Baic Motor China Open Last 128, Wild Card Round and Last 64.

Ah...7:30 am...Monday moanin'...snooker will be long over by noon for me . ..hopefully it will be up on youtube quickly!

I was thinking about watching Batman and Superman later. Dunno if I can be fussed.

So,Island. Tell me about this Lee Walker. I don't really know my h about him?

This match is going to be rubbish. I might go to the pub.

Maybe he is.

Mate. This match is rubbish. I'm tempted to go and have a pint next door.

And again buckets. That red should have rattled at least. Silly how easily that dropped in.

I'm beginning to see how other people feel.

I usually don't care about rankings, if a player turns up in the day and wins, I salute them. I am all for the World Number 11 going out to the World ranked 76 if he's the better player on the day. But dammit, I like Ding. I hate to see him play so badly, that he's lose to players he shoudlnt.

Will Ding win this match?

There's some awfully boring / dull about this match. Mind you i've only got one eye on it on the laptop because i'm doing something else, but it feels like Crondon Park for some reason.

Hopefully Ding pulls through.

Laptop, hey. We know you're watching porn...

Ding, you bucking idiot.

He's best known for reaching the quarter-finals at the crucible, sometime in the '90s. But that's about the only noteworthy achievement for him - he never made any other quarter-finals before or since.
He's dropped off the tour a couple of times. He's 40 years-old now, the stereotypical 'journeyman'!

I can't help myself, but Ding looks like he is having burnout since last year.

So if Ding loses this he will definitely have to qualify for the WC or am I wrong?? Could someone explain?

If he loses, he'll have to rely on other results going his way.

I've only just remembered that Robbo has only been in one World Final. Came close in 2014 only to lose out to Selbs in the semis. I'd surprised if he didn't make, or even win, another one.

Ding has never been in one at all.

Selby has been in two.

Dott has been in three.

Jimmy White has been in six.

It's one match a year, the stats aren't always what you'd think.

I watch you everyday from up in a tree, so, yes.

Worst shot Ding has ever played?

Walker is going to bottle this.

Good pink.

Great win by Walker.

Ding. :(

TWITTER ATTACK!
