Dafabet Masters Round 1 :Mark Selby v Mark J Williams

Hendry just popped into the studio and he admitted that he misses playin.




He got asked a few questions bout him gonna compete in the seniors.



Hazel asked him if that could be a sighn of a possible comeback,he smiled and said,"i don,t THINK so".

I think I had 6-2 in predicts. Can't be fussed to check.

Selby and Fu over everyone at the moment but the tournament is long and the form changes quickly even if I recognize that Selby is really impressive since the beginning of the season.

Warning to Robertson also that will increase in power in 2017.

Thought he played really well last night...


It's set up well for tomorrow! I'm buzzing! I award them both 7s at the moment, which means Ronnie will win...

Can someone help out with the SI commentry,i despratley need to go a take a dump.

I hav,nt missed much then,i just saw Selbs just missin a cannon,end of break after 39.

An rare safety error from Selbs gifts Willo an easy opener.

Willo misses a tricky red,end of break after 28,leaves nuthin on though.

What a sickening thought.

First scrappy frame of this match,5 reds still on,but 3 are on cushions,1 near one,black not pottable.

Wow,Willo pots a long red.


Then pots a pink,but is unlucky after cannoning the 2 remain reds,has to play safe,but blows it.


Leaves Selbs a gettable mid range red,but he misses.

Willo leads by 10,35 still on,Selbs is snookered.


Selbs hits it,but leaves a pot on,in which Willo gets,goes on and makes 19.


3-2 To Selbs.

Selbs leaves a red to the middle after the break off,Willo gets it,a green follows,...


Breaks ends after 26,lands on nuthin after pottin the black,spilttin the reds.

Wow!,a terrific long red from Willo,has had enuff of missin them.


Pots a brown,red after that,but misses a green.

It is

Ideally Ronnie would beat him in the Final here, but I'm hoping Selby doesn't even get that far.

The Final I would like to see would be Ronnie v Murphy or Ding.

MJW has improved but his cue ball control leaves a lot to be desired still. At least we won't see a runaway win for Selby now, even if it's 6-3.

Another very sloppy safety from Selbs leaves Willo an easy red,he,s pullin out some crackin pots to keep the break goin,end of break after 36,crackin 36 break!.


3-3


Selbs has gone down 2 gears.

Can't believe MJW is level at 3 all given how Selby was playing from 1-0 down... match on again.

Selbys turn to pot a nice long red.


Loses pos after 15,end of break.

After a good few good long pots,Willo now misses one by 2 country miles.

Yet another sloppy saftey from Selbs,leaves a red over the pocket.



Willo pots it,then a pink,but then misses an absolte sitter.

No pot on for Selbs.

I go to the gym and it's 3 - 3! Game on!

A safety battles goin on atm.

But Selbs puts an end to it,pulls out a good plant.

Wow!,Selbs misses an easy peasy blue,end o break after 33.

MJW NEEDS to make this clearance now and punish Selby for that missed blue. This will be the only way he can somehow aspire to win the match.

Punish him!

The 1% glimmer of hope I had there for MJW winning the match is just gone now

MJW

Willo lays a snooker,Selbs hits it,but the cue ball goes in.



Loses pos on the green,goes for it,a tricky one,just misses it,leaves it over the pocket,Selbs clears up to the pink.


4-3 Selbs.

it is not finished. far from there.
