguire looked quite good when I watched him a few months back, think it was the UK? So its not a dead cert. I had a £5 free bet from Ladbrokes, so put it on a 'century in every match of the tournament' at 33/1. First 6 games and its still going

Ian W LCFC Posted 16 January 2019 Posted 16 January 2019 Brilliant stuff from Selby so far, 3-1 up with 2 centuries and a 95 break! My bet is looking good!

walkerleeds Posted 17 January 2019 Posted 17 January 2019 My God Ronnie's matches are absolutely unbearable with the sound on. Blokes screaming over every single shot like he's won the world champs. Embarrassing

Embarrassing Yeah, always been a problem here unfortunately, cant remember the year but in one final was genuinely concerned about Selby's safety such was the stupidity of some Ronnie fanboys, was literally like they had been allowed beer for the first time.
Ian W LCFC Posted 18 January 2019 Posted 18 January 2019 Selby vs Trump should be brilliant. Tough one to call but I reckon Selby to win 6-4
Nalis Posted 18 January 2019 Posted 18 January 2019 Ding got away with it a little last night but nervy play can make for great drama. Starting to believe he'll never win a World Championship despite his talent.

String fellow Posted 18 January 2019 Posted 18 January 2019 I was really pleased that Ding beat Brecel for several reasons. 1. Ding played like a true sportsman, declaring his own foul when feathering the cue ball. 2. Brecel played a clear push shot, which the tv guys spotted, and even predicted. Brecel must have felt the heaviness of the shot, but said nothing. 3. One of Brecel's frames was won on a technicality, the 3 misses rule. As regards Selby, he's becoming as inconsistent as our favourite football team.
Ian W LCFC Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 Well, my bets off. No century between Hawkins and Robertson. I'd love to see Trump win the whole thing.

Hard lines, did think if there was going to be a game to screw you over, that was it. Cant see there not being a century in both semis and final. Unlucky.

RODNEY FERNIO Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 Ding being systematically shredded by the best player ever.
Collymore Posted 19 January 2019 Posted 19 January 2019 WOW! What an attempt at 147 by Ding! Would have been the second best in all time I think, after Ronnie's record breaking fast one...
