I got it on Eurosport 2.

Seems continental ES doesn't care much about snooker...well, at least over cycling that is live here. 30km to go!

In the mean time, bet365 it is.

Remind me which country you're in?

In the UK, they're always on about how popular Eurosport has made Snooker on the continent.

Davison in a difficult snooker.

Somehow, the crowd looks better now.

I see Murphy was 4-3 down, and won.

I didn't expect Selby to miss that black, and Davison is in again.

Did Davison put his hand up to apology to Selby then? Can't think why. He was unlucky with that shot.

Selby back in. Looking to level the match.

Selby misses frame ball.

Croatian snooker fan here!

And I think your next sentence actually might be right, it is way more popular than before, but guessing still not enough to be prioritized over something else. I do hope over the week there'll be a lot of it here.

Selby misses frame ball again.

Selby finally pots frame ball, but Davison comes back. Only needs one Snooker.

Davison fouls, so that gives Selby the frame.

I'm only going by what the commentators claim.

Is cycling popular on the continent? There seems to be a lot of skiing on Eurosport too.

Selby in in frame 3.

Probably is, but I personally don't care about it at all. Skiing and some other winter sports are great, though. :)

2-1 Selby.

Second miss. Davison warned.

3-1 Selby.

Eurosport discussing frame highlights in MSI.

Higgins easily defeats Wilson, 6-0.

I just came on to post that.

4-1 Selby. Only one winner now.

Yep,old John teaches the young gun a real good lesson,thumps him 6-0 and knocks in a *145* for good measure.


John threw a barrage of breaks against his pupil,he threw a *145*,84,67,65 and a 60 at him.

It's been a year since John Higgins won this tournament. Has he got another tournament win in him?

Dott got Fergal 6-1, and Baird finished Michael White, 6-2. Wattana's doing well against Gilbert, 3-2 and in break, while Maflin has a strong lead over Selt, 4-1.

Once upon a time,i was one o the many culprits who said he,d never ever win a ranking tourney again,since i said that,the dumplings won 3 since.


Johns quite a charachter,verrrrrrrrrrrrrrry Scottish,it has to be said,a very gritty,determined individual with the never give up attitude.



I think he will win at least 1 more,he,s no mug and knows full that he,s level with Davis and Ronnie on total ranking titles tally list,one o his main goals is to overtake them,he,ll keep on tryin his best to achieve it.

Blimey. I went away from the TV for half an hour, and it's gone from 4-1 to 4-3, with a possible 4-4.

Nope. Selby back in.

Putting the rest of Selby on to tape.

Some surprise results so far!
I see the 3 'wild card' games have all been won by Chinese amateurs, beating the 3 Tour professionals - there's still one 'wild card' match to go.
