A long jail sentence surely awaits?

Table 2 abandoned for the evening and will be re-clothed overnight. This is going to cause absolute mayhem to the schedule. The Gentleman and the Milkman will now start tomorrow at 7pm.

With the concluding session being played on Thursday at 9.30am. Normally a rest morning and a chance for all the crew to have a lie-in. Not now. 😕 Thanks to those two absolute bell-ends, they have caused severe disruption to the tournament.

It's like Wimbledon having a tennis match on the middle Sunday. Bloody inconvenient to everyone. 😡

I watched the incidents unfold at the time and I was shocked. They could have had KNIVES and slashed the cloths! What were security doing beforehand? Nothing obviously.

I apologise for my strong comments earlier but I love snooker and don't like to see these thugs win and disrupt snooker players and supporters messed about. I hope the tournament carries on without any further bad incidents.

Back to the lovers of snooker and Mark Allen progressed 10-5 late last night (after the lengthy delay) to set up a belting second round clash against Stuart Bingham.

The Pistol v Ball Run is worthy of a final in itself if both players bring their A* game to the table for that one. (y)

Just shows the strength in this World Championship Ball Run v The Pistol would be an excellent final let alone Round of 16 matchup. Lovely to see the Wizard of Wishaw in such immaculate form this afternoon.

The so-called Jester from Leicester has stopped the rot with a scrappy win in frame 6, and leads 4-2 against Selt.

The Milkman has delivered this morning... 7-2 down to 9-8 up, Perry wins the 18th... so we go to a decider!

I think about 10 Chinese players were suspended a couple of months ago. Would have been in smaller tournaments they were caught but watching over last few days it must be the easiest game to cheat in. Only have to be say 6 inches short on a safety shot and game lost.

Massive shock as The Magician bows out in a 10-9 thriller!!!

Jai Ho progresses to the Round of 16

I used to hang about with someone who was quite high up in snooker and some of the story’s I’ve heard about these small tournaments and the premier lge was quite an eye opener

I've only just seen that David Grace wasn't exactly 'Amazing' against Higgins :lolol:

Maybe next year...

Licensed to Thrill/Jackpot v Jai Ho/The Milkman


@crodonilson - Ronnie 'The Rocket' O'Sullivan
@Napier - 'Sexbomb' Gary Wilson
@pb21 - 'Just Jak' Jak Jones
@Is it PotG? - 'The Brave Belgian Bullet' Luca Brecel
@Beach Hut - 'Licensed to Thrill' Anthony MacGill
@Jim D - 'Jai Ho' Si Jiahui
@SpongebobSquarepants - Robert 'The Milkman' Milkins
@Muzzman - Jack 'Jackpot' Lisowski
@Papak - 'The Wizard of Wishaw' John Higgins
@Durlston - 'The Pistol' Mark Allen

Just sat down to watch some of the evening frames. Quite surprised my man Just Jak Jak Jones is still in this. Seen a bit of his games and he has looked very promising.

My money would be on the Jester from Leicester, looking very sound IMO.

I got on Si at 33/1 for the whole thing when he was halfway through dismantling Sean Murphy. His long-pots are something else.

He put away Milkins today, humping him 13-7 this afternoon, so dunno what odds he's at now. Logic dictates he'll be ground down by someone with experience on their game, but he's a hell of a prospect.
