2018 World Championship

I just rewatced Liang's missed black for the second maximum, I think he got unexpected big bounce off the cushion when he potted the blue, hence got a worse position on pink, which cost him in the end. Really a shame.

As for the surprises so far, there were not many, only Yupeng and Joyce (Duffy is better than his rankings suggest, though) sticks out maybe. Some good performances with a lot of big breaks already, but some scrappy matches too. Anthony Hamilton had over 40 seconds average shot time, while this opponent had 35 seconds or so. It is a little bit too much, in my eyes.

Hamilton seems like a lovely chap and I will support him for that, but he is painstakingly slow. I don't really understand this thing where only players with a low average shot time are considered "interesting". It doesn't really make any sense if you understand the game, a terrible shot is a terrible shot, doesn't matter if it took 5 seconds or 50 to make it. Same goes for a great shot.

Talent of these lads at such a young age is scary. Stick 5 years experience onto either and you've got a hell of a player. Shame they couldn't both qualify as both would bring so much to the table at the crucible.

Nice to see Jamie Cope playing in the WC qualifiers. Haven't seen him playing for a while. I heard he had the yips and unfortunately came off the tour. He's a talented player.

I may be asking in the wrong section, however I'm wondering if you can predict the dates/tables (1 or 2) for the games. I know the top half is on Table 1 and bottom half on table 2 but any information on the schedule apart from that? Dates and session times?
