Well done Hawkins. Looking forward to the final tomorrow.

well done to the baz

AndyMuller · « **Reply #10482 on:** January 16, 2022, 01:13:09 pm »

Surely we all want Baz to win? The atmosphere was like the darts then, I’m going the semis in the crucible this year so I’m guessing it will be like that then too.

can tell it's final day because the beeb crew have got ties on

west_london_red · « **Reply #10484 on:** January 16, 2022, 03:51:38 pm »

Bazza can’t seem to score more then about 50 without cocking it up.

AndyMuller · « **Reply #10485 on:** January 16, 2022, 09:00:57 pm »

Robertson different level compared to Baz unfortunately.

west_london_red · « **Reply #10486 on:** January 16, 2022, 09:20:16 pm »

Better then his last Masters final but Bazza no where near good enough, made it way too easy for Robertson this evening.

some players are winners, and then there's barry hawkins.

There are some proper odd-bods that get down the front of the crowd aren’t there. Intense males.

Was that you hopping up and down in the yellow mate?

(Yeah was thinking the same last night, scary!)

So Robertson wins the final, threw him in acca when he lost the opening frame, anyway, besides McGill there isn't often any agro in the snooker, did anyone catch the winning frame? Robertson has cupped his ear to some bloke in the crowd and as far as I could read said "what you saying now... you've been on at me all night" potted another and I think said "have that".
Knew it wasn't done but interview time it was mentioned but the audience member had been ejected.

And now for the important stuff, Ken Doherty, he's got to be taken of comms, if you love him don't read on, keep him in the studio and interviews and all that palaver but off comms... he's a walking sinus, it's every bit of input, nasal clear little sigh/breath then talks. Hasn't learned to use the 'live' button on his mic.

Was heart broke for him with that final black*

Mad that Robertson has only won one World Championship. Infact that's the only time he's ever reached the final.

he's a good player and has made/will make a very good living out of the game, but he'll win fuck all of note.

Did you see Higgins earlier in the season losing another final (on the spin), trophy presentation interview, "I'm just not sure I've got it anymore". John, pull yourself together, it aint perfect but you've earned the most of anyone in this 10 weeks.

The standard of the best three or four is so high that it takes a miracle effort or a severe bad day at the office for one of the big hitters not to wrap up whichever trophy.

Hawkins snuck in an unlikely 16th in the world and snagged runner up. If that's a negative he's got real problems.

Not really, I think there have been about 8 or 9 tournament winners this season already. Which is a good thing.

Bingham made his 9th career 147 last Friday.
Monday Higgins fought back from 8-4 down to Zhou to win it 10-9. Quality.
Today Robertson was whooping Allen 7-0 who then dragged it back to 8-6 but it was a (snooker) bridge too far, and was wrapped up 10-6.
Today is O'Sullivan vs Williams. Heard a stat earlier, Williams has beaten Ron once in tournament play in the last twenty years.
Trump vs Brecel Thursday.

TheShanklyGates · « **Reply #10498 on:** March 30, 2022, 11:22:53 pm »

Incredible standard in the match between O'Sullivan and Williams. Ronnie takes it 10-9 after two highly tactical final frames.

Good game

shy_talk · « **Reply #10500 on:** March 30, 2022, 11:23:13 pm »

O'Sullivan, deserved it then didn't and has 'just' squeaked it.

Ron wins 10-9

5 centuries Ronnie.

Great game that. One of the best you will see.

I expect Trump to crucify Brecel tomorrow. Curse of the know nothing numpty...

Trump marmalized. Lucky to lose 10-6

voodoo ray · « **Reply #10504 on:** March 31, 2022, 09:46:34 pm »

Poor from trudd but will played brecel

shy_talk · « **Reply #10505 on:** March 31, 2022, 09:56:14 pm »

Some balls-up on the blue though. Thought the swipe-shot miss by Williams would get most odd award for crazy shot fail, but that by Brecel was comic.

Vintage Ronnie this.

4-4 Robertson v O 'Sullivan, brilliant session of snooker in all departments.

Ronnie 1 down then 4-1 up in a flash, but Roberton makes it 4-4.

sinnermichael · « **Reply #10508 on:** April 1, 2022, 10:36:55 pm »

O'Sullivan with ten centuries in the last 19 frames he's won. 9-8 up.

Shame Ronnie didn't get through but Robertson matched his excellent play and snuck through superbly. He will take some beating

The Domestic violence team dealt with it, so it appears it may have been his partner, throwing punches at her in public, so let’s hope she hasn’t been suffering from violence at home too...

Robertson just missed the last blue for a 147.

9-9
Final frame

sinnermichael · « **Reply #10518 on:** April 3, 2022, 11:21:35 pm »

Higgins was 8-3 and 9-4 up and cruising.
