2019 World Snooker Championship

Robertson had better find some form quickly or he's on the way out.

Btw very nice complementary words from Ali afterwards...kudos to him for that.

Really? I missed that, I'll have to root it out later. I don't think he's such a bad lad, been through an awful lot recently, good reasons to be angry at life, if that's your bag.

With just over 1 hour of playing time left for Higgins and Robertson, this could leave a rather nicely prolonged evening session in prospect later on.

Nowhere near as well as Garry IMO.

Exactly! Gary is good/great in all departments. Becel I find lacking in a few.

I agree, but it would have been nice to find out. Having said that, I'm happy for Wilson. A semi-final lineup of Robertson vs Gilbert and Trump vs Wilson would be great. It looks like only Higgins can stop it from happening, though I wouldn't quite count out Kyren.

[PatBlock]

I wonder how Luca would have done if he had gotten through that match.

Well done Gary! Such a cool customer...

[neuronic]

C'mon Gary...let's see you in the Final vs Kyren, also known this year as The War of the Wilsons.

I'd pass on that...

[Stony152]

Wilson was down to Brecel by 30+ points in the deciding frame in the first round. One good shot by Brecel or one mistake by Wilson and he would have been eliminated. It's amazing how small margins and a bit of luck sometimes determine your fate. I wonder how Luca would have done if he had gotten through that match.

Been a good session so far hasn't it. Carter really is his own worst enemy, that 21st frame was far from over but he threw it away with poor safety play because he was too busy beating himself up. I think he needs a lill'ting to calm himself down.

-

Indeed...excellent session of snooker again.

Carter...can't stand watching him. Such a negative person at the table. Too bad really cause he ain't too bad a player.

OH I didn't realise that Odrl thanks for clarifying. I just assumed both games would of had 2 sessions each.

Semi and final are 4 sessions. Only 1 table at that stage.

[John Flaf]

Its the way the matches are scheduled. 3 sessions 8/8/9. Higgo Robbo will finish their match 2nite. Carter Wilson finish this morning.
I heard Higgins say in an interview that the schedule needed to be tweaked a bit. He had to play a session immediately following a late night.

Tis strange though Nifty I never realised.

[John Flaf]

:smile: Wilson and Carter have played two sessions already, Higgins and Robertson have played only one. It's 8 frames per session.
