Selby's doing a Ding and having the season off after winning 5 events the previous season...
I thought having a season off was called doing a Ronnie.
He is actually involved in the decision when he has a season off, there is a difference!

Ding looks good for a 4-1 walloping of Mark King.

He's been choking all match. Lucky for him that Selby's been off his game otherwise this would've been an easy 4-0.

I'm not sure if Jimmy is choking. He's been missing essy balls all match. Just playing poorly and thats his level i think.

Did I dream it, or did the IC get on Quest this season?

A simple blue missed off the spot. Jimmy is consistent in throwing in a howler.

He's a journeyman, nothing more. He won't be troubling the top 16 as some on here have suggested.

He's miseed about 10 sitters so far. Does that mean he's choked 10 times? He's rarely won a tv game. Maybe Jimmy just misses a lot of easy balls. Not neccessarily choking for me.

Selby playing bad, but Jimmy even worse. He would of won this match or at least been 3-1 up

Can see Selby losing this one to Jimmy Robbo, much like Xiao at the German Masters.

http://www.themartineffect.co.uk/Gotta love Clive. 2 mins of commentary and I already learnt loads about Jimmy.
From what I've seen so far today, either this guy isn't very good or Jimmy need a few more sessions.

The best player wins the match. 'Should have' never won any match.

I'm not sure even Wildey can do that. Has to be the admin, I think.

A confidence coach can only do so much. Jimmy missing balls all day maybe is more a reflection of his standard than anything else.

I disagree. To get to his level you have to be an extremely good player. The rest is in the head.
