Yeh wtf was that about ralph?

He had a half-table shot at the last red which was very tight but he could just squeeze past the black and pot it.

He asked the ref. to clean the black but he refused presumably because he thought he was angle shooting.

Would have been funny if he'd cleaned it and replaced it so that he couldn't get at the red.

I once saw Alex higgins do something similar twenty-odd years ago.

That Selby result was a real shocker and means definately no profit for the tournament now  Cry

I'm not sure if he was angle shooting or not - it looked like he easily had enough room to get past the black - but surely there was as much chance of the ref putting the black ball in a slightly worse position than a slightly better one!!!

I have two tickets for the final, the final session, starting 7pm monday night.

Row G, 59/60 seats, think thats just above the green pocket.

I'm struggling to get there, £65 each (face value) if anyone wants them.  Can post special delivery today or tomorrow, which is about £5 I think.

PM or post on here ASAP, cheers.

i'll have them if the other 2 takers fall through.

it does sound a bit odd but what other reason is there for having the black cleaned there? unless there's an obvious mark on it but I'm assuming there wasn't as surely the ref would've agreed to do it if there was

How is Trump 4-1 outsider of 4, in his form?

Ding is 11/4 3rd of 4..and they play each other


the value in the winner of that semi, surely?

it keeps getting mentioned that he's not been tested yet/has no form in coming from behind so presumably this is being reflected in the odds as the matches get longer. can't see that it matters though when you're playing as well as he is, it's hard to see him going far behind to anyone

I'm quite strong on Williams now as he seems to have expended the least energy thus far.
