2016 World Championship discussion

Ding's twitch is back.

[Le Ball Sack]

Ding has well and truly cocked this frame up.

[armstm]

Dings frames are a lot quicker, yes he took time there but its not a regular occurrence.

I really cant understand the hate against Selby. We know how he plays but if you are going to hate on him perhaps you should watch Ding's matches more closely as he too has taken a long time over shots, regularly having the cueball cleaned every 3 or 4 shots, walking around the table plenty. He took over 4 minutes on one snooker escape yesterday, the longest I've ever seen any player take over a shot!

For me they both have played slow this week to frustrate their opponent. Until the rules prohibit this, and you will not find one, they will continue to exploit it.

[JimMalone]

Ouch. That frame could hurt Ding.

[richo]

Dared to watch it, and a text book Selby frame. Snookers and 1 min 20 seconds every shot, and a win. I am sorry I just can't watch him, back to football.

[golferson123]

just a little trolling... sorry!

no probs, should have spotted it , my bad

[Odrl]

Selby got away with it a little, catching the yellow very thin on two of his snooker escapes and not leaving it on, but Ding really did play some stupid shots to lose that frame. It's the first time he has gone behind early on, so it will be interesting to see how he responds. :smile:

[richo]

I like the John Parrott quote. If you don't win the frame when you have the chance, prepare for 20 minutes of aggravation from Selby. Lol

[throtts]

Selby certainly did. Should never have reached that far though, black to yellow was poor. The balls never forgive yu, so damn true.

[Ethanat]

I am supporting Ding and that frame felt like a punch to my gut. But you gotta give it to Selby.

[Le Ball Sack]

This is almost 2005 O'Sullivan Ebdon levels of torture.

apart from the fact that your bottle is not good enough and your wig affects your alignment.

Hold on, you're having a go at my signature because I laughed at another person's comment?? Please explain yourself as I'm completely bemused by this

[PatBlock]

Ding getting down to play the shot, then putting Mark back in.

[scarfacechen]

Ding can't settle till he get a frame on scoreboard...

[richo]

Torture. But ding playing in to selbys hands by not winning frames with his chance. This could be very one sided.
