That's 2 fairly sweet plants I can remember ROS playing, one last session and one in this session. Not just potting them but position off them.
I always think all plants look easy on a TV screen, but when you try them when they're even slightly off set IRL, they're tough stuff!

If Gilbert played like this normally he wouldn't have to qualify.

I take 8-5 all day, they would have split this mini-session 2.2.
Gilbert playing ever so well, great match, Ronnie with 96% and Gilbert 94% pot sucess rates.

Yes Day responded well from 2-0 down.
Hopefully he can send John packing like 08.

Agreed. Very enjoyable match, the standard is sky high. Gilbert's play has probably exceeded anyone's expectations. Pleased for him.

Ronnie with business like performance, just doing what it takes to win it.
Hope he wins 10-5 now, predicts.

That applies more to a certain Mark Allen.

Ah, Ronnie's turn for a bit of bad luck after going into the pack. Hit the pink plum, but little nudge on the red sent the white to the corner.

Believe it or not, last time Ronnie had such a tough opening round match here was in 2010, beating Liang Wenbo then 10-7.

Reminds me of the Gray match in 2000. O'Sullivan playing near his best but not being able to shake off a stubborn opponent.

Gilbert playing out of his skin, he really is. Great performance.
If Ronnie wins does anyone know when his next match would be? And that the moment it's only an if.
