One of the things I like about the official live snooker stream is how you can see the arena well before play starts, and during intervals. Makes me feel like I am actually there, rather than thousands of miles away Really looking forward to this session now.

No fan of Selby, but for me it's a bit like the Trump v Robertson match, it's sort of supporting somebody by default, by which I mean I will support Selby. Have never been a huge fan of Trump, but he was spot on not to celebrate or congratulate that rather vulgar celebration of 100 100s, and Trump was also right that a single 147 is a better achievement.

Two good sessions to come today I think, shame they can't easily bring the evening session forward in order to give the players some rest before tomorrow.
It's been discussed on here before about the final lacking something in recent years maybe due to hard semi-finals for the other players.
I do think something could be done to re-arrange the sessions so they all finish by tea-time today or so both would have today of not matter what but I do understand the box office side of it wouldn't like this.
I hope Robertson wins today but think it will be close, what's wrong with self confidence if you don't have it in snooker I don't think you'd get very far.

Disappointment turns to resentment for me today:
"Hello, I have a ticket for Ronnie's match this afternoon, but obviously he's finished. I presume I can get a refund on the ticket?"
"We don't refund on snooker tickets - there'll be an exhibition match taking place instead, so your ticket is valid for that."
"Oh. Well who's playing the exhibition?"
"Worldsnooker can't confirm that yet."
I live an hour away from Sheffield - I'm not terribly happy at ticket price plus 20 quid fuel and a fiver for parking is going to be worth it for TBA vs TBC.
Really, the more I learn about the ticketing arrangements, the more I lean towards the conclusion that WorldSnooker doesn't really like snooker fans.

That is out of order, you should be entitled to a refund.

Sounds good! Another 147 for Hendry at the Crucible maybe???
My favourite players: Walter Lindrum (AUS), Neil Robertson (AUS), Eddie Charlton (AUS), Robby Foldvari (AUS), Vinnie Calabrese (AUS), Jimmy White, Stephen Hendry, Alex Higgins, Ronnie O'Sullivan, Dominic Dale and Barry Hawkins.
I dream of a 147 (but would be happy with a 100)
