Can we get a link to that frame between Spencer and White? Sounds like it would be worth seeing. :smile:

And see why White never won as much as he "should" have.....

Who was Higgins playing when he took out some magazines to read?

Thanks. :smile: I was expecting some sort of 40-minute epic that drags on and on, but Spencer actually got all the snookers he needed in about 8 minutes. Pretty pathetic stuff from White in all honesty, didn't play a single decent shot in that entire exchange. The joke escape and the one he played as hard as he could were the worst, but his "normal" escapes were not much better either. If Spencer's intention really was just to unsettle White, he didn't really have to try very hard at all. :wink:

I noticed yesterday that the Stephen Maguire V Allan Taylor the first session of the match was refereed by the female referee (Not sure of her name, does anyone know her name), then the evening session was refereed by Colin Humphires, for what reason was the change of referee during the two sessions of the match or was the female referee moved to another match on another table.

I have seen this happen in the past, on the old Roll-on-Roll-off PTCs usually down to scheduling clashes, say a match is taking too long and the referee is scheduled to start a new match and they have a regulated time before starting a new match; so they get replaced so they can meet that requirement.
or something like that

Not sure why in a session-scheduled comp like the WSC Quals

"Jimmy has played careless to get into this position" And I thought the improper use of adverbs was a more recent phenomenon among sport commentators. Things weren't any different 30 years ago.

Spencer was very good at laying snookers. Reminded me a bit of Selby. He was definitely stalling and trying to aggravate Jimmy as much as possible.

Yep, Taom that claims to eliminate miscues lol, in reality it's increased them.
