McGill with a cracking start against Trump
98 break

Sounds like you are having fun

absolutely, I should have done this years ago and I thoroughly recommend to others to go events

Judd Trump is such an overhyped bum.

I have never even heard of McGill before today and he is going to beat the 4th ranked player in the world today.

I remember reading that Trump said snooker players don't make enough money.

Well Trump, you should want to win this tournament if you want to make more money.

When Judd is playing well he is one of the best snooker players on the planet. Bar none. He's got a very attacking style which works extremely well when Judd plays his A game. I'm not really sure he as a good enough B game.

Well played Williams, held his nerve in the end.

Pretty uninspired performance from Robertson, one of his weakest this season in the major events. He lost early in the German Masters as well, so I guess we could call this a little form crisis. It's probably the best time for something like that though, plenty of time to find his best stuff again ahead of the World Championship.

I've been looking forward to O'Sullivan-Xiao all day. Pinches was never going to give O'Sullivan a good game, but Xiao has been one of the most dangerous "outsiders" this season. You'd have to think O'Sullivan won't be able to afford as many mistakes as last night...

I really can't believe Mark Williams won that. It was tough match play snooker. I very much enjoyed it.

Come on Willo!! Scrappy end to the match, but good to see Willo getting through. Hopefully better things to come for him.

Eleven reds still on the table, and looking at where they've gone, it looks like this is going to be a real scrap. :smile:

I love the fact that Robertson can play an amazing shot and there's not a single person clapping in the audience. Poor sod.

[P.Smith]

Robertson completely bottled that frame to go 3-2 down against Williams.

Willo's been using an Accuerate cue for some time now but these low-deflectiosn cues can lead you to very strange shots sometimes. He seems to have lost accuracy even though some of his missed pots were just pure misjudgement....

Well more by fluke then design he managed to make it all square at 2 - 2 although I still feel Robertson is firm favourite for this match but if Williams can continue to fight and somehow manages to not make any more mistakes then he could still win this.
Also, Williams's legendary long potting ability seems to have gone walkabout. I wonder if it will ever come back.

Oh that was a bad miss by Mark Williams. I've never seen him look so angry.

Also. I've no idea how he can play with such a small tip. LOL.

Murphy can play like a twonk sometimes.

Like Hendry said, he breaks down on 40-50 too many times.
