I love Jim Wych. Touch of the Sid Waddell’s about his commentary.

He did commentate with Sid on a lot of the early noughties Sky 9-ball coverage; it was a quality pairing...

Jim Wych is a great pool commentator, he has that unique voice, he is the pool commentator version of John Virgo. The only pool tournament I ever really follow is the Mosconi cup.

I went to that once, at Bethnal Green Hall in London, must have been around 2013 - I won tickets from a Matchroom comp! Met Michaela Tabb
She was a darling actually. Me and my mate Jon wanted a photo with her and we were both so excited - she said 'You two are easily pleased!'
