SamL Posted 21 April 2008 Posted 21 April 2008 It's quality in the fact that it is humorous (both players would get crucified by O'Sullivan), and I also want Steve to win. It's certainly entertaining. Once Selby gets into his stride, I think he'll be in with a shout of winning it. First frame today, he was immense. You can easily see the great confidence he's playing with at the moment.
isaidno Posted 21 April 2008 Author Posted 21 April 2008 I get at least 5 frames tommorrow, it's going to be a close finish. I'm glad I didn't pick the Williams match. I think I'll be the only fan without a pacemaker & a walking stick
Raj Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 I bet fiver on Selby to win (11/2)and 2 squid E/W on Ebdon at 25/1 If Selby wins he plays Ebdon next Cheers!
Manwell Pablo Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 Selby looking awful, improvement needed. EDIT: His games evaporated this morning, if he doesn't sort it out he's going out.
Geo V Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 Selby looking awful, improvement needed.EDIT: His games evaporated this morning, if he doesn't sort it out he's going out. Lost all 4 frames this morning. He looks on the way out and I was going to back him for an unlikely comeback (losing 8-5) but at odds of 5/2, no thanks.

He's going to have to sort himself out over the mid session though otherwise it's good night.

He is capable alright hence looking at the odds but having to win 5 out of 7 is a tough ask and 5/2 is pi$$ poor odds. At 5s I would take a gamble so I`ll be searching for better odds as I type.
SamL Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 It'll be tough for him but I think he'll win. He's 54-4 up at the moment, come on Selby.
Manwell Pablo Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 Bit more like it, made a mistake but made up for it with an absloutley impecable safety shot. Which actually turned out to be a snooker.
SamL Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 Some of Selby's play is very good. If he can be a little more consistent he'll be fine hopefully.
Uncle Albert Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 9-7 King. In the 18th Frame now and down to the last 3 colours with the score at 48 Selby and 27 King. So King needs a snooker. EDIT: Selby has won the frame! 9-8 Come on Mark!
Manwell Pablo Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 Next games due to start in 45 minutes 9-8. Whatever happens it's been an engaging game of snooker.
SamL Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 Selby is OUT! Shame really, I felt this could have been his year. He struggled for consistency throughout. Some of his play was breathtaking but some of it was very sluggish. Good luck to Mark King in the next round.

SamL Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 He was never going to win it this year.Fook Mark King, he is 1st Prize Bellend. Considering he got to the final last year, I thought he was in with a chance. Some of his play was very impressive. We'll never know now just how far he could have progressed. What makes you say that?

SamL Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 What he said about Ronnie O'Sullivan. And having a boxing fight with another snooker player.Say no more. Thats a fair point, can't disagree with that. I don't particularly like him but I think he's played some good snooker so far.
Manwell Pablo Posted 22 April 2008 Posted 22 April 2008 Thats a fair point, can't disagree with that. I don't particularly like him but I think he's played some good snooker so far. Nah he's played some adequate snooker. Selby was just garbage for the first 4 frames this morning and handed him a three frame lead.
isaidno Posted 22 April 2008 Author Posted 22 April 2008 King deserved to win , Great value for money, £12 for 9 frames
isaidno Posted 23 April 2008 Author Posted 23 April 2008 Another seed gone, Dott out, Doherty loosing aswell
SamL Posted 23 April 2008 Posted 23 April 2008 King deserved to win , Great value for money, £12 for 9 frames Worth going then? I'm definitely going to go next year. Did you wear you City shirt in the end?
