  • Great steal there. C'mon Stephen!!

    • agree Hege and PTS

      he will know he was lucky, a couple of times, but at least hes actually capitalising on the good run hes getting. recently hes been carrying on attacking when hes had good run and messing up

      4-1 to Hendry

      Hendry at the table leading 8-0 in frame 6

        Yes, he could have cleared to 13 with the black, and then the rest had only been for fun, and in that position Ronnie probably would be the best player to do it.

            Great one
            This is what I hate about O'Sullivan matches, I turned off the sound, make the match more enjoyable.

            • What was Stephen thinking of when he snookered himself

                • I think Ronnie is focusing too much on getting another 147. He's going to lose because of that. In frame 5 he went for a silly red when he should've played safe.

                  But Hendry is in big trouble now in frame 6. Nothing he can't handle though. Pressure is only good for Stephen.

                    And the crowd seems amused by that fact.

                    • What was Stephen's plan when he potted that green? He snookered himself and is having trouble getting out of it. Five attempts so far.

                      Why didn't he just run through?

                      • I find it awkward as well, people applauding when a player has missed numerous of times and then hits it after failed attempts. Whoever it is.

                            He didn't even play for the black when he missed that red.

                            • OMG Stephen!
                              Won't be surprised if this turns into 4-2.

                                Reminds me of those morons who applaud the captain (I presume) when the plane lands.
