Ssb - evans wins battle of the sexes

[Monique]

Thats why so many big names pulled out? With all respect to Reanne she would be lucky to win a frame off any of the pros if it were the proper amount of reds. With this it is far easier to win frames because it only takes one small break to win.

Reanne's HB in competition is 140 and she has beaten Ding Junhui in "regular" 15-reds previously.

Well, if this 6red competition was so easy, you'd think that thousands of snooker forum posters would have applied for it, because "anyone" can make a frame winning break. But the reality is somewhat different. I don't care if they played a single black ball game. Beating John Higgins is always hard no matter what. Just dealing with presence of such champion watching you play...can you imagine that? Most would fall apart. I'm sure that 99% of amateur players couldn't pot two balls in a row against John...

Well said Ace Man.

Alex0Paul - have you even seen Reanne play? I can tell you from first hand experience that she is a player not to be taken lightly by ANYONE. She is capable of beating anybody on her day, even John Higgins in some Mickey Mouse "World Championship" event (sarcasm there for those who cannot tell). You still have to pot the balls.

im not a fan of this 6 red thing but its better than nothing...lets hope with a 15 ranking tournament season the format gets binned ASAP.

Just shows what a rubbish format it is.

Come on Alex, if winning was so easy for her it surely must have been all the more so for the male stars. Same format, same chance....
