Could have been in the top 3 best 147s ever made.
That red was just top class, and the tough cut black.
A bit more technique and he could be a threat, I like his style.

He looks like a great player. It's a great shame but I hope he'll bounce back. He's great to watch, with a great touch. I really felt for him.

He was invited to go on TFI Friday with Chris Evans , but declined .
it would have been great for his profile as a lot of celebs go on that program

Is it just me or did you get the feeling Robertson was kinda glad he missed it?

I don't know how it works behind the scenes of world snooker but I hope he got some attention after that and maybe will get calls from a few big wigs to commiserate and cheer him up. He's far from home and looked like a broken man after that and I really felt for the guy. He was sitting there with his head in his hands and Thorn and Taylor were laughing about it. I was watching the Judd Trump match and they switched to Un-Nooh mid break which I think is a first because I've seen the coverage and commentary switch before but never the coverage but not the commentary.

Ah, good luck mate
Poor lad missing that, it will haunt him for a while you'd think, Ken says it still haunts him, just shows anything is missable under pressure.

This composure slows down the excitement and normalise blood flow which is good for the all important shot, unless you are a seasoned competition 147 player.

That last red though, what a fantastic shot that was and a real shame that he took the easy black for granted, lesson for us all there.
