wasnt an easy one, but yeah should have got it.... maybe Willie is right... sometimes in those situations, a drag shot may be better..

The only problem is that in order to do that the white cant be touching the cushion, otherwise you can only strike the top of the ball

His matchplay is still working though. Amazing that he'll get at least a point out of this match.

Absolutely.... Even his Z game can beat some of the players on tour

Unlucky to get in the one place where it was physically impossible to get the rest in, although good chance that Higgins could win 4-2. Amazing.

Wins 4-2. Judging by the exhibition shots at the end, it's probably confidence problems plaguing him atm.

Think so too.. as I said before, what's missing in Higgins game is a big run in a ranking tourney and he can start get confidence back again..

Could start next week in Changhai, though I doubt it

True.

I'd start a thread asking if people think his form will return, but it'd only lead to people discussing the betting allegations again, so won't bother.

ask it in junkyard it will save sonny from putting it there

I wouldn't say that outright- Higgins reached the final in 2007, topped the table in 2009 as well so he does have some pedigree under the new rules. He was two points off the play-offs last year too

its in my job description to keep on top of fixtures lol

but i must admit i was more excited waiting for APTC Results coming through on twitter.

In to see Ebdon make a century.

Anyone been watching this? How has the match gone?

Allen wins 4-2 against Ebdon

And, when he missed a simple black, doing a Ebdon 2008 Grand Prix and lying down on the floor...

Ebdon started well going 1 nill, but then Allen's game got better, making some decent breaks, while Ebdon's safety got worse, catching balls too thin back to baulk...

Ebdon made that ton, but in the end Allen won the last frame, 4-2

Smurph vs Robbo time.

No way PL is part of a big 4 along with the three majors.

Who said that?

Andy idiot Head Goldstein

"is The World Championship,UK Championship,The Masters and The Premier League the Major Events to win"

buck off Andy

trying to sell rubbish as roses

Ah, well if he said it it obviously doesn't count. It's like that dizzy bird on ITV4 calling Power Snooker the future of snooker.

anyword on a Power Snooker event coming up btw?

Was actually thinking about that earlier today for some reason
