2025 World Championships

If Luca keeps this form the rest of the tournament I don't think even Trump could stop him. That was one session of incredible snooker, I simply can't believe he'll be able to keep playing like that until the end of the tournament but if he does his name is on the trophy.

There is no doubt that for sheer natural talent Brecel is in a league of his own. I always remember the videos of him practicing as a kid and he still looks and plays exactly the same as he did back then. You'd have to say his best is unplayable, could he do it again playing ultra attacking. It'll frighten all the other players if he does.

And it's kind of a hobby for him, not his main focus in life. Imagine if it were. Yeah, he'd probably be crap.

Like Steve Davis once said "play like it means nothing when it means everything".

Ding is soft though.

Zhao and Bingtao when he comes back are better bets for this.

I'm pretty sure Bingtao won't come back.

Ding is soft though....

That's true, and he did kind of crumble, but did you see the session? It was hilarious, laugh out loud snooker.

PB 306 just bits of the session here and there, looking at the flowchart he'll have Murphy or Trump next, i'll buy into it more then.

I'm pretty sure Bingtao won't come back.

Looking at Google he'll be back in December 2027, do you know something more on this ?I haven't followed the story in depth.

[Cue crafty]

was it Steve Davis who tried to play with tongue out, "to aid concentration" or something?

Ricky Walden appears to do this as a matter of course. Looks like a Labrador hoping for a bone....

Higgins wins 13-12. Great match. Thought he’d blown it. Mark Williams in quarters. One to watch.

I'm pretty sure Bingtao won't come back.

Here’s hoping… couldn’t stand him anyway tbh, and once involved in fixing etc, loathed him more.

Be happy if I never see him again

He says this but I feel just like O'Sullivan, he does tell a few porkies

I'm not buying this just jetting in etc either. It's a circus act to play down his interest and the BBC and pundits are playing along fully in the knowledge it nonsense.

Yes I'm a cynical old man but it pays you to be in the modern world!
