  • Ssb - williams plays on despite accident

    Mark Williams will play in the Pokerstars.com Masters at Wembley tonight despite sustaining whiplash when his car was rammed from behind in London last night.

    Stephen Hendry was also slightly injured in the incident.

    Williams said today that "you'd have to cut my head off to stop me playing."

    Carter's odds to win the match have shortened since news of the injury spread but punters should beware.

    Pressure has now transferred to Carter, who will do well to shut out thoughts that the twice former Masters champion is operating below par.

    I recall the shock news at the 1994 World Championship that Hendry had slipped in the bathroom and broken his elbow.

    I also recall who ended up winning that tournament.

        lol Noel! If you saw the match it looked like Carter was more uncomfortable than Williams. It will be interesting to see how he does the rest of the week.

          If Williams recover on time, the match against Murphy would be far more interesting than against Carter

            He seemed to be playing better when injured. As he said he couldn't rush shots because of the pain. So maybe it would be better for him (and his game) not to recover too fast

              Does any one remember quite a few years ago during one of the Tournaments Stephen Hendry had been to visit a school and was being driven back when a lorry crossed the central reservation and hit the car he was in - he wasn't injured miraculously!
