More Hassle but he potted some Pressure balls that must give him confident

By that point I'd seen eight sessions and was a bit snookered out.

I left pretty quickly after Robertson finished, as I'd seen 60 frames by then...

I got a pint from the Old Monk, watched a couple of frames of Ding, ran into Roland, then went back to my hotel to carry on drinking, half watching snooker and striking out in my attempt to flirt with the barmaid.

Let's not go that far. He did just win a Rankin event in February, and is playing slightly better than he was.

Might as well go for one more.season, see what he can do?


It's John Higgins we're talking here. A massive player. That ranker means nothing, it was just a fluke. Playing slighlty better than crap doesn't suit his greatness IMO.

The first time I ran into Monique, I walked up to her and went; 'Want to take my photo?'. She didn't recognise me. I think she thought I was some perv.

So what?


I think the implication that the play was good enough that one player was able to freeze the other when winning the frame, not in bits and pieces like this session is.

Hes all over the place at the moment
