I think we all know how they'll play.

The contenders and there are no more (but this is enough):

Ding
Trump
Selby
Williams
Higgins
O'Sullivan

3 from each half of the draw. I think Murphy v O'Sullivan will be good but Ronnie will be too determined not to lose to Shaun. Saying that, Shaun will not shy away as he proved in taking the shitclock crown from Ronnie last season so that is the round 2 match I'm personally looking forward to most. Really honestly don't care who wins that one.

I played last Friday. My high break will be staying where it is for a while, although I did improve fairly steadily Sonny. I started off struggling to pot anything, but by the end of the night I got a 15 or something. My brother reckons I'll hit a half century in no time :hatoff: He's a really good player so it will do me good to play someone like that who I can learn from.

Good man. I'm thinking about getting myself a new cue although funding may be a problem especially after bandit Casey took all my money (not that I can remember a single game :redneck: )

As I said before, may as well hang on to final tickets then if Ronnie gets to the semis the price will elevate stupidly and I'd be a fool not to cash in.

Agree you can tell a player's in form when everything's going into the pockets without touching the sides and he's done that more than anyone in R1 for me.

Believe me Trump is no contender id back Hendry before him at the moment yes hes making strides and i expect him in the next 2 to 3 years to make a move but not this year.
