The Snooker Thread (Part 1)

Have you seen his wife? She’s a big oul unit. Lots of comfort eating going on in that family I’d imagine.

Ronnie 4-1 up on Stuart Bingham here and looking good to face Barry Hawkins in the final tomorrow.

the greatest snooker player of all time

Take that Robertson you cunt :ronnyroar:

Imperious from Ronnie. After losing the first frame he reels off ten in a row for a 10-1 win and a record equalling 6th Masters title.

the greatest of them all. GOAT

I see Ronny was on for a 147 in the Welsh open. Asked what the prize pot was for it and was told it was only €10k, so he potted a pink instead and got 146 as some sort of protest. :grinning:

he mugged off Barry Hearn, good and proper, 10k is a joke for such a prestigious achievement

The Rocket at his ridiculous best as he dismisses world number 61 Tian Pengfei 4-0…

1-0: 110 break
2-0: 90 break
3-0: 112 break
4-0: 102 break

Pot success 98%

Ken Doherty is also through to the 3rd round after defeating world number 21 David Gilbert 4-3, he faces Ali Carter in the last 32.

Tough draws for the young Irish contingent that qualified. Greg Casey really drew the short straw with a daunting opener against former world number 1 Ding Junhui.

Kildare cueman Josh Boileau didn’t fare much better drawing Matthew Stevens.

Brendan O’Donoghue Got a tough one too against recent UK championship semi finalist David Grace, David Morris has had a woeful season but could turn it around against Chris Melling who is a better pool player.

Ken Doherty has a tough draw against Andy Hicks and finally the tie of the round sees Fergal O’Brien face the living legend Steve Davis.

Tension already at boiling point at Pond’s Forge. Jamie Jones lost the run of himself as he won a tight 7th frame to reduce the deficit to 5-2 against Pakistan number 1 Hamza Akbar…

I’m giving my full support to the chap playing Peter Lines in Match 23.

Jimmy White has won the opening two frames in his match against Gerard Greene.

Excellent news. I’m very optimistic that this could finally be Jimmy’s year to win that elusive title.

Jimmy trails 5-4 overnight.

Jimmy will face Peter Ebdon in the next round if he makes it past Gerard Greene.

Ebdon beat James Wattana 10-6 in a glamour first round qualifier at Pond’s Forge International Leisure Centre.

@Elvis_Brandenberg_Kr Peter Lines leads 9-0. Looks like it’s hard lines for your man Ng On Yee.
