I know it's a novel idea. But why don't you try. Just for once. And I know this sounds really radical. But try not putting any money on anyone and enjoy the game for what it is. Crazy I know but give it a go.

I'm pretty sure 'mr red' doesn't understand this novel concept...

I do that when I am interested in a match ..... these two the way they r playing r not worth watching .. so I needed to spice it up a bit

[daffie]

Whether I win or lose the bet ... Robbo is pathetic right now and Milkman has always been useless ... I dun think how can u enjoy this standard of play ... I can't ... yeah I am spoilt

??!! wtf just happened...did the world stop turning...no, brusque found the black ink...never thought I'd see the day

[brusque]

guys keep ur wisdom to urself ... its my money not urs so i decide how I use it .... if u r watching the same match as i am n u think this standard is even watchable then u surely have not seen much on a snooker table

I like the crappy scrappy matches almost as much as the top breaks. It's all part of the game and it shows that they are mere mortals as well. As I don't have a financial stake in the outcome. I can enjoy it for what it is. The intriguing ebb and flow of matchplay snooker. You should try the same.

Nice one Robbo! 2-2 it is.

I love "scrappy" frames when I see some classy safety and tactical awareness ... missing sitters that a club player won't hardly makes it exciting.

I am not saying it coz i have money on him but I have really not seen Robbo play worse than this in the past 5 years

the last time I saw Robertson play worst than this was when he tried out the Silver Cup silver/grey or was it tan chalk

Frames like frame 4 make me wonder if snooker is a clean sport .... forget that I have a bet on him but I honestly cannot digest the balls Robbo has missed .... I mean come on ... one mistake can be a lapse of concentration or a kick .. but to miss so many easy balls at this level ... kinda fishy .... Stephen Lee did less than this and got stuffed .. poor guy

Have you ever played snooker?

[Atypical Male]

I came here to the forum to echo some sentiments which I see others have already posted.

I only get to watch mathes sporadically here and there... today happens to be such a day. Robbo's the one who I most like to watch, so if I see that he's on-tap for a match when I have the time to watch, I try to catch it.

So what I'm saying is this: it's not like I've been able to watch TONS of matches, of Neil's or anyone elses... but amongst those I have seen him play, this is by far the worst I've seen him play. He's (unfortunately, for us Robbo fans) just very, very badly off-form today.

Let's hope he gets his head on straight during the interval, and (should he escape with a win today) have himself better prepared for the next match in a few day's time.

Now there's a point......

[Miss Ellie]

Whenever I put money on a guy he plays as if he is a club amateur ... Robbo is clearly there to be taken ... I doubt Milkman is the guy to take advantage. At least that is my hope or I will be a very poor guy in a couple of hours

Can't believe Neil is missing what he is missing tbh, obviously an off day for him.

You can't play brilliantly all the time, otherwise we would all be World Champion, it's an evil game this, your form deserts you for no apparent reason !!
