Nope, because he does it a lot. Pot a red and lay a snooker. I'm perfectly aware it is not against the rules but hopefully some people agree it lacks in panache a little bit.

Right then, in that situation what do you think Selby should of done ehh ?????????????????????

[daffie]

I never knew that, White is having a pop at everything now, decider alert.

Yeah...until White missed another easy red...incredible really. Still could turn out a decider...I hope so.

Hi folks, I was just watching the Selby match and the ref should of called a free ball, because it clearly was a free ball. Mark Selby was not in the wrong there the referee was.

It looked like a free ball from the camera angle, but Leo was right behind the line of the shot, perhaps we'll see a still frame from hawkeye, but will they show it if it proves a ref wrong?

[P.Smith]

I'd be careful if I were you...don't wanna get sucked into an argument with the Selby haters...it's no use, don't even try...total waste of your time&energy. These people do not understand anything about snooker.

I think I'll take your advice on that one mate.

i rewinded it a few times, studyied it hard and got my ruler out ,
and selby assumed it was a free ball because he had looked at it, why would selby make a mistake like that. The ref forgot to call it!

Nah sorry mate you can't say that without a proper camera angle

Nothing else. I was just pointing out the fact that at the time I started watching, he was playing this shot. I did so in order to underline the fact that he plays this kind of shots everytime he can not just when he has no other choice. I may not understand snooker (sorry guys, my bad!), others just don't understand irony.

Nope...Selby wouldn't be laughing his tits off like he did if that was the case.

Its a shame its not live on the BBC, I'd liked to have heard Hendry and Davis' thoughts on it.

Hahaha...that is one severe case of back paddling if I ever heard one

Great performance by White to take it to a decider

Indeed! Very strange match, like both players decided not to make a real effort to win but just run out the clock Looking forward to a quirky final frame

I think Selby is more likely to make the mistake than the referee in this situation, being in the heat of the moment and all that.
