Duly warned.
I know how much you hate bad language.

How is Holt playing so far? Anywhere near his standard from the first round?

Good to go 4-1 up, MJW ground out a 4-4 session, MJW has been better this session so far, but Holt will still get out 6-6 at MSI.

Maybe but he's got a license to thrill now so he's still dangerous. If he comes out firing, he may get two and things are back in the mixer. Did you notice anything about the chevrons on the close up of McGills safety?

Williams pot percentage in the first session was 81% that will always give Holt a chance to keep close but if Mark lifts his game Holt has problams

Thanks.
I watched some of the Selby v Baird match. Are you optimistic Mark will win this? And if he does progress how likely is it he'll kick into gear? He looked quite beatable so far.

If I knew when Selby kicked into gear, he won't be so nerve wracking to watch.
I think Selby will beat Baird because he has before and both times Baird got twitchy when ahead.

when he sees ronnie at the other side of the chair he is up for it. he struggle to reach the semis but he will reach them. and if he meets ronnie he will play 150 % of his capability.
the welsh and masters are no barometers for the WC. selby won the two WC encounters vs ronnie. and he knows how to limit the damage in one session when things arent going well.

theres so many frames and sessions in this event if your in it long enough you can play yourself in to form.
Selby could do that because he has the credentials and history to call on.

Holty is still battling.
He has got it back to 6-6 against Williams.
Williams won five in a row from 1-4 down but he is not winning frames in single visits. He is scrapping away and not playing that well.

I'm thinking SF's constant off-topic drivel is actually more offensive. How can anyone really get upset at the 'R' word? It's not classed as swearing, insulting maybe, if said the wrong way. Language control:
1984!Orwell was clearly right about the abuse of power.

Yes, I think Selby will beat Baird, even though Baird is scoring better when in the balls.
But he is a shadow of the player from a few seasons ago. I can see him taking a big beating - either from Allen / Wilson or from O'Sullivan.

If you go into your settings and jiggle them around, you can get the swear words as they appeared on my screen.
But I agree that Sfan's daily diatribe on what he is going to eat and drink is slightly more offensive than one off-colour remark.

You only saw the R-Word because you have the swear filter on.

Kyren could be very dangerous to Selby, indeed

So why is there a problem if the filter has handled. Why is further action needed?
All I can see is 'runt'. Besides, we can point to stacks of pages where this filter has heavily edited what the mod has written, stacks. One rule for him, another for SF?

but thats where the filter is for. You either have a filter and then theres no issue becuase everything gets filtered, or you dont have one and warn people for swearing.
You cant have a filter and still ban people for swearing.
