Probably not high enough for Ron to try or make one.
I think it's probably the very minimum - not sure if that's £5,000 or £10,000.
Don't know whether the two-maxis in 5 minutes the other day counts, as it was technically in qualifying, but regardless, Mark Allen made a 147 in the most recent ranker, the UK.
So, I assume the prize fund has been reset. I'm thinking it's probably just £5,000. (plus £2 for highest break!)

At the English Open he also had the match under cmplete control against Wakelin. 2-0 up, allowed Wakelin to lead 3-2 and in the end win the match 4-3.

You're right. Sheers
You're probably some sort of Skullman now since he's not here anymore, sadly.

Yes, and qualifying for the German Open, not the Scottish...

Pffft. Minuscule amount. I've used more banknotes than that wiping my bottom.

Chris Wakelin was on a maximum attempt, but it seems that he missed it at 96. He leads Nigel Bond 3-0, though.

Ronnie's long potting has been excelent, unfortunately the ocasional sitter is still being missed. Something he has to cut from his game against the likes of his last 3 opponents in Finals.

Still dont know whether thats an age thing or just lack of match sharpness. But given how much he has already played this season I cant really say its the latter one.

Age thing no doubt. Ronnie's decline is slow, but a steady decline nonetheless, a decline that means he's still capable of winning titles, unlike other players that when they start the decline, their game goes away.

Can't say Ron has really played bad since 2-0, it's just Selt raised his game. Ron only missed that sitter of a black in frame 4.

Wakelin on the verge of the top 64 prior to Q School 2013 when he qualified for the tour he had only played in 1 PTC

Quite right, but Ronnie can go on better than most.

You have the feeling John Higgins just doesn't fit there. As a pundit. Don't know if it's the scottish accent but he's looking too shy and like he feels unfomfortable out there.
