Betfred World Championship (Wed April 20th) Last 32 !!

I genuinely didn't know the Allen / Evans thing. Which is amazing to say how much I study this sport. My mind is officially blown.

Next you'll be telling me the Nugget went out with Tabby!

He's very shouty and annoying. And he struggled to hit 50s as a 'pro'.

You should hang your head in shame. Even I knew and I don't even follow the snooker that closely.

'He plays the game the right way' - He makes it easy for opponents to beat him.

'We all like to see a century break' - Not really, as soon as the frame is safe you may as well set the balls up.

HAHAHA laughing out loud here :)

Didn't Mark Williams used to get 80+ then just push the ball to the cushion?

Yes. He has had more 83 breaks than anyone in snooker history, and by some margin!

Didn't he do this weird thing once, where he won a match and ran into the crowd so Reanne in the front row could rub his head?

He ran? I don't believe you.

Willie Thorne does that sometimes. Goes off on one at somebody for not playing a style he sees as acceptable.

Pack-Master Willie. No one knows how to split a bunch like Willie does.

You'd think they'd leave that stuff to the bedroom.

Early body blow for Gouldy if Ding steals this.

Disgusting kick that has cost Ding Junhui the frame on the final black.

That would have been a steal.

Hehe. I saw him and Hawkins play at the masters this year (snuck in after watching Ronnie / Selbs) and they were quite an odd site - Bazza is like a bean pole and Allen is... other

Allen is simply like a bean.

"other". Interesting way of describing someone's body shape.

Not surprised anymore when some of these balls go in now. That red just now was disgusting.

Dan likes to be politically correct.

Did you really sneak in? What without paying?

Yes. It was a cinch. We waited till the absolute last minute in the bar, then as the final stragglers were going in we pelted to the entrance, waving our afternoon session tickets in the air, expressing an air of panic, and the security guard just waved us through and said 'same seats lads? quickly!' and showed us into the arena!

We been planning it for a while in the bar, several pints in, and just decided to do it for sh*ts and giggles.

Non-judgemental rather than PC. :)

Allen wins 10 - 3 - a drubbing by any standards! Didn't watch any, was Allen on form or...?

And Gould keeps on gifting Ding practice tables.

Mitchell said in his press that he lost confidence in his game after throwing away that good start that he had, then Allen pushed on from there.

Allen made breaks ooooffffff.. 74, 64, 104, 85, 78, 67 and 67. Good enough standard from the looks of it.

As mentioned, Choker Gould has poked his nose into the arena.

For a man playing alone, he did average.

Yup. Ding goes 4 -1
