Well, at least I got the Selby and Bingham matches right. 2 points at least for me out of 4 matches.

Who wants to compete with me for last place in this tournament in the prediction contest?

[Miss Walker]

Way to go Zelbz! From 1-3 to 5-3! Woooooheeeeeee And we couldn't watch it Mind, I would have been just as happy if Higgo had won. But I'm all for 'MON MARK now

[April madness]

lol elvaago, I think you have no chance, at least for this round. I am not sure I have got any point from this morning's session

[Lindea]

I got 3 winners right(had Davis as winner) but none of the scorelines. Nice enough start for this round

Stevens will squish "Mags" like a bug.

Oooh, if only! If only it were the case! [insert dreamy look]
Interesting changes in the provisional rankings so far.
Higgins 25.000 points
Murphy 22.050 points
ROS 21.450 points Maguire 21.450 points
(If Mags beats Stevens then he gets 22.050 points and shares the 2nd place with Murphy)
Dott 20.575 points
(If he beats Ding then he gets 21.175 points; if he doesn't then Selby is going to be ahead of him in the provisional, since he's already acquired 20.775 points.)
What is the rule if two or more players have the same amount of points in the provisional?
Oh and...WHEEEEE, SELBS!

Please think of making new topics for the televised matches from now on, it's getting a bit hard to follow.

Ding changed a tip after last game, he is not feeling so good now when he is practising. I hope it wont bother him too much.

Hey, I read this topic, Bläckie. And, not to forget: Pizda ma-tii!

[issha]

hello...
i think i understand the last sentence...or i just think i do...

[Black_cat]

Hey, I read this topic, Bläckie. And, not to forget: Pizda ma-tii!

To all of you watching abroad, the snookery equivalent of what Maija just told me would be "Ronnie is a f****** sorry a**e of a f*****g sh***y f***!"
Addressed to me. A die-hard Ronnette. *gasps in horror*
Tut-tut, Maija. That was worth a good laugh, honest.
*hugs

Issha, please don't provide us with a translation, since our respective languages have a common Slav background.

[GOMH71]

Anyone know any Live Streams I can watch the Hendry - Lee match on ?

[April madness]

Thanks BC for explanation, for a moment I thought it could be something rude (as the phrase Maija wrote includes a word that is considered to be very rude in Latvian and Russian languages)

[issha]

i didnt mean anything wrong....i just thought that i understand the sentance...
no hard feelings.....


p.s. good luck to stephen hendry..

[doorag]

Go Ding, go Matthew, go Stephen and GOOOO Dominic! C'mon and make my day!!

[Maija]

Tut-tut, Maija.

It appears that the translation, supplied by you I might add, I have on my little note says something without quite so many stars in it (Maybe you should teach me some polite Romanian as well? Well, I could *toarce*, I suppose.)

So, yea - roll on the afternoon sesh!
