The Snooker Thread (Part 1)

Great shot by selby

25 minutes now of Selby playing for snookers.

An outrageous fluke by Selby has thrown him a lifeline in this frame.

The pressure of the crucible

Joe Johnson summed it up well there earlier - Selby is probably a trickier opponent when heā€™s playing badly than when heā€™s playing well.

Why did Selby pot that brown? Strange decision.

Mark Selby should be called the Molester from Leicester.

Wonā€™t take no for an answer and is extremely difficult to shake off.

Ding dong frame there

Two snookers required on the pink. I want another half an hour of this.

Ding finally takes the frame after 61 minutes, but Selby comes back to the table needing two snookers on the pink :slight_smile:

What a contrast he is to Leicesterā€™s other famous snooker player, the swashbuckling Willie Thorne.

Fuck sake, Selby is some pain in the hole, give it up fella

His safety play is brilliant

Itā€™s over!

45 minutes worth of needing snookers. :smile:

Selby was like yer man from Wolf Creek in that frame.

:grin:

It needs to be because his scoring is a long way short of the level of the other top players. Breaks down again there on 27 when he really should have been winning the frame in one visit.

Heā€™ll probably win the frame in another half hour or so but again balls in prime position to be cleared up but Selby can only add another 34 on his next scoring visit.

My sky box has just clapped out . No bs , Iā€™m fucking seething here.

In Kerry football parlance, Selby won that frame in the previous frame.

Selby makes 20 with a great chance.
