No snooker for weeks and now we get a daily marathon!

Players are rusty as you would expect but I'm still enjoying it for what it is, and I think latter on in thr tournament the standard will improve.

Yeah it’s better than nothing. And there are still a lot of top players to come.

Yes, this event will become a lot more interesting once Ronnie starts playing and once the top players start playing each other.

It should be two points for a win.

Why so?

Almost feeling sorry for Burden

Basically to make it more exciting and rule out players being out of the running in their group relatively early.

What I actually think they should have done is base the group standings on frames won and play all 4 frames.

Cracking disturbance of the brown

Yeah - good point. That is probably the biggest weakness in that players can be almost out after one match.

Burden starting to boil.

Alfie didn't get the rub of the green at all unfortunately :(

In Kyren's hands now

That last frame was a burden for Alfie

What they don’t mention here is that Ronnie is taking all his recipe inspirations from the ‘cooking in the time of coronavirus’ thread on snooker Island.

#insiderinformation

Quick thinking from the ref there.

Pointless confusion over the rests now.

KEEP IT SIMPLE!!!

Does seem a bit silly. I guess there’s always the Player 1/Player 2 scenario but you’d think they could keep the positioning for the player who stays in the arena.

Got to watch the last match, glad Dom is back on comms, Bingo wasn't that great. Has Kyren aged 20 years during the lockdown? Alfie ain't winning anything today is he?

Yeah, the higher ranked player is always on the left, but seems pointless to adhere to that here

buck sake Alfie

Pretty strict with c-19 rules aren't they
