UK Championship 25/11 - 7/12

I'd like to see Jimmy do well today.

[snookerball]

Higgins definitely I think Fu will scrape through.

[Rocket147]

I can see Higgins and Fu losing today.

Hopefully it will stay stormy until next sunday night

The weather forecast is giving storms tomorrow in york

I foresee a Jimmy White win.

If TheWind wins the first frame, lets see what happens then...
:triumphant:

Robertson, Trump, Ding and Murphy could win it all
however so could several others. Its always tough to
predict a winner.

[snookerball]

From what you guys have seen in the 1st round, who do you think will go far in this tournament? Bingham, Robertson and Maguire look good. Ronnie produced a professional performance but may be forced to withdraw. Shaun Murphy not at his best but through. Selby eased through.

I'm not surprised about Carter defeat on 1st round, recently he had health problems and probably isn't in his best condition yet.
Shaun Murphy wasn't at his best, but was enough to win.
Daniel Wells play better than I expect.

I heard Carter had an excellent chance in the final 11th frame to claim victory over Zhang Anda but unfortunately could not take his chance. Carter himself, however, said that he felt he played awful during the match and needs to go back to the drawing board but he may not be able to rediscover his best form after what he's been through. I hope to see him play well at the Masters though.

HI I remember watching Alex Higgins play Stephen Hendry in the Irish Masters and he broke his foot and still
won the final against Stephen Hendry

I hope Ronnie Osullivan is feeling better and plays his match on Sunday
Cheers Leonard

[Rocket147]

HI Hope Ronnie Plays on Sunday without Ronnie its not worth watching
he is one of a kind Strickly Genius

Ronnie, at his best, is levels above everyone else, but come on, there are still plenty of solid players worth watching and some very interesting match ups to come. To say the tournament isn't worth watching without Ronnie tells me you're not a devout snooker fan.
