Club-level lashing.

What the buck is he doing?

Oooof. That was a terrible miss from White.

So, we have a White playing today and our second Brown of the day.

We need more players named after snooker balls.

Dreadful match.

I like how both of these could be in reference to Jimmy.

Lam misses virtual frame ball red on 52. Tough table though for Judd.

Mikey?

He's talking about Jimmy White in the 1994 Crucible Final.

His stream is a bit slow.

Judd misses the final black on 41 :( it was the shot on the blue that was the problem. He was on the wrong side on the pink and had to all round the table but Lam misses the tough black and Judd knocks in a beauty that looked very thin. Relief that Judd is level at 1-1.

Buckets!

Judd wins the frame and leads 2-1.

Must be possible for wst to standard pocket profiles for all tournaments. We get this almost every overseas tournaments, makes players more comfortable and appear to play better.

It’s hardly just an overseas thing

Possibly not exclusive but can't think of any other sports where size of playing area can be different.

Ronnie putting in some quick ones. Don’t often see that.

Try convincing Foulds,called big pockets from first match.

Now that's how you steal a frame! Judd clears with 67 and leads 4-1.

I think it goes a bit beyond simply using the same template. Other factors contribute to how generous a pocket is. Undercut of the rubber, fall of the slate, grade of cloth.

If a table fitter is asked to use the same template for two tables, but make the bags a bit easier on one table, it’s more than possible. Therefore it’s likely there will be inconsistencies from tournament to tournament, whether intentional or not.

Understand all your points Prop, can never remember crucible tables been generous.

He appears to have uncollapsed.

I might be wrong but I seem to remember there was one particular year quite recently (2018/19 perhaps) when it was really bad at the Crucible. I don’t think Sheffield is immune from buckets, but I agree it doesn’t seem quite as bad as some tournaments.

Lam looked like he was going to steal the frame but misses the final black which wasn't easy. He's not left it on though.

Judd plays a poor safety though and Lam knocks the black in and trails 4-2.

73 break from Judd and he wins 5-2
