Thank you both but no luck on my end. I'll keep searching.

If you have Betfair (betfair.com) then it should be easily viewable through the Exchange - for some reason the other side wasn;t showing Eurosport Player matches the other week.

i was very impressed by ROS workmanlike approach to this game
seemed like he wanted to make it straightforward and dull (cant be dull with 2 consec. tons) just waiting for Muprh to implode

It's the same templates that are used at all the tournaments that's for sure but I think the table fitters can be a bit "creative" when they are cutting and assembling the pockets. That's just my opinion and not based on any facts. For years now I've had a suspicion that the pockets are "tweaked" depending on what/where the tournament is. Maybe I'm just one of those people who always thinks there's a conspiracy going on lol.

I agree with that. I also don't know why WS are so secretive about their pocket templates, there doesn't seem to be any reason for it.

I don’t get it. Be it any table, WS has the same pocket template right? Or, is it changeable? As, they never reveal the specifications.

Seeing as both Mark Allen and Ronnie have said the pockets are a bit generous will Selby's max be ratified ?
If so we should go back and make John Spencer the first to make an official max in a tournament.

Table wars, Star knew that Rasson would do what they first did and supply a table with 'generous' pockets to make their product look better, so Star did this last week in china.
Mark Allen's short cue action can't really go wrong on super fast tables with big pockets that are dead level, nothing has to be walloped, balls go in off either jaw at pace, too easy.

Like watching 9 ball, make it harder Barry, constant tons on tv will kill it at amateur level when new people have a go down the local, fail and give up.

Foulds made the point this week that Trump crumbles if\when players stand up against him; and with Murphy I think the battering he got after winning that has scarred and scared him.

It does loop back to the Jack exchange, above, imho and is my point about his improvement.

[jonny66]

I wouldn't say Murphy is spineless, Ronnie just makes players look like that sometimes. The clearance to win last years CoC showed he's got some balls.

[fkhan]

Last years final saw the same players as today. Just the result was the other way around.

He beat him in their third(?) last clash.
