What would happen if a frame started before the alloted time but then the frame had to be reracked and by this time the alloted time had been passed? Would the reracked frame be played in that session or the next?

You're the ref Andre.

This is a good question, but the reracked frame is still a new frame, so it would be played in the next session.

Cheers. I have never seen it happen and had always wondered about it.

We once had two reracks in the same frame, in that classic 2009 Worlds quarter-final between Higgins and Selby.

I remember it was the same year Ronnie and Selby also had two at the Masters Final in one of the frames.

I remember the Higgins vs Selby reracks. That was a rarity. And that was a great match!

There’s a common factor there :chin:

Similar to Ronnie against JOURNEYMAN David Gray in 2000.

That was the match where Selby got a temporary nickname of 'The Hoover'.

Can't contribute too much here as I have a Masters degree to work on, but it must said if others haven't (they probably have!), Joe Perry has the most boring voice ever and should only make appearances at the Crucible as a player

Be careful. LDS might be lurking somewhere and have a go at you.

I like him, but him and Hamilton speak a bit too much.

Was Ebdon better back when he commentated?
