It's a frame you'd see down a club. The standard has been atrocious.

Lisowski.

Not happy Selby lost but would be good to see Jack have a run I suppose. And looks like both my picks for the final are out on the first day

Then maybe you just watched that last frame, cause the standard in that match was pretty good, and that frame wasn't even near as bad as you say it has.

Very happy for Jack maybe this could be his breakthorugh as the commentator in liveworldsnooker.tv said, though this tourney still is very much like a european ptc, best of 7. When Jack can finally win a match in a longer format against a top player, then that will certainly be his breakthrough I reckon.

Neverthelss, a great win for him against the world number 2, and will now play Tom Ford in the Last 16.

That was a good match with a rubbish decider.

The race for end of season WN1 is now even more interesting after selbys loss to jack

judd has the most to drop off from 2011 worlds so its game on between the top 3

Nice to see Jack doing so well, just the confidence boost he needed before the WC qualifiers.

Also, a big match for Ali carter tonight. In 16th place on the ranking list he would have to qualify, as a finalist last year that would be a nightmare situation for him.

Hendry is probably valued greatest snooker player by far in America because he has been credited inventing (and doing it so well) splitting the pack off the blue in the 90s. Since America is a 9ball - mad country and 9ball has the beauty and difficulty of the opening pack splitting shot..

I remember years ago someone was claiming at the BBC messaboards that 9ball and 8ball are just about whacking the opening shot as hard as can. Obviously it is true that pro level it has very much influence who wins the frame, but I would argue it is a strenght of those games, particularly with 9ball. Top players loves the challenge of that opening pack splitting shot.

Slightly out of topic, but like you wrote there can be so many different kinds of interesting frames

Did anybody else see on the news yesterday that the Athletics track in Sheffield were Jess Ennis trains is being shut down and replaced with a new sports facility? The new facility is to cater for rugby, soccer, athletics and...snooker!

I wonder is this the new home of the WC?

Mark Allen beat Mark Davis 13-5 in the Last 16 of the 2010 World Championship that included a 146 Break for Allen.

doesn't look good for Davis

Does that count towards their head to head?

on cuetracker site yes

what i do know in Steve Davis Record haul of tournament wins 4 pot black titles count despite they being one frame knockouts.

It works both ways.

Stephen Hendry in 2009 won the Legends of Snooker event where he only played washed up has-beens and old relics from a bygone era and yet that event still counts towards his victory haul.

did i say it didnt

and Ronnie won shitty shot clock PL and they count as well

get it wrong and the whole atmosphere of the WC will be ruined

Rod Lawler 3-1 Cao Yupeng
