WC 2010 - R1 discussion

A great clearance for Carter. So this match looks like it's not going to go close at all. And Cope will now probably finish 17th in the rankings.

[Mr P]

This is shocking snooker from Cope, about to got 7-1 down...

Ali Carter,so boring to watch....Jeesus

Cope loses his head playing against that child Ali Carter.

Shelby was brilliant and can go long way.

[Elaine]

nice win for Mark quite convincing
shame though he didn't get a max, that would be something special to end the match like that

Even with the slowed down replay, I (and the commentators) couldn't make out if the brown had been hit before the green, so I guess she made the right decision.

Yes, it was definitely at least simultaneous, if not the brown first.

Phew!!! Tense 4th frame between Ali & Jamie but Ali just potted frame ball blue & it's 3-1 Ali @ the MSI

Come On Ali!!! :snooker:

And if Mark keeps his head together here, it should be 10-4

Come on Mark!!!

Edit: Mark on a maximum

Edit2: Grrrrrr, I jinxed him but he wrapped up the match 10-4

Did you hear Michaela ask what the commentators were saying when she was trying to work out whether there had been a foul on the green or not? Never heard a ref ask that before!

[Masterdoctorgenius]

[cue1]

Lol, Mark potted the last black with the butt of the cue

He leads 9-4 @ the MSI...

[cue1]

After the first 2 frames, it looked like Mark could wrap it up before the MSI but Ken just won the 12th frame. 8-4 Selbs

Come On Mark!!!

On the other table, Jamie got his first frame on the board... 2-1 Ali :snooker:

Come On Ali!!! :snooker:

[cue1]

From Sport has both tables

Mark & Ali won their first frame of the session :snooker:

[ADR147]

well for some reason freeview is only covering one table!

[cue1]

I'm between 2 minds... I don't know which match to follow

I think I'll stick to Selbs for a while Hopefully he can finish it off asap then I can watch Ali

Come On Mark!!!

And...

Come On Ali!!! :snooker:

[ore]

5-4 to Fu, so not too bad.
Hope Fu continues missing those balls
