[Masterdoctorgenius]

[sklskl]

What a shot by Ronnie. Don't think I've ever seen anything like that but when it's Ronnie you're not surprised.

[Masterdoctorgenius]

what a commentator curse

come on ronnie

[sklskl]

Red's opened up nicely. Another great chance for Neil to take the second frame.

[breakman16]

Oh ohhh, Robertson in the balls again to bang a break in. . .

[Masterdoctorgenius]

ronnie missed this by mile

[Where's Willie?]

Flawless opening frame from Neil. Great safety, three superb long pots and won the frame in one visit.

think neil discoverd how to annoy ronnie

he plays the same type of snooker like selby does

[Odrl]

Cracking start from Robertson, every ball going straight in the heart of the pocket.

And what about that safety reply to the baulk cushion behind the green? It's funny, O'Sullivan's demolition of Hendry in 2008 was an excellent display of one-visit snooker, but O'Sullivan also played some terrific safety in that match. Hendry had to play a containing safety shot to the black cushion on his first or second safety shot in pretty much every frame, and it more often than not ended with O'Sullivan in the balls. He could have used a shot or two like Robertson's just played in that match.

I think that's why John Higgins has such a good record against O'Sullivan, and Selby to some extent as well. They look for that shot that not only gets them out of trouble, but also turns the tables. If Robertson can play safety like that in this match, he will be incredibly tough to beat.

ronnie playing careless saftey shots

without any real pressure

neil is a mixture of williams potting and ebdons slow play

any1 agree

He is Ebdon. Ebdon also has tremendous potting ability. One of his main strengths.

[sklskl]

Top right hand spin and the white ball goes in off. Should have seen that Ronnie.
