Shanghai Masters 2009 - 1st round discussions!

[poolqjunkie]

I heard that one fo the Chinese player almost made a 147, but lost position due to a kick, is that true?

[ja.]

Mark King will avenge his defeat to Walden at the Masters last season** by beating the defending champion in Shanghai 5-4. King for the title

**in a match which King made a century that myself and matoski rank alongside Ronnie's fluent best

dont forget mr the boss, walden also made king play a round of qualifier, imagine how angry he is

Morning evryone

I see Stephen Hendry's 1-0 down (but hey, it can always get better!)

And I'd also like to join the Walden fan club (sorry Boss), primarily cos he's in my fantasy team

Campbell leads Stephen Hendry 1-0.

[Maija]

Ryan Day just went 2-0 up on Li Yan.

Bugger, I had really hoped that any of the two matches that aren't streamed would be streamed. Does bring me right back into Snooker Season Mode, though!

I know! It's great isn't it

Meanwhile Ricky's just won the first frame and Bond's just leveled with Marco.

Ricky walden wins a rather scrappy frame to go 1-0 in front. King in play in the 2nd frame and is currently on a break of 50.

[hegeland]

Bond is playing pretty good this morning. Confident breakbuilding and a tricky laid snooker was a winning combination in the third frame.

[Forman]

Hendo 2-0 down and 45 behind in the 3rd, could we really have another whitewash?

I think Hendry will win a frame at least, but if he loses the 3rd frame it's hard to see him winning the match but of course it's not impossible..

Is there a link to multi-livescorer for today's matches?

Defending champion Ricky Walden goes 2-1 in front of Mark King but looks far from impressive so far today..

[darrus]

Thank you for the livescore link, but I would have preferred not to see it right now...
Hendry 0-3 down and 0-43 down in the fourth frame.
