They love Ding in Wuhan. He’s a superstar.

I find the lighting a little too bright for the tv tables. Is it just me?

It is often that Chinses cameras are set to a different setting and things tend to be a lot brighter, high contrast, and intensity of colours

Not just you

Thanks for confirming.

Is Judd Trump playing Oliver Lines today? I can't see the match on the Snooker.org page but Round 3 has the winner of that match playing Matthew Selt.

What I keep asking myself is... is Liam Highfield just very stubbornly trolling or does he actually mean it?

Other than that... what's wrong with Neil Robertson recently?

You are right, the Trump/OLines match was scheduled for today and the winner of that will play Selt which is scheduled for tomorrow but I assume they have it postponed to see how long it takes Trump to travel to Wuhan
I have not seen any news of Trump not turning up, so he appears to be travelling

Sounds very plausible to me. I couldn't see anything on the socials about Judd not going.

As a side note DeanH just a red and a green for you and you're on 20,000

You've seen me play?!

Watching the Robertson/Highfield match and I see the just stop oil mob have spread stuff all over the table, oh no, my mistake it's just five pounds of chalk.

just heard commentary that Judd is playing Oli Lines tomorrow 0300(UK)
and I think he will play the Selt match in the evening session (12:30UK)

Good man, thanks for that. Even though I work in snooker I don't get to watch or listen during work hours so rely on what I can find on the internet.

Another early bath for Robertson, he's having a terrible run lately and I'm beginning to wonder if he's going to become a bit like Shaun Murphy as a player in that he just rides out his career with the odd great performance here and there.

It's been a while now he's struggled and just seems a bit flat out there.

#42, He's actually done really well for himself though.
I mean coming all the way from Australia and didnt he get relegated after his first spell on the tour.
Not saying you're implying it but his possible decline or relegation is hardly worthy of any violins when you look at the exclusivity of the sport.
He's 27th on the end of season rankings i'm sure he'll be fine.

Players revolt?

No correct, agree totally Trains. I’ve got zero violins for him personally speaking. I guess I’m a little surprised more than anything and thought there was more in the tank etc. if players like Anda continue to bloom his days are done maybe.
