World Snooker Championships 2010

[Cardboard Box City]

I've only been watching for some 14 minutes now and already John Virgo's commentary has annoyed me.

John Higgins v Barry Hawkins

Mark King v Steve Davis

Neil Robertson v Fergal O'Brien

Marco Fu v Martin Gould

.....................................

Ali Carter v Jamie Cope

Joe Perry v Michael Holt

Ding Junhui v Stuart Pettman

Shaun Murphy v Gerard Greene

.....................................

Stephen Maguire v Stephen Lee

Peter Ebdon v Graeme Dott

Mark Allen v Tom Ford

Ryan Day v Mark Davis

.....................................

Mark Selby v Ken Doherty

Stephen Hendry v Zhang Anda

Mark Williams v Marcus Campbell

Ronnie O'Sullivan v Liang Wenbo

Mark Selby (8/1) and Mark Williams (10/1) who's been rolling back the years look like decent bets outside of O'Sullivan and Higgins. An each way on Shaun Murphy (14/1), Stephen Hendry (40/1), or Mark Allen (16/1) could also be worthwhile

Stephen Hendry is one frame away from going out to Zhang Anda, its currently 9-7

Looks like he might pull it back!

I didn't even realised it had started! Snooker's a great way to pass a couple of lazy hours! Just want I need in the run up to exams

[Cardboard Box City]

Hendry will play Mark Selby in the second round on Sunday. Should be a good match, depending on how well Hendry plays

[The Nal]

Ronnies match being on during the day is shit.

Think Ken Doherty may be finished. And the way Hendry was talking yesterday after the match, hes close to it too.

[beLIEveR]

I don't really follow snooker, but didn't Hendry say he would have retired if he's lost that match?

Steve Davis is playing tonight

[Cardboard Box City]

I thought he'd switched to poker and pool?

[Cardboard Box City]

Marco Fu's the first seed out the door. He lost to Martin Gould who looks like a right oddball.

[The Nal]

Ronnie in trouble already!!

[Cardboard Box City]

Surprised he hasn't done it again already, he's played terribly in this opening frame.

OMG... O LORDY f**kIN MAMA..... i`m shocked to the core... Just seen Alex Higgins!

He is a coffin with clothes on. He looks absolutely f**ked. He`s only 61 too.

Drink, smokes, life-style, temperament...all have taken their toll.

Quite sad.

Where'd you see him?

Edit: Sweet Jesus.

Kinda looks like this

[Cardboard Box City]

Steve Davis is in the second round!

Anyone see how emotional he got towards the end?

Ronnie talking shit again.

[Cardboard Box City]

1/4 of the players in the last 16 will be called Mark. If would have been 5 if Mark King had got through.

[gratedenini]

Great to see!! Delighted. Superb match and lovely to see him so happy in the post match interview. He reverted to a child like state! No chance of him beating Higgins though.

Ronnie talking shit again.

I woke up at 4am this morning--on the settee--i`d pissed mesell.... when i glanced over---your f**kin pics of Higgins and that Monkey were right in me face...i must have pissed mesell in me sleep.

[Cardboard Box City]

Yeah--was great wasn`t it--i missed Family Guy for that!!

Just shows you though eh.... how age changes your attitude..image him 20yrs ago doing a little jig like he did when that white moved a full ball towards the red?

And then talking to the ref while setting the balls up.

I want him to win now... cos he seems vunerable.. on the baize that is.

And dont mention Higgins... I woke up at 4am this morning--on the settee--i`d pissed mesell.... when i glanced over---your f**kin pics of Higgins and that Monkey were right in me face...i must have pissed mesell in me sleep.
