Ronnie O Sullivan - Ali Carter - final

[Mihkelj]

Something that has caught my eye over this final, and indeed during the whole tournament...Ronnie looks like he knows something we all don't...he just looks totally confident of winning. Weird...but I can just sense it with him, he is so dead calm...it's eerie.

Hope I'm proven wrong, but don't have much faith to be honest.

I've felt the same way. I have a phone call coming later this evening, hope I don't miss the finale because of it. Might spare me the tears though.

He definitely looks relaxed now & well up for winning.

Yes good job Ali! Slowly does it...keep chipping away...

Totally deserved frame for Carter. Excellent shot on the pink.

[Ronnie's tip]

1-1 for this session then.

I don't buy this. The reason none of those three dominated is simple: the other two were playing the same tournaments at the same time.

True. Good point.

Agreed.

I can read Dennis' thoughts...Hazel looks delicious tonight! (and I agree btw)

[cyclone]

Loving Hazel Irvine's question, tell us about the situation Carter is in...

He has to beat O'sullivan 8-1, that's the situation he's in.

Spot on as usual.

A sarcastic reply if ever I saw one

Don't know if this has been discussed here yet, but how far will the two climb in the rankings if Ronnie wins and Ali's runner up?

Ali wont make the top 16 Ronnie is provisionally 11th i believe

I was trying to work this out yesterday. I *think* Ronnie will be 10th and Carter 14th. But I might have gone wrong.

If I remember correctly, Ali only advances into the Top 16 if he wins tonight. O'Sullivan I don't know.

Last years entrance was much better, but anyway...

Come on Ronnie! On current form, I fancy Carter to get in first and win the 1st frame or 2.

Spot on as usual.

He does. Carrot juice?

If you asked Peter, he'd definitely say so! (:

16-10

surely only one direction now
