sorry i meant when (inevitably) it doesnt end within the 10 o'clock slot. Do they then return at the end of the night??

Oh I see. Im sure they'll play it out to the end and if it makes others run late then so be it. Not entirely sure though.

[decwes]

they wouldnt do that - it would mean the 2.30 match wouldnt get on till 6!

[Crusader]

Normally it would be put back on the first available table at the end of the evening session on Monday.

[decwes]

surely it would be sunday night rather than monday??

Best match of the day this one in terms of entertainment - there seems to be a bit of niggle between the two players giving it an entertaining edge

Last year Carter - Hawkins was brought off at 9-9. After Hawkins had come from 9-6 down to level with only the last frame to play it was a bit controversial - How things could have been so different - Carter could have been beat in the first round and he wouldn't have come into this season with so much confidence.
I think they came back at the end of the evening session, so I'd imagine that would happen to King - McLeod - It surely will be a bit faster, but it does look likely that it will not finish in the morning.

Yes your right there that's what would happen.

the king v McLeod match will be concluded at the end of play tomorrow evening on whichever table will become available first.....

rules at the crucible state if a frame doesn't start by 45 minutes before the start of the next session they will be brought off.....

however if they start a frame with 50 minutes to go and its a long frame then the next session will be delayed.

Could well be a late night then.

Is there a time limit on frames? Hypothetically say if two players decided not to pot balls for whatever reason and just knocked them around, would they forfeit the frame after so long?

I think there is a rule about a stalemate where the referee will intervene when such a situation does occur.

[Crusader]

Yeah, sorry, I should have said Sunday not Monday.
