God Hearn comes off as such a smug little git in this video piece, a face id not get tired of slapping..

Yeah he does doesn't he. I don't have all the plusses and minusses about the new flat 128 system yet, but I'm very curious if this change will indeed be implemented and if so, how it will affect me, the viewer...am I going to be able to see my favorite players in tournaments or some player ranked nr 96...

Anyway...there's a match in progress Common Neil!!!

[daffie]

Honestly...that fluke by Selby...oh boy!

[cueman]

wait, it couldn't be could it, ANOTHER fluke!

I can just about picture you sitting on the sofa at home screaming at the tele...with each fluke or good fortune screaming a bit harder. Must be agony

Btw you know I'm just having a bit of fun don't you.

Neil at the table with a good lead...so that's good news!

8-5 and the comeback continues!!! 2 in a row is very very helpful for Neil...needs to build momemtum.

If I was playing against him I'd be doing that too, a bit like that infamous Ebdon moment when he fell to the floor in disbelief when his opponent, though I forget who it was, came out of a shot extremely fortunately. However I've come to somehow expect it in a Selby match now, its become sort of a part of his matches. I mentioned it during the UK too, I genuinely in all my 30 years of watching the game never known a luckier player.

[Odrl]

That's better from Robertson. Selby hasn't really been under pressure so far, because his mistakes have largely gone unpunished. But another frame or two like that, and Robertson is in with a good chance again. :smile:

Yeah I hear ya. Selby indeed is often very lucky. I do remember the Ebdon moment. Can you imagine Selby playing Carter...I think Ali would be ready to blow in about the 3rd frame Btw pretty sure they've played each other, but can't really remember the match.

Definitely! This frame is crucial though...a must win for Neil.

[brusque]

Why is everyone silent now when Selby got a kick? Not that I mind .. i want a decider ... come on robbo

[brusque]

Blame Selby again just because Robbo did not have guts enough to clear up!!!!

[jonplayer]

Come on neil!! as ordl rightly said the pressure is on Selby

[daffie]

Definitely gone a bit quiet in here lately...where is everybody? Neil has found his fighting boots now. Go on Neil...get this frame on the board!

[daffie]

What a pot on the brown...and position on the blue as well!

[daffie]

Luck's turning!

Ok Neil!!!
