Ronnie O Sullivan - Ali Carter - final

[Ronnie's tip]

When Ronnie potted the first red I thought "right, I'm going to the loo and when I come back he'll have missed on around 30 points".

I went, came back and Carter was back at the table, 30 points behind

Good chance for Ronnie now though.

Yup he's still going with this break. If he does win this frame, well...

17-11 come on

[Ronnie's tip]

LOL at that stare. Not really anything to moan over though - happens in all sports.

Ronnie knows stuff that everyone else don't .... that's why he'e the best !

God, there are a lot of cry babies amongst Ronnie O'Sullivan fans. Thankfully, I'm not one of them.

What...you really think Ronnie needs a cheer...he might otherwise not win the title?

More like they have blinders on at all times regarding anything Ronnie related.

Glad I'm not one of those either...

I think the biggest question now is what are the BBC going to do to fill the "until 11pm" time slot the snooker has.

[Ronnie's tip]

Have to say Ronnie's had a fair bit of luck in this session so far.

I used to be like that tbh (been a Ronnie fan since 1995 when I was 13). There's been a fair few occasions when he's lost the plot and the match after winning heavily. Not this time though, not a chance. I like Ali a lot too, so rooting for him now. Hope it gets closer.

The last frame of the 85 final...on constant repeat
