World Championship (Wed 25th of April) Round 1 Disscussion !

Dammit! I had to sit watching Murphy's shitty play over the weekend, and sounds like I am missing one of the most dramatic matches of the tournament so far.

:grrr:

I can't believe this. Ding bottled the match, there is no other word for it.

Look at this prediction of mine from before the tournament started.....

Was going to predict an upset, just because I haven’t predicted many qualifiers to go through and I have a funny feeling about this one. But I can’t do it. I just can’t bring myself to believe Ryan Day will beat Ding. Ding has previously struggled here, but he got over those jitters last year.
A sixth sense is pegging at me; “Ryan Day may win this”. But it just can’t bring myself to predict it. No matter how much pressure Ding will be under from his countrymen to become China’s World Champion.
Prediction: Ding Junhui 10 - 5

Another seeds goes out and yet another ranking event winner is gone.

Unreal! Makes Allen's defeat even more crushing.

What a miss that was from Ding. I have only seen Stevens bottle a shot like this in a decider.

Sounds like I missed the match of the tournament there.

Though Higgins vs Liang was a cracker.

I think Selby will go out too tonight. Maybe Williams also, perhaps even Trump.

Terrible miss but I don't know why he didn't play a red into the other pocket. He wouldn't have needed the rest.

One of the most surprising results so far.
