Championship League Snooker 2019 !!!

Come on Jimmy

The Champions League makes me want to pull my teeth out, pull my hair out and gorge my eyeballs out with spoons. Preferably all at the same time.

Who makes money from the CL?

Apart from the players obviously.

Thanks.

It just surprises me that anbody makes much at all out of this as it is not sponsored (I think) and I would hate to bet on it. Others must disagree.

Though I can't understand it either. I'm assuming the people who bet on this stuff don't necessarily know anything about snooker, and just see it being played on stream and have a bet. Seems silly to bet on a sport you know nothing about.

And CL is hard to predict a winner as the format is so short. So yeah, the people who do most likely arent die hard fans like us.

Highest ranked players get to decide whether to play and which group they want to play in until every spot is filled.

I never understood it.
Cheers Deewee.

Got tickets to the Tour Championship from Wednesday to Sunday expect sadly the final session . Not one of my wisest financial decisions to fly in for a week of snooker but hey-ho, two years without world class live snooker is long enough. Really excited for some long format matches! I'm going with a friend who I play snooker with whenever I visit my hometown. He's more of a casual fan, so hopefully his first live snooker experience converts him completely to the dark side

I've never watched a Championship League match in my life.
