I didn't say Robbo is as slow as Ebdon nobody expect Rory McLeod is that slow but still he isn't doing himself a favour by not trying to speed things up.

To be fair he has been trying, but he has to get a chance first. He's been safety battles for 80% of the match.

I think he has been playing way too many containing safeties. Also he messed up some of his chances when he was in, OK going off after the plant was unlucky but he also didn't get position on the intended red.
Anyway Robbo in trouble now.

they suckers for punishment. I got so frustrated with watching Lian Wenbo I upped and left front row, no boring runt grinds the buck out of my time, I can take it or leave it
I would happily sell my ticket if I was unfortunate enough to get Robbo/Ebbo at Crucible

I think that's just Robbo's style. Meanwhile Ebdon has a chance now.

Not much. He isn't looking sharp not just his game it starts right on his head.

Mark Williams way of playing that Pot would be to leave the white on the side cushing then give acuracy a chance qnd a chance on the green or brown.

hasn't the game been great without Ebdon doing well? I know he's entitled to play his own way but dear me.
Meanwhile Joe Johnson has just informed us that Ebdon's just "knocked one out".

Maybe that's how he gets through matches like these.

When was Ebdon's last semi final? World Open 2010?
Anyway, chance for Robbo after Ebdon misses a red into the left centre.

If Ebdon wins, Stephen Lee will be the only player left in it who hasn't won the China Open yet.

Very well done Ebdon, I didn't think he could do it but he grinded out the 2011 and 2010 World Champion in succession.

How do people see his match with Ding going? I personally think that Ding should have too much, but I think he'd be more susceptible to grinding than Robbo was.

Maybe he'll grind out the 2012 and 2013 Champs as well
