Did you lose your temper and start calling him a "Scottish hammer"?

2nd place is not a trophy pal.
Did I say I needed a trophy?

No, but it's higher than 22nd.

That’s just clumsy at this level.
Or maybe there's a ThinkPink curse?
At this point, it’s unlikely that there
isn’t one

I want one but nowhere near it being 22nd :( At least you're going to be qualifying for the champions league.

SundayGirl has the remaining players left in the event:
Mark Allen - 3
Ding Junhui - 6
John Higgins - 9
David Gilbert - 12
Daniel Wells - 36
Best possible:
Ding meets Wells in the QF - Wells wins - 6pts
Higgins meets Wells in the SF - Wells wins - 18pts
Allen meets Gilbert in the SF - Gilbert wins - 6pts
Final of Gilbert v Wells - Wells wins - 36pts + 144pts
= 210pts still on the table.
Without Wells getting to the QFs:
Ding meets Higgins in the SF - Higgins wins - 12pts
Allen meets Gilbert in the SF - Gilbert wins - 6pts
Higgins v Gilbert final - Gilbert wins - 27pts + 48pts
= 93pts
Without Wells or Gilbert getting to the QFs:
Ding meets Higgins in the SF - Higgins wins - 12pts
Allen gets to the final with Higgins - Higgins wins - 9pts + 36pts
= 57pts
Who is within 57pts of SundayGirl:
McManusFan - 32.5pts - Also has Allen, Higgins and Gilbert, so SundayGirl needs Wells to get to the QF.
Holden Chinaski - 34.5pts - Also has Higgins, so requires either Gilbert, Wells
to get to the QFs and for other results to disfavour Holden
The_Abbot - 40pts - Also has Allen and Wells, so SundayGirl's best chance but requires Higgins to beat Ding in the SF and Allen not to do well and Higgins to win the event. Or have Gilbert do well.
Dan-cat - 45.5pts - Only has Luca Brecel and Zhang Anda left, so another good chance, but requires Ding, Higgins and Allen to all do very well, and/or Wells and Gilbert doing well.
Vallomas - 57pts - Only has Murphy and Brecel left, would still require a lot of great results.
So if SundayGirl only has Allen and Ding left at the QF stage, the dildo is in place, she is currently relying on Higgins, Gilbert and Wells to rescue her from a pleasurable fate.

Actually, technically, I have three; alongside Wells I got Xhang Anda, and Xiao Gudong - but I’ve already written off Xiao due to the WTC

Two of my remaining three departed after the morning session, and the watache-thread Curse is going to end my hopes of any points from this tournament

I'd say 'Go Hoss!' but I'd rather one of the Chinese lads won than me finish as a Pinkie runner-up

The Snooker Gods won’t allow a Hoss win after his comments
