Jimmy was unlucky when he tried to split the reds...he had a very tough shot at middle pocket....he looks better though, more solid...

Pity we didn't go to decider.
A good game without 90% percent potting.

I wanted to see a decider, too I enjoyed Jimmy's 88 in the third :snooker:

Like I said on another thread, Ronnie is starting to miss the odd shot when amongst the balls (he did so twice in the 3rd frame) and it's only those opponents that can capitalize who would defeat him.

Very rarely you see Ronnie with a pot success below 90% so Jimmy had a good chance today!

I would say he played a lot better than many players did in this tournament.
Hopefully this result will help his ranking and confidence in a positive way.

Well, i thought that was quite entertaining. That could have easily gone 2-2 and with a bit of luck, it would have.

Superb interview with Ronnie on the BBC and it was a nice bit of sportsmanship on the miss.

Really good game.

Yeah, nice interview but what I found nicer was inviting the female fan inside

Really enjoyed that interview. A little insight into the coplex mind of Ronnie!!!

I guess he just has different motivation techniques to............

Thought Jimmy did well to be fair as he didn't have the run of the ball or get left with alot when Ronnie missed.

I'm sure had Jimmy been playing a lesser player he might have done better looking at the standard this week, although that said maybe he needed to play a great player to bring out the best in himself.

Taking into account the passage of time that none of us will beat he's just lacking that bit of match sharpness & confidence you only get from playing in the later stages of tournaments, but potted some good balls under pressure & a couple of nice breaks which was nice to see.

Would have loved to have seen it go 2-2 & have a decider but it wasn't to be.........

I'm really happy that I was back in time from the school to watch this enjoyable game
Well, what about Hendry vs O'Sullivan then

Andrew Higginson 1-0 up

Come On Andrew!!! :snooker:

[dannyd0g]

Yeah to his hotel room probably

It was a good match and good interview. Ronnie showing his good side in that one.

Great to see Jimmy producing some good fluent snooker on the big occasion aswell.

Love that comment from Dennis during the 1st frame of Fu/Higginson, when Willie said "now that ive had my eye surgery ime thinking of making a comeback, i could play against you in the Legends tour" Dennis quick as a flash said "your not good enough for that Willie"

[cue1]

Arghhhhh Two silly misses in the third could cost Andrew the frame!!!

Come On Andrew!!! :snooker:


EDIT: It has cost him the frame, 2-1 now... Keep it tight, Andrew!!! :snooker:
