Allen's game is much more suited to Ronnie's game than Dott's. But Ronnie is not through yet <ok>

To be honest as a Ronnie fan I would be just happy for Ronnie to be in the semi so couldnt give a monkey's who he played. That said if he turns up in the mood he was in yesterday then he is going home. That is my biggest concern.

We need a session of vintage O'Sullivan this afternoon because if it goes close I will fancy Selby.

Speaking of Hendry, has anyone esle noted in both his defeats this season to Selby Hendry has been Ronnieesque. In other words no real praise of Selby.

I know Stephen has never been the most gracious loser but I'm starting to wonder about "The Jesters" popularity amongst fellow players

They shared a few quips in the first session, laughing and smiling in the first few frames.

Although Hendry gave a great look to Selby when he was getting on all weird when he had a dolly black to pot.

However I would say that they seem to get on well.

Dott suffered from being in a poor final, having a squeky voice and beating O'Sullivan, thats why his no nothing critics hammered him. Anyone with any semblence of snooker knowledge knew what a fine player he was.

That said he does seem more likable these days. <ok>

at this stage descent breaks isnt import its potting pressure balls at the right time and making important clearances....

Mark Allen has ticked all the boxes so far.

I think there is something that rubs the other players up the wrong way..... my gut feeling is that they do not like his cheesy "non-funny" interaction with the crowd. <ok>

I do not like fist pumping or "come on" from any player - that remains FACT. :wave:

However, he's praised Ronnie on a number of occasions.
