Well, not a bad first day of World Championship I must say. Enjoyable Williams vs Gould, monster Robertson (not sure Georgiou is still that happy he has played at the Crucible for the first time), Macguire has his usual look kind-of-angry-but-maybe-it-is-just-my-impression... has Tian been paid to wear Calvin Klein underwear or he has just forgotten his belt?

That's how it works in real life at least. :smile:

For a minute i thought that Tian guy was using a cue i sold a year or 2 back to a Chinese buyer, an old parris paragon. Pretty similar looking stick he has.

Whatever happened the little shelf the star tables had near the baulk line on either side for players to put their extensions on? That side view of the table with Maguire breaking showed they're not on this table. They were in some tournaments earlier in the season.

The way Martin is playing right now reminds me of the second session of his match against Robbo in 2010. I would love to see this year's first decider!

Wasn't enough liquor in the house to fully commit to the rule of your game

Hit and hope by Maguire with two reds potted in the second frame? That's promising to get a very interesting evening.
