They're usually pretty good when it gets to the latter stages of tournaments. Early rounds they stop dead at a key point.
Fluke for Robbo

I can't to be honest. Please remind me.
2012 UK Championship. (That was Google aiding my memory, by the way.)
Robertson was 4-0 up at the mid-session ans lost 6-4.

Shouldn't Higgins be the flukiest player, considering how many bank shots he pots?

Shhh Judd doesn't get many flukes these days. He had 1 yesterday but that was first all tournament and he also didn't get any in the European Masters.

I guess it's a matter of opinion, but personally I think those shots require luck (at least on a snooker table), unless the object ball is hovering over a pocket

Bank shots are doubles, right? How can a ball be over the pocket on a double?
I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Higgins doubles game comes and goes with his general form. He’s the best in the world at judging doubles, I don’t think it’s luck at all.

Neil really blew it on that last red. Should have been easy to finish on the black.
