Tried, it just says file not supported. No biggie. I was really wanting to watch on the big screen, but I'll settle for my smaller computer monitor.

I just dont like the way Kyren Wilson plays, obviously, he is great player, but I think I have found my one I do not want to watch .... Hope Mark Allen can turn this match around, but he has lot to do, eventough he won 5 in the row.

tomorrow get to your local electronic store and get a "big-one"
snooker is on all week and then the fully packed season starts soon after
investment for the future :wink:

Peter Ebdon doesn't half talk some bollards! I like the way JV patiently let's him ramble on, and then picks up the commentary when he finally shuts up, totally ignoring and disregarding his nonsense.

[Billy]

Yes they can, they have the ability to show both matches on the red button, just choose not to!

I didn't like their decision to drop the two-table red button option any more than you, but they must have had good reason. Do you think they do these things just to annoy people?

I do like Hazel. Just watching that snippet of Fighting Talk during the interval and she took the floor for O'Sullivan's record fast 147, and she showed real enthusiasm and a love for the game. She knows what she's talking about, does Hazel.

C'mon Mark...pinch the last couple frames. I can't stand that Wilson fellow. Plus we need a close match

seems like Wilson plays pretty standard modern style snooker to me, not particularly negative or slow in any way.... Do you mean you find his mannerisms annoying?

When the beeb cut funds for the red button a few years back we lost a lot of the red button usefulness since. It's very poor compared to what it was a few year back.

Ebdon really needs to stop shouting out like the nob head guy at the club.. For gawd sake, calm down dear...

[ChrisL]

I actually think ebdon gives an expert opinion unlike JV who knows a lot about waistcoats and in offs. Being a Jimmy 'I'm playing the greatest snooker of my life on the practice table' White fan you'll be an expert on snooker players speaking rubbish lol.

very true two RBs were great back then.
they still have the capability but, as you say they, reduced budgets so they don't use it, unless it is something very special like Olympics

I feel like whoever comes through the half playing on table 2 is going to really struggle with their game once they get down to the one table setup. With the constant changing of cushions and the speed of the table, its got to affect their game and its no wonder we are seeing so many scrappy frames and struggles. Only Higgins has shown any kind of good form on this side of the arena. It really is a joke the conditions this year and its made the tournament pretty unwatchable for me to see so many of the top players being made to look average.

His cue actions drives me nuts (he has very weird pause just before delivering the cue) so it does not seem 'smooth' as for the other players, and too me, he only plays safety with no creativity from what I have seen .... maybe I am biased, he is playing pretty well for sure, I have not liked his style from the start, I think I first saw him last WSC.

Allen has been pretty unlucky, the foul was barely noticable, I can't see him turning this match around now, hopefully, the next Mark will be too strong for Wilson :-)
