Oh no! My favorite player is out!

The first round of Shanghai Masters hasn’t ended yet and already a few surprise results. That inspired me to put this poll up.

doesn't matter ....i actually enjoy the snooker more because theres not the tension of watching a favorite play anymore

[ferret]

Yeah same as that, I love watching the game but do not have a favorite that I will back from start to finish, there are always players you will back more than others for me its Matthew Stevens, Joe Swail and Michael Holt.

I have a number of players that I like and some that I dont like. If all the ones I like have been eliminated and I dont like any of the remaining players I wont bother to watch.

It's about the characters as much as the snooker for me.

My favourite player IS out!!!

But I'm still here and I'm still watching and I will be here when Ali Carter wins!!!!

[RocketRoy1983]

I thought your favourite player was Carter. I continue watching nonetheless.

[very.tee]

I have 2 and just can't choose between them to save my life (obviously the other one's Mark Selby)

[RocketRoy1983]

Lol ok fair enough. I have about 10 favourites so its understandable

[spike]

I have no real favourites so to speak, so whoever get's knocked out early or late in a tournament does not in anyway ruin my overall enjoyment of watching the beautiful game..

[lclichen]

when my favorite player is out, I can focus more on the game. gimme one reason to quit watching

[TheOiy]

My answer is "I have many favourite players, they can't be all outed!" Atleast someone will be left or else I will find someone I like to watch.... Flexie me!

[wildJONESEYE]

I thought your favourite player was Carter. I continue watching nonetheless.

that makes 2 of us lol

I continue watching the event even if there isn’t any player I particularly like left, obviously as for me what really matters is the sport itself.

[crucible77]

Unfortuanetley Dan Wells didnt qualify, but it dosent matter because I cant watch it as I am at school anyway!

[Rane]

I still have two left, but I keep on watching anyway. You never really know, when the great matches comes up. Bingham - Davis two years ago at the Cruicible was a match I didn´t expect much from, but what a drama, and the same with Bond - Hendry the same year.
