2020 Masters - 1st round discussion

I would actually love to watch some more, but I had to turn it off when Jimmy White started saying Higgins' concentration is always 100%. Dreadful analysis, as usual. :smile:

Indeed. Your common sense should tell you already that your concentration can't be always at 100 % over the course of a snooker match. Commentators should delete the word "always" from their vocabulary.

They probably should, yes, but it bothers me even more that they would point out an attribute that has been a weakness for Higgins many times and pretend like it's one of his strengths. I don't think Foulds would have said something like that. :wink:

Happy birthday. I hope you get your wish. :smile:

I actually don't think it's even possible to have a "poor" QF line-up at the Masters at the moment, even if all the lower seeds win. I guess losing Trump and O'Sullivan, and maybe Selby, does leave a little void, but the gap between the other top8 players and the rest of the top16 is quite possibly at an all-time low. :smile:

No, Selby out is the biggest boost to the tournament; I will be watching all the matches now

Good to hear. :smile: So who is your least favourite player still left in the tournament now? Is it Wilson?

[trying]

Great opening red by Jack Lisowski! And a strong opening frame

As much as I love the chemistry and shot recreation from Jimmy and Whoisface, I’d never watch ES coverage when the beeb are on it. I know many don’t have the choice but...

[Odrl]

I get the feeling O'Sullivan doesn't really like Wilson much. :smile:

[trying]

I've got to say, though i couldn't say I don't like him, Wilson bugs me. The way he walks into the shot caressing his cue just niggles me and the daft beard ain't helping any.

[DeanH]

just watching the way Wilson places his feet - pointing inwards - makes my knees start to hurt!

[narl]

Lisowski seems to get worse as a game goes on, seen him get frames early before and then he starts to miss left and right.

[neuronic]

Enough now... banging on someone's appearance is just wrong.

Let's concentrate on the annoyance of the rub-rub

[Odrl]

Good stuff from Wilson after being down early on. With so many of the biggest names going out, he might have a great chance here. :smile:

[barrysnookerfan1985]

Impressive display from Kyren despite losing the First two frames, now looking forward to see who will triumph between Williams and Bingham
