But Noppon’s brother didn’t qualify

Robertson and Williams please.

Oh buck OFF I forgot to update my team FFS

I have Ronnie and Robbo on my team so at least I have one guy who has a good chance of winning this. I was going to pick Ronnie and Higgins.

Now we’re at the Quarter Finals of the World Championship let’s see how everyone’s teams are holding up:




Pink Ball - Yan Bingtao, Ronnie O’Sullivan

SnookerEd - Noppon Saengkham, Michael White

Prop - Ronnie O’Sullivan, Mark Selby

Chengdufan - Judd Trump, Neil Robertson

Juddernaut - Judd Trump, Neil Robertson

Iranu - Mark Selby, John Higgins

Reg Varney - Neil Robertson, Mark Williams

Andre - Mark Allen, John Higgins

Vodkadiet - Ronnie O’Sullivan, Mark Williams

KrazeeEyez - Yan Bingtao, Shaun Murphy

Rekoons - Judd Trump, Kyren Wilson

Gninnur Karona - Neil Robertson, Yan Bingtao

Raziel - Mark Allen, Yan Bingtao

Holden - Ronnie O’Sullivan, Neil Robertson

Dan-cat - Yan Bingtao, Ronnie O’Sullivan

McmanusFan - Ding Junhui, John Higgins

Snookerfan - Mark Selby, John Higgins

Mantorok - Judd Trump, Ronnie O’Sullivan

RunningSide - Ronnie O’Sullivan, Neil Robertson

James Bentley - Judd Trump, Neil Robertson

CSPrince - Ray Reardon, Alex Higgins

YanFan - Judd Trump, John Higgins

PLTheRef - Judd Trump, Neil Robertson



Every except Ed and Prince has at least one player remaining.

No wildcards remain.

Because Runningside and Holden both have Ronnie O’Sullivan left, the title can only be held aloft by Holden, Andre (who has Higgins), or both of them.

Juddernaut can gain three points if Judd wins, but he’ll also lose three points because Gary Wilson didn’t win a tournament this season he’ll lose three points for that anyway so the best he can do is remain on 18 points.

Congratulations to Holden Chinaski

In the end the wildcard made a huge difference, with the three Brecel choosers taking up the top three points.

A hugely impressive effort from Juddernaut who achieved fourth place despite losing three points for a non-winning wildcard - the next four places below him all decided not to pick a wildcard and therefore didn’t lose any points.

Many thanks to everyone who took part! It’s been emotional. I hope you enjoyed it.

I’ll take some time to consider some refinements for next season and then post the thread for 2022-2023 participation.

Yeah baby!

Thanks for running this great competition, Iranu!

Be honest - would you have stuck with Ronnie if you hadn’t forgotten to change your team for the Worlds?

Of course! Like I said, I was going to pick Ronnie and Higgins.

Ah yeah I forgot that part.

I wasn't able to enter therefore this win will, quite rightly, have an asterisk beside it.
