Short format, but not bad value considering the dog shit in this group
Just watching Trump-Slessor now, 1-0. Trump has won all 4 frames but should have lost probably 3 of them.

Is Luca Brecel the snooker equivalent of Dimitri Van Den Burgh?
I remember when he first came onto the scene and he was touted as the "next big thing."

I only make the comparison as both are Belgian, both are still at a young age in their careers and when I was briefly watching earlier, the commentator mentioned he was in the top 10 or close and is now ranked #37.

I like tennis and rugby.
I'll watch Wimbledon and the Six Nations and the Rugby World Cup but I'm not an avid fan.
With the snooker it depends who is playing.

I guess it's an "occasion" or a prestige event.
