World Championship 2012 1st Round Discussion

What a way to lose a match, and just when Allen was starting to look dangerous.

[Zoe]

Just think if Dennis Taylor had done that against Steve Davis in the 1985 final.

Has a lower ranked player ever made the last 16 before?

some television would get broken i suppose or had it actually happnened after he potted the black

[FOXMULDER]

Why hit the black so hard?

Cao deserved to win anyway.

[Masterdoctorgenius]

What a beauty from murphy

[Masterdoctorgenius]

this gonna be the best WC i think

three matches finsihed and alle had drama

and more than 10 centures made

[coomsey76]

Well played Cao.... But how unlucky for Allen to go in off that black and lose the frame and match!!

How good would a Ding v Cao match up in the next round be??

[Masterdoctorgenius]

wow

calling chinese players cheaters

some peoiple like to finish with an emphatic pot

[bonoman1970]

throw the toys out the pram!!!!
someone get mark allen a dummy to suck on !!!

[jrc750]

Well, i never saw the incident in question, maybe someone will see it on youtube and post a link, but if Mark could see it from his chair and indeed if Cao looked at the ref too, as if to say "foul" then seems strange how Paul didn't see it ???

[ADR147]

i can't believe i am going to say this but i thought like mark allen that it was a push shot at the time - not had a look back at it.

[Giggity1984]

He names Liang Wenbo but Liang called a push shot against himself instantly when 9 all against Higgins last night. Allen is a cock.

Yes its a bad time to try and call out Liang considering that John Higgins may well me out of the tournament now if Liang was a blatent cheat in unseen push shot situations...
