Bank of Communication Shanghai Masters Last 16 Discussion !!

I said Ronnie would tank. The bookies making him the fav when he hasen't won a ranker in two years was a joke.

Well played Hamilton. O'Sullivan takes another beating.

But remember hamiltons never won a ranker.

That was sensational.This could be his week I feel. However selby will be too strong in the semis i should think.

But what a performance hes put up here.

JUHUIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!,"The sheriff of Pottingham" has kicked out "Private O`Sullivan"


Good Oon ya Anthony!

Matthew Stevens 3-1 Martin Gould streaming
Ronnie O'Sullivan 3-5 Anthony Hamilton
Shaun Murphy 2-4 Mark Allen
Neil Robertson 4-1 Michael Holt

Hamilton would not be afraid of Selby. He beat him 5-2 in the quarters of the Welsh Open, 2 years ago....

Hopefully Mark Allen can do a job on Murphy, it would be a very good win for him.

Good call there, that was a good match.

I reckon he can take the title her. Unless Higgins makes the final.

Did Ronnie concede whilst Hamilton had a chance of a ton?

WOW - chance for the high break makes it even worse. Ronnie is so ignorant its unreal.

Imagine what people would say if a player did that to him

Is he throwing the match away?

Ronnie you bucking runt. Well done Hamilton, sounds like he's putting in a great showing this week. He was always quality in my estimations.

It wasn't a nice thing to do, but Hamilton was not compelled to accept the concession. He could have played on had he chosen to.

He should have played on and rubbed his nose in it, show them that there's a show without Ronnie...

Allen blew it from 4-2 up....

as it turned out it would not be H/B Murphy made a 143

Monique, i'm sorry but that is weak. Ronnie conceded, no doubt Hamilton was surprised and might not have been thinking straight.

Ronnie showed contempt for his opponent and the spectators who would have undoubtedly wanted to see another ton.

If you watched the match, Tub, you will know that Anthony showed plenty today, and got the applause of the crowd for his awesome performance. Deservedly. Anthony is 12th in the all time century list, he's made 5 already this week. When on his game he's one of the best and most accurate breakbuilders in the MT. He's reminding us just that this week. He would have been a handful for absolutely everyone today.

Hear hear Case... the guy is in the wrong here, and their is no excuse for the kind of ignorance he has shown today.

The key ball of the match was the missed black by Ronnie at 3-2.

This is a painful defeat for Ronnie, Hamilton is the kind of player he just has to beat. Winning this tournament was a bit unrealistic from the start but a semi final or even a final was very possible after the kind draw.

"depressed", Us Hendry fans have nothin too be depressed about,he the greatest ever snooker player.

Ronnie has a chance to be the greatest ever snooker player,but if he continues like he,s doin at the mom,he,s got no chance.Higgins and Williams are probably gonna overtake him,let alone Stephen Hendry.

I didn't watch it. Hamilton is a quality player and I have always though that, he's easily one of the best breakbuilders I've seen, no exaggeration. I think, in fact I know, that conceding a match when a player has an opportunity for a high break is downright ignorant, and I couldn't give a rubbish about Hamilton being able to continue because Sullivan had already shown absolutely zero respect in doing that. End of story.
