The match in question was the First Round of the Welsh Open against Joe Perry. King lost 4-0 and apparently there was a lot of money for Perry in the match.

King potted the first red and check his attempt at the brown after that...

Listening to how startled the commentator sounded about the miss too.

As a snooker casual, very casual, the news is a bit of a shocker. Mark King is prominent. I have heard of and seen him for years.

Does he have any reputation for being a bad egg?

Nothing for match fixing but he's spoken about problems with gambling.

Plus anyone ranked where he is, and most of the Chinese players who are suspended, is hardly making any money out of snooker right now.

Imagine having to set aside a special week for trying being a nice person. And then ending up making violent threats on day 6.

I remember King getting very emotional after winning his only TV Ranking event.

Sad to see if he’s found guilty.

Has there ever been any proof MVG ever tested or has taken it?
