World Champ. 2009 -1st round discussion!

Oh Spike ha ha, you should have put your bet online and got a refund when MJW loses to Hendry 10-7!!!!!!!!

No way....Hendry had his chance when 4-1 and blew it! You would have to make Williams the slight favourite now.

[Looki]

Dott is also making a comeback, i hope he finishes as a winner from the first session.

Was it just me or did anyone else find Thorne's '...IS HE ON DRUGS?!' remark about Williams' choice of shot hilarious

[Anastasia]

oh .......

[Alex0paul]

Graeme Dott trails 5-4. He trailed 5-4 in both 2007 and 2008 before losing 10-7.

Not the best omen.

Well, he didn't.. But he'll take the match. I'm sure of it.

Hawkins still hasn't won a match at the Crucible though, and has a tendency to twitch on crucial shots.

Dott just needs good start in the next session...

I wouldn't be so sure....that match has 9-9 all written over it!

Both Hendry and Williams were a bit off in my opinion. It could be anyone's game.

Barry seems to be in great form, a nice comeback even though he missed frame ball in the last frame.

Now, cant wait to watch ball run and ROS.

I couldn't stop laughing when he said that. Best. commentator. line. ever.

At first glance, the arena setting looks rather ugly.

Looks like Betfred's "four year, multi-million pound deal" didn't include the cost for a new carpet!!

Whatever sickly colour that is, it barely complimented 888's green set and looks completely wrong against Betfred's dark blue.

Not really a good advert for snooker to the once a year armchair viewers.

The staging designer should be thinking about a change of career........
