2018 World Championship

3:0 to Perry now. The World Champion is in real trouble.

Are you joking ?
Plenty of time yet

Hmm, kinda wished I hadn't cashed out. It's the way Selby has lost Frames - very reminiscent of his (once unexpected) losses during the season and the lucky win vs Woollaston.....

What a miss on the red to the middle pocket!

He's just trying to grab some headlines with a comeback against the odds 😆

Perry is not playing that well, he has missed plenty of shots and some poor safety, but Selby is playing woefully, nothing like his normal self. No confidence at all, he looks broken and it might be very hard for him to turn it around.

Indeed re Perry: but Selby has been playing like this for a fair whack of the season.....

Of course Selby is able to turn this around, but it's already a big task. And so far he is just playing pretty weak. The way he lost the frames makes me thinking this way.

Only if he comes out with those Droopy\Deputy Dawg eyes that look like he is on Smack or something, but lose the rest of the session and Perry could play even worse and let him in.....

10-1 is a popular score for Champs to lose?

Went from 44's to 16 as my whole £2 bet was "confirming"......

the greatest 5hite-ist film ever as it was meant to be :biggrin:

I think the biggest difference to Selby's top game in this season is that his safety game is significant weaker than it has been during most of the last few years.

But that is the rock of his B to whichever letter game - and the shot selections have been odd at times. (AS above I have seen a fair few of his matches this season, and China showed tints and hints of his previous levels: ie not a fully fledged return, imho.

Perry is getting worse, though......
