    "Remember you promised to lose the eighth frame. I've put five thousand pounds on it as we agreed." :biggrin:




    Sorry, couldn't resist.


    He just told him that Wilson hat nosebleed and it would take a few minutes and if he wanted to leave the room for this time span.

    Good century from Kyren likes-to-put-his-chalk-on-the-cushion Wilson.

    this is when I think that the gap between the rounds need to be longer. Higgins clearly exhausted.

    Yup, anyone that's been watching a while can see there's plenty of balls going in that shouldn't, but seems some are too busy drinking the commentator kool aid that the pockets are as tight as a ducks arse.

    Higgins seems pretty aggressive at this World Championship. Already against Trump he took on some pots where I actually expected him to play a safety. Especially cause he was clearly superior in the safety department.

    That's the same thing i say, but a few pages back he want on a ramble about how its down to cloth etc, apparently a 7 time world champion hasn't a clue what he's talking about.

    Wilson will do well to get out of this session 2-6
