XingPai China Open Final !!!

Lisowski has never impressed me much. This match is over, there's no way Jack wins this.

Jack is a very fine player. However, he has a gap in his armoury that the top players will always exploit. He seems unable to weather a tough period by adapting his tactics.

Consequently, his game and morale collapse leading to scorelines like this.

7-1

Had the feeling this was gonna happen.

Its been a good week for Lisowski financially but he needs to improve a lot if he ever wants to compete with the very big players in a match like this.

I Was at the Crucible in 2016 and came towards Neil Robertson as he was leaving after losing 10-6 to michael Holt. he looked pitiful and a sad figure how things change in Sport

Discuss.

Thats a possibility but I doubt it will happen. In 2015 season Bingham played everything he could and still won the World Title.

I dont think it will affect Robbo much, if anything, its ideal match sharpness for the long matches.

Na Jack not that type to let results affect him

Stop... he's already dead

Trump started here when he beat Selby who was already a top player to win the title.

Jack has a long way to go for that to happen but heading in the right direction. Hopefully this thrashing is a learning curve.

It would seem that way wouldn’t it...

He’s been in in nearly every frame i’ve watched so far this morning, it’s not like Robbo has frozen him out.

But Robbo will have the pressure to reach 5th final IN A ROW at the Crucible.

Think that win vs Cao last season gave Neil a new life line.

I thought they went to 10 frames.

Eurosport are going to the Ronde van Vlaanderen. Snooker is still on the player.

Thing is its not a thrashing Jack could actually lead in this match that's how close frames have been Neil been dishing up after some careless misses from Jack.

Well it's seems they're actually showing a montage of skiers falling over and ice hockey fights.

And that will hurt Jack more.

Theres a world of difference between your opponent not giving you a chance and always clearing up between you having chances and not taking them.

Same as his Match with Higgins last year but this season hes played better.


This Match is World No 6 vs World no 11 on the current provisional rankings i think Jack will take it with a pinch of salt

Tactically hes naive safety is basically up and down anywhere for him

8-2! the fight back is on!

Lisowski has to be the most frustrating player to watch.

Can turn up for one match and look brilliant, then backs it up by getting absolutely annihilated.

Jack is playing the player here, not the table. On same type of balls spread against Donaldson, he would score 100 and against Robertson he would score 40

And that is why God invented the Eurosport player. On the 8th day.

How different the world would be if Cao had potted that black...
