Midnight finish allright rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl

He finished off things with a ton, so happy for him.

When Ebdon pulled it back to 6 all, thought he could actually win, but Dotty played superb from there onwards and duly deserved to win.

Tables don't look that tight, why so few tons so far? I think we've had 150ish frames played and only 7 tons....doesn't seem a great standard thus far.....opinions?

Hope Ding destroys him if he comes through his opener.


Think he's due payback for 2011 by the 2013 WC. Would be a shame if King got in the way of that.

Actually I think he would have a decent chance against Selby should he reach the quarters. But King against Robbo in the semis :gag: That would be 2010 all over again



baird v ronnie quarter

2008 all over again

By the time Selby gets to the quarters, he'll be playing well enough to flatten King.

He missed a sitter at 8-8 and he didn't use his chance after King let him off the hook at 9-8. 2 first round defeats in 2 years now and lets not forget he should have lost to Stevens in 2011. That's just not good enough for a player of his quality.


Absolutely, shoild have won this match something like 10-6, but credit to King who pulled off those terrific breaks in those last 4 frames he won.

Spoiled our chance to get a Ding v Allen 2nd round match at the Crucible.

Anyway, hope Ding at least wins against MacManus.

If Ding loses to MacManus he'll never win a World title.
