Looks vulnerable now.

Wiping his face a lot, nervous sweating.

The psychology of snooker is one of the most fascinating aspects. You can visibly see the confidence drain as he realises he has a chance to be ahead overnight.

This is a big visit for Jimmy now

Marco gets out 7-2 with a century. Still looking very bad for him.

Now that's the real Marco Fu, by god did he need that.

fully expect that match to happen. cant see day/guodong being anywhere near a threat for selby and if Brecel beats Fu its highly unlikely to see him playing anywhere near like this again.

So things looking bright for Robbo.

5 years ago there was that feature with the BBC experts predicting the top 5 in 5 years I think (must have been 5 years ago as a lot of them had Brecel there). Will we have a look at that?

Flukes!

That was 8 years ago they did that feature. There was already a lot of hype surrounding Brecel even back then.

ffs

Didn't they think everybody would be Chinese?

Jimmy

Including the audience.

Massive mistake from the other Robbo.

Jimmy looks so nervous

He needs to feel that he deserves to be there

COME ON

Dig deep now Jimmy

I don't think this forum is dying. Don't think it's ever been this active before for the first two days of the World Championship.

I think the problem for the forum might be that the gap between the World Championship and every other tournament has grown and grown under Barry Hearn.

Jimmy needs to make sure Allen is playing catch up. If Allen gets ahead in frames at any point, Jimmy has no chances of winning.

Tend to agree , tbh other than the worlds the only event I have big interest in is the Masters

The UK has lost its spark

I enjoy the UK but mostly because I can walk to the Barbican.

5-4 Allen

Hey mate, is there any truth the rumours this forum is going to be shut down? Just wondering if you've heard anything.

fully agree. Changing the UK back to its former glory days for example would be helpful which Hearn though will never do

When this £500 000 prize money / ranking points comes in for the Worlds, the gap will be disgustingly large.
