I vote Figgy.

Just a standard shaming tactic to try to convert you over to Igor.

All the young kids will have loads of opportunity over the next several decades to make their mark. Very good chance this may be Igor's last hurrah. And hey, he is from Brazil. He could use a cheering section to see him through a round or two. Be nice if he could go even further.

Not that hard is it.
Do you want me to help you out.
James Cahill is the only player in the first round that was at the Crucible last year so lets just watch what he does first. There sorted.

Morning lads.
Of course he should! He has the best parts of and from the Judd Trump and Mark Selby. He slows it down just correctly, is solid as hell break-builder, an excellent long-potter, and withstands the pressure almost second to none. And I am not kidding by any means. Not some any or some talent can send Ronnie O´Sullivan immeaditely crashing when Ronnie had a "perfect" preparation to lift the Title, but he didn´t.
"..quite certain that he has the highest tournament break ever compiled on American soil with a 146 at the Pan American Championship in Houston, Texas, February 2019. He showed great character when he completely misplayed the final Red to position on Black leaving himself smack between Pink and Black. After a chuckle at his stupidly played stroke, he proceeded to pot Pink into the Green pocket perfectly positioning for the clearance".
- I first thought you were writing about James. But it was Igor. Well, fair play FOR SURE to Igor also, but this is almost as James, and not still that not much about Igor.. It could had been Jak Jones also.. But who´s ever there, just is there and that´s always a fair play. I suppose.. There just were some dumb shot, so who it was then..
Each for their own, still.
I seriously thought she would had been finished already but wasn´t.
The Bastille day´s on. At least it is on. I have heard that all the others are now completely off. It is on now, but only the Bastille day. Anthony Hamilton could be a great coach to James Cahill. They have some similarities but James just has more, which always and always….. I just didn´t knew the situation was that much bad. I seriously thought it was all about forcing to solve problems or to build something quickly and then to fail and receiving the "next package". But it was all about well yes well money well power well talk well we well better well well bla well bla well much well more well.
