I know. it's almost disturbing how dismal his reactions were, especially when you think about what it would have meant to Ding/China had he won. Ah well. Ding did ok for much of the game, but 0-6 was too much of a hole to get out of.

Selby and his brand of anti-snooker can fuck right off.

He winced a little, vaguely, for a moment, then went back to normal.

Stopclock comedy snooker on the rankings table, laughable. Perhaps he's pissed off that so many of the big name players aren't turning up for it.

Barry Hearn @BarryHearn
Loving the dialogue on the Shoot out becoming a ranking event. Let me stress - ALL players eligible to a snooker event equals ranking status

Not a chance you could play 127 matches over 3 days, will involve pre-qualifing, so 128 players will have to trek to Gloucester or Barnsley or whetever to play one fucking frame to get into the event proper.

At least the amounts involved wont shake up the rankings, so its effect will be very minimal. If you add £32k onto Robin Hull's total he is still nowhere near getting into the Top 16, as an example.

O'Sullivan vs Selby going just how I expected it to go.

Selby up 4-2, and has won both of the really long tactical frames.

I enjoy the style.

People watch snooker for the strategy not the flash breaks.

Selby was 7-2 up.

Now 7-5.

Setting up to be a lovely ending.
