That red Shot of the tournament! Trump-Gould must be a cracker
Walden sucks, what the hell he was doing in the top16. Great win for Rory and Hendry too

Walden is a pretty good player if only he could get rid of his negative attiude towards the game...

It was, he just hit it as hard as he could, didnt think balls could go in from that angle at that speed!!! Just totally ridiculous!!! lol Should be a good one Trump Gould, hope Trump wins and does well, great players both of em! Had Walden for high break but that's gone realisticly, better for me that Gould won, shame, Ricky is normally quite fluent!

I've never seen Ricky Walden play fluently - and I've watched him live a couple of times as well as on the box - he always seems quite a measured player, but obviously not as slow as some (Rory!) He had one great tournament, but hasn't been able to reproduce that form consistently. I had Rory to win this match.

I don't think it could be considered shot of the tournament as the pressure was off and it meant nothing.

But it was still a 1-1000 pot.

He's more measured than some, but he can score, think he just likes to double check his shots so less chance of them going wrong, maybe his brain in matchplay doesn't work as quick as others, it's a shame he cant reproduce his best, after all it doesnt matter how fluent a player is, it's about being effective!

Even i pot them shots now and again lol.....so maybe 1 in 20

[Masterdoctorgenius]

do this kind of shot i front of packed audience and these unmerciful pockets

then i will take my hat off

Well MAYBE you will pot it 1 out of 20 but not with that pace!

Yeah, the pace and the tight pockets make it a bit more special.

It'll be in the list, but there will be shots that are almost equal but with pressure on so will probably top it, it definitely deserves to be shown again though!!

[jrc750]

Well assuming Rory wins, i don't think he will be going much further in this comp.!

[FOXMULDER]

Well done, Rory!

Might have to move up a few gears in the next round, tho!

What a win for McLeod but yeah can't see him past Higgins/Lee over 25 frames.

[breakman16]

Dott high break (currently 102 Dott) and Higgins win for my accumilator, quite confident, also gone for higgins to stay world number one, so a semi at least is needed, 'MON JOHN!!!!! lol
