Masters 2010 1st round discussion..

[Odrl]

Well, what can you say? McLeod had an easy chance on the black and a fairly easy clearance, and he refused it. I don't know what he was thinking, but he's not going to win this match by playing like that.

[Looki]

One thing i'm hoping for with today's matches is that we get to see some close finishes, unlike yesterday with all three matches being very one-sided..

Yes, and also quite scrappy apart from the end of Ebdon v Fu match which was pretty good standard.

Rory had like 3 or 4 chances there, couldn't take them.. It's a bit scrappy at times, not Mark Williams kind of game. Hopefully he stays focused.

[cue1]

He's looking alright so far

Rory hasn't really kicked off yet...

Come On Mark J:snooker:

He actually can't get going at the moment

But hopefully, he'll hear our cheers soon enough

What were the theme songs?

[spike]

I think it's going to be a tough battle between Williams and McLeod, but Williams supporters will be pleased to hear that i think Mark will scrape through 6-4..

[Looki]

C'mon Mark!!!

I was just about to say that Mark Williams could struggle today, especially as it's a morning match with very little atmosphere probably. But I see there's actually a large crowd today, so it could bring out the best in both players.

It tough to predict with Williams. His game ranges from brilliant to embarrassing. What will it be today?

[doorag]

Ahhhh a bit of Bob Marley

Jimmy and Mark was a awful game. Good to see it was played in a good atmosphere though.

I especially fascinated the final frame, where a tight battle happened and ended up with King's flashy long pots.. Better than I expected

Now I'm looking forward to this day. But I'm not happy about missing Mark's match due to an exam. Hopefully will be back on time to catch some of the action

I predicted Selby, King and Ebdon would win in an accumulator bet. Just need Murphy, Ronnie, Day and Higgins to win and im laughing. Great atmosphere tonight although both King and Jimmy will be disappointed with their overall performance I really enjoyed it.

What a walkout earlier from both players, if you didn't see it via the red button lets hope they show the whole bit later on bbc2. Mark King was classic when he came out and the cheers for Jimmy were great also.

I can't wait to hear the rockets theme tune, just a shame Jimmy didn't used Encore(numb) from Jay-Z but maybe next round if he gets there.

I was also thought Ding would do better today but Mark does know how to slow people down when he needs to but hopefully just a bad day in the office for Ding and he can still do well in the remaining racking events and get into the top 5 for next year.
