I don't care all that much in this tournament's case though. Rather this be ranking than the Shootout.


It is open to all players. Tell me who's been barred from it?

If somebody isn't in this tournament it's because they haven't been good enough and have failed to meet the qualification criteria.


My thoughts exactly Cloud. It open to all of them.

You both make a good point.

But The Masters is also open to any player that meets the criteria.

Perhaps I should have said "any tournament in which the full field isn't involved."


I see what you're saying and you have a point. Personally, I'm glad we get the odd tournament that bucks the 128 draw norm.

Oh believe me, so am I! I love limited fields like this.

Thw Champion of Champions is one of my favourite tournaments of the year for the same reason. I'd love a Top 8, two-session matches tournament.

I'd never say you're wrong, it's just a different opinion!

It's only your opinion that's wrong, not you.

(Just kidding!)

How he didnt win frames 1 and 3 is just silly :dizzy:

This has been one fo his worst matches against Ronnie.

Impossible to determine anything about Ronnie's game from that. He may as well have been playing a pelican for all the resistance Milkins gave him.

It was a practice session for Ronnie, so just that 1 match.

Watching Gouldy now.

O'Sullivan vs Milkins must be the most one sided match up in snooker history. Milkins has won 7 frames out of 55.

That's not really a joke.

It's the better match.
