2015 Betfred World Snooker Championship Qualifying Draw

[The Statman]

And Davis books his place in his 100th World Championship match - surpassing Hendry's total of 99.

Where abouts are these stats? How many has Ronnie played now?

Jimmy White is actually third with 95, O'Sullivan is next on 87.

Jim 0-2 down back to 2-2 now, come on.

[jw147]

4-2 jimmy, come on

[Kebabman]

5-3 to Jimmy now. Shame it isn't on one of the TV tables.

Yes mate would of been good viewing, im sure this match is what the 99% of the fans in the arena came to see

[Terry Davidson]

I have to admit some of these matches have been real dogs, to the point that I have turned off the snooker as I'm just not interested in watching some of these players and continuously wondering why they take so long over shot selection when the shot is obvious and then painfully watching them blow the shot. I have to say I prefer the Ronnie way where he spots his shot as he walks to the table and takes it rather that walking around the table 3 times trying to decide what he's going to do.

Sometimes I feel like throwing my cue at the TV but then I'd just have to buy a new TV or cue or both.

Well what you just said, explains why ronnie lost last years world final
Im sure if there was a tv in front of him, hes have thrown his cue at it!

Terry - get one of those foam bricks - works wonders - cue and TV are safe then

[Terry Davidson]

I just had the snooker on hoping to catch Jimmy. Although I don't mind Milkins I still turned it off so I can get ready to practice. Just not motivated enough I guess to watch when I need to shave and shower.

lol wed all need one of them watching some players, naming no names, it took a player 7 minutes lasnight to play a simple safety shot, if i had a real brick my laptop would now be out of order

Noppon : Kleckers 4:5

Come on Lukas! :snooker:

[Terry Davidson]

Was watching Holt/6 vs Lyu/5. The terms 'watching paint dry' or 'watching the grass grow' spring to mind. It shows there is a very real gap between the top pros and those ranked in lower tiers.

[robertmac]

Yes both the Holt and Selt matches show how huge
that gap is unfortunately.

[jw147]

The wee chinese fella has had enough chances against selt to be well clear by now, and instead hes behind

I still fancy him to beat selt

[GeordieDS]

It's probably better not to watch rather than watch and moan incessantly about how bad it is?
