Exactly what message does that send to Hearn?
Can you sort a few signings out for me as my new book has bombed?

Hes been deep in a lot of events this season so saving some mental energy now will only help for the big one.
He went deep in all but the welsh post Christmas last season and we know what happeneded then at Sheffield.
a Few Hammerings and he will be going to Sheffield without any confidence.

Just looking at the impact this has on the draw, there's a good chance for Lawler, Davison or Tian to make the quarters now, and Mags has to be the favourite to make through this quarter and into the semis.

From what I saw on livescores, it looked like Tian made some decent breaks early on, but it wasn't televised/on a stream so

I agree with you. You are indeed deluded. Robbo will either lose in the first round of the world championship yet again or he will be bitch-slapped by O'Sullivan later in the tournament.

Laugh now but you will be sobbing when your hero is punished again by someone like Milky.

Think who ever wants to win the WC has to beat ronnie along the way.
when his mind is on like at the masters then he is unstoppable.
think by the time of the uk he had to deal with off table stuff so coulndt really play his best. to be fair he struggled his way till the QF

thought barry is a good player under pressure after his run to the wc final by beating selby and walden.
but his losses against selby at the uk, against judd last masters and walden at this master say that he is a bottler and choker

Xiao wins 5-4 against Poomjaeng.
Just the Lawler match remaining
Will they be asked to finish their match later if it's still going by 7 p.m? Wouldn't surprise me.

BIG YAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWN!!.
Give us break ffs!,almost every time Ronnie loses it,s cause he was,nt with it,had this problem,that problem,poor old Ronnie,he,s the only person in our BIG wide world who has problems and things to deal with off the table!!.
Just accept that he does actually lose cause he was outplayed,played bad.
