Come on Robbo, pull your finger out and beat the traitor.

What's happening in the Selby match? It's torturous watching live scoring and not seeing how the balls are lying. rubbish, Ding's on a break of 1. Is this the end?

Im off out i assume ebdon will finish the job as he is no choker so hear are my thoughts on the match

Hard luck robbo

Well done ebdon a real gentleman of the game and this will boost his chances of staying in the top 16 <ok>

Its a mystery why robbo struggles in china he has never reached the quarters :chin:

Anyway

Bring on the worlds

147 <cool>

obviously he got distracted after the 147

and this stage last year murphy beat robbo 5-1 and robbo still got to the semi's at the worlds so this will have no bearing on the worlds :ahh:

Disappointing that Selby is resorting to slowing the game down after Ding's miss in the last frame, blatant gamesmanship.

Ding is now taking a long time over a shot too. Is that gamesmanship then?

You think it didn't rattle Ding, you're naive !

Ebdon wins again. Hopefully he burns himself out again before the World Championships like last year. Jamie Cope will be dropping to 17th if Ebdon reaches the semis.

Did I say anything of the kind? :chin:
But it is the end for Mark.

Bloody hell! I hate live scoring. It's so frustrating, you see the ticker move from one play to the other and you haven't got a clue what's going on, and everytime someone scores it's Ding. I thought Selby had the better safety game of the two. Bah

They have already played in a final in China this season at the Jiangsu Classic which Allen won 6-0.

Alas they are in the same half of the draw

I thought Selby's safety game was so scrappy today, very surprised. But am I complaining ?!

i think Allen has a good chance of winning this week but he has to get through Hendry and from what i saw on Live Hendry was scoring well and limiting chances for Day.so if he keep that up Allen has problams.

5-0 for Hendry . Guess that guarentees his top 16 place for next season ? Williams finding good form at just the right time too while Selby wasn't too hot . Looks like this years WC are going to be a classic
