    Yes but all the more lovely because of that. His reaction to snooker was so nice...never heard of it beforehand but afterwards it has earned a special place in his heart (and his wallet )

    The big lead put pressure on the selbonians... and released some pressure on the dingles. Ronnie was up 10-7 overnight in 2014 so would be ironic if the Selbonians lost from here.

    It's funny, it feels like Selby is in control of this match and Ding is always trying to catch up, but this was 6-0 at one point, so Ding is actually winning the match 10-5 since. If this continues Selby could be in trouble, so I hope he still has enough energy for one final push. :smile:

    Anyone's match

    Ding winning will be so much better for the game, but hey that doesn't matter, he needs to do the job on the table
