I really think he can, but he has to get over the TV pressure, he just could not handle it against Higgins in Shanghai.. But I'm not going to say it was the worst first TV performance ever.. He just needs a little bit of that match winning touch

[superaussie]

i hope selty learnt from his first tv match against higgins in shanghai and plays well today

[Odrl]

Yeah, it wouldn't be that surprising if he won. But Hendry has performances ranging from extremely mediocre to very good these days, so there's no way of telling how well he'll have to play.

[spike]

For me Hendry tends to be most vulnerable in the early rounds, so this is as good as chance as any for Selt to beat Hendry. Though in saying that you can never be sure what (kind of Hendry) will be turning up on the day..

didn't he recently thrash judd in the premier league?

[superaussie]

premier league is hardly a good barometer for form trump is doing well in it and cant win a ranking match

[Monique]

No he lost to Trump (4-2) but won 5-1 vs Robertson. Robertson had a really bad day though. TBH it was rather a missfest for most of the match. Hendry played well in spells, Robbo not at all...

[johnno147]

oh yeah thanks for the info, premier league is only event i don't watch as i do not have sky.

got a dentist appointment today, i think im asking a lot for the snooker to be on in there.

perhaps a snooker scene magazine in the rack would be a result!

By the way, watching the final frame of Carter vs Milkins on Eurosport, I just realized that Milkins has a very quick cue action

and sometimes because of that he seems to jab at the ball..

Strongly agreed.. Pity he can't just control himself at times..

[johnno147]
