Hehe Steve you numpty, classic.

Yeah that was very funny

Watch a replay if you can. It showed it in slow motion at the start of the first frame.
Selby looked like he was trying to psyche ronnie out with the handshake. Ronnie looked away from him.

another costly error from selby?

[cueman]

Selby is petrified, literally bricking it. So much tension in his cue arm, he is gone already. Ronnie could seriously have this title wrapped up today.

Some sloppy shots here and there from Selby.

Was Selby trying to get inside Ronnie's head with that handshake?
Last person who tried that was Ali Carter two years ago. It seemed to just make Ronnie more determined to hammer him.

What happened? I'm not aware of the situation.

Hutch

Great safety lol

[alphabetagaga]

good pressure from ros 2-0

[Ronnie's tip]

Reminds me of the black he potted for the 147 at the UK.

[Ronnie's tip]

Why did ROS play for a colour there???

Could cost him with Selby needing a snooker.

Ronnies off to a flying start and is cueing beautifully.

[Ronnie's tip]

I've noticed over the last year or so ROS hasn't had much luck with going into the pack, but it's happened so often it might not be luck and just technique. It could explain why he's more likely to pick off easy reds than he used to be.

Indeed very important I feel for Selby to take the 2nd.

[cyberheater]

Missed black by Selby. Ronnie's got him already
