World Championship (Tues 24th of April) Round 1 Disscusion !

That 17 should be enough for Perry to take a 6-0 lead!!!

And I think it's time players like Jamie Jones and and Cao Yupeng get into the top 16 and someone has to go obviously.

Jones I'll give you, been on the cards for a few years, but were you really saying that about Cao before about 3 days ago?



Certainly time for some new faces in the Top 16 though, a few hyped young players have fallen away recently, Cope, Liang, Walden all reaching the 16 then dropping out. Gould has got there now but not sure he is in the same ones to watch bracket.

Peter Ebdon played vintage snooker yesterday compared to Dott "performance"

I am pleased it is against a player I like so its not too distressing

Dott's in!!!

Come out at 6-3 down he still has a chance.

That shot sums it all up

6-0

Chance for 7-0

Last chance for Dott in this match I feel

Perry must feel like he won the lottery at the moment.

Perry is starting to play as badly as Dott.

Am back. Has Dott been playing this badly for the entire match?

Sounds like Judd had food poisoning, but Dale hasn't been able to take advantage and is only 5-4. Ronnie finished Ebdon off, predictably. Ebdon always seems to do the opposite of what I predict him to do.

How did Day and Ding play?

Graeme Dott 0-6 Joe Perry
Ronnie O'Sullivan 10-4 Peter Ebdon

Quite a good match. Junhui missed some shots he wouldn't usually and Ryan has taken his chances overall.

Is snooky posting?

10-0 coming up

Bloody hell that was awful from Dott. His highest break must be 10 or something.

7-0. Guess there has to be an off day after the three good first days.

Truly awful

Maguire must be shaking in his boots watching this match.

Pot success at 66%

You never know. Dott might pull this back...

A nice break of 9 from Dott there....

Snooky dont play against him again lol

Maguire was no better than Perry is playing.

it would have been better if he had pulled the dovet back over him this morning and stayed in bed

He was. He made a few carleess shots, but nowhere near as many as Perry and made a few good breaks yesterday.
