  • This is true. However the romantic in me likes to believe he would have, because he is an amazing talent!

      Spot on. He was asking and joking with the ref about the 'cheapness' of the maxi prize and the commentators twigged as well. Everyone saw it coming, like a bus. Well, some of us twigged! lol Only Jan Ver Haas managed to persaude him to pot the black on his 'called' maxi when he began asking Jan what the prize for a maxi was after the first black. If Jan hadn't said c'mon on now Ronnie while literally grabbing him and guiding him to the table, he would have left the black on 140 after he shaked Mark King's hand. He often brags about doing this in practice and in front of Hendry. He prefers it to a maxi, so it was no surprise that he came up with a cheakier way of leaving one whilst also completing a TC. He was pleased as punch afterwards with it, saying 146s were rare. I bet he'd had this plan in his head for some time. Ronnie can be very devious when he wants and very naughty!

        I reckon he was toying with something else - how About a double of the final black? How cool would that have been? I've also noticed ronnie is keen on trying to scratch on the final black - would have been ace to have made a maxi and scratched too.

        [Yeah, scratched. Bite me].

          Are you aware of snooker rules? It wouldn't have been a maxi you dipstick. No idea have you?

              Lol. Whooosh or swing and a miss? - poor either way. Frankly, I'm beginning to think your tropical paradise vacation has left you a bit flabby.

                You should go there, learn the rules of the game then come back. A 'vacation' might do you some good pool player.
