phew 6-2
looking for more "excitement" from 19:00 tonight :wink:

Yes not too bad of a result in view of Selby's heavy scoring today. Well done Ding for keeping focused.

all ding has to do is pot balls lol, thats not selbys fault

This is very true, but it's so very hard not to get spiteful and bitter when one of your favourite players is getting hammered by such a dullard.

Ronnie's out...Selby's in the Final...you can put your money on all sorts of haters coming out of the woodwork...as they do each time Selby is in the Final...once again.

Tbf Selby had it easy getting to the final (no disrespect to Milkin, Baird, Wilson & Fu) compare to Ding draws..

So 6-2 then. Good. Now there is still tension in this final.

So stay away then...what have you come back for if you can't enjoy a good snooker match.

Don't worry I will.
I know I'm a lousy fan, I know nobody cares, just needed to express my frustrations somewhere, sorry to bother you.

I stopped watching Snooker after Selby won the title last time, I got back at watching snooker this tournament, but Selby is driving me away again.

Bye bye then.

Yes, I'm a hater, can't stand how he sucks out the life of his opponents.

You just don't like Selby and utter nothing but constant drivel his way. Ding takes as long as Selby. You would not be caring about what Selby was doing if it was Ding who was 6-1 up now would you.

I think drivel is unfair. I don't like the way he plays and find him a very uninspiring world number 1. It doest mean I can't comment. That slow walk back to his corner to wipe his cue before the important blue was just another example. Maybe I pick up on it more, I dunno. Granted he has far more mental strength than Ding and will walk this. I don't think he is negative per say, more somebody who thrives on breaking up games and knocking opponents off kilter. He is a perfect match player no doubt.

[scarfacechen]

Ding carrying hope of an entire nation on his shoulder, such burden

[richo]

This does show the power of mental strength in the game doesn't it. Ding looks beat really, Selby looks like a man who knows he will win over this length and format.

[Alba_]

If you don't think Selby slows every important shot down you don't know a thing about snooker and shouldn't be here.

Huge relief for Ding...he got rather emotional as well. You could see what it means to him. Gotta say I just love the young man...such a sweetheart he is

So final frame of this session...I think that 1st frame was the catalist, we're are all set for a huge comeback from Ding now.

:snooker:
