Shootout 2013

[jrc750]

I didn´t have the speakers on last night when Walden and Gilbert played respotted blue. What had happened if both players had potted the blue, would they have continued with pink ?

That's one of the one's i watched, i believe they carry on potting blues off the spot until one of them misses. This should be childs play for a pro

[cebs]

missed the first few cannot believe Ding lost

thats all my accumulators gone for 1st round

oh well second round draw in a bit and for Un Nooh as a long shot.

I'll be gutted if only Ding loses from my selection had him a 4, a 5 and an 8 way bet.

Can still make a bit if I've guessed the winner correctly. Just makes me more excited when I have a bet on.

One thing i do like and which most tournaments use is the sideways overhead shot of the table. See it now and then in a final on bbc but they use it a lot in this. With a massive percent of people having widescreen tv now i think they all should use this shot and maybe a small picture in picture closeup of players faces.

that was a sweet 57 to the black just then, good odds against him during that frame !!

This recovery from Jimmy Robertson was amazing.

[throtts]

Reds were awkward too.. Very good..

Haha I never thought watching Gould could be that exciting. What a comeback :O

[cebs]

a few good comebacks today, liked Goulds finish and like you said he's not normal that exciting to watch.

What a mess up during the draw with two number 9s, didn't they realise the higher numbers were the black balls and that single figure balls don't have a zero just their figure and most have an underscore on the 6 and 9 just to prevent this,

Think they'd never done a draw before.

Its opened up a bit now i think with Higgins, Ding, Murphy out. Selby, Williams or Allen look good so far and after that maybe Un Nooh, Milkins or Lisowski.

Liked Higgins being asked about his trip back home after getting 1 point, should just stay and have a night out in Blackpool.

Is it done for the day? When does the next session start?

Excellent, thanks!

Harold and the shoot clock is a funny combination.

[throtts]

D Harold must have the shortest back swing in the game, its mega short. He stabs the cue ball, like D Taylor did, incredible really..

[narl]

How pathetic does this crowd sound? Really does sound like a pack of half sloshed football supporters. They just started "singing" god save the queen...wtf?

[cally]

Watched for 5 mins and couldn't put up with the crowd any longer, very irritating..... FFS someone tell um this is snooker not darts mun....
