red to yellow poor again

Poor standard compared to the afternoon session. 2-2 is a fair result.

better in off than missing the pot the opponent does have to play from the baulk end

Didn't miss the pot though did he? I wonder if O'Sullivan will give Carter the sarcastic round of applause for all the pieces of luck he's getting like Carter did to Trump (on top of bullying him on Twitter).

[Ronnie's tip]

To be honest I'm expecting Ronnie to have a session of pure luck soon, because I don't think he's had the run of the ball in any of his matches. Usually it evens itself out.

no dennis he wasnt unlucky he shouldnt of been straight

exactly, he KNOWS the in off's on, played it and went in off, all pros have done that lots of times in their careers, going through his mind would have been "I could go in off here", 2 all is a fair result I think, Ali needed to be 6-6 though, when he could have cleared up when he was 60 behind!

That white going into the middle pocket off Ronnie's pot, has kept this match allive IMO.

She was talking about Carter being straight on the black and apparently being 'unlucky' (according to Taylor) when the cannon onto the two reds didn't work out. Yes, O'Sullivan knew the in-off was a possibility, but it was a very very low possibility.

It was still very unsportsmanlike. I'm surprised Carter got away with it without much criticism from the public and without any sort of punishment from World Snooker, when Williams and Allen have been absolutely torn apart.

I think Carter has the mileage to take this match all the way but I can see Ronnie having a fantastic session. He'll go on a little run.

Carter is on the ropes. He has got to produce some sort of form or he's in real trouble.

Williams and Allen were more upfront though, but I do agree that because it was on the Internet, the things people say dont get punished as much for some reason!

unforgivable

he is for the taking this evening

So what do you all reckon the end of session score will be? 8-8? 11-5? (I'm saying 9-7.)
