I would love to have seen that. Do you reckon they'll repeat it later?

Most of it, without question, although you may have to stay up late.

Slept In - Sadly I'm at work, but I've been gorging on it for a week now.

The BBC are my favourite people when the snooker is on. Coverage is awesome.

That's a shame you missed it mate - I'm at work too, but I'm loving the live streams to my pc!

The coverage IS great and although a lot of the commentators get on some people's nerves, I like them all :bighug:

Coverage is awesome.

Especially if you have digital and can watch almost 24/7 and choose your table in the early stages.

I had a cheeky each way bet on Mark Selby to win a couple of weeks ago before it all kicked off. Thought it would be a dead cert after he got to the final last year and had played so well this season. The curse of iamrobd strikes again, sorry Mark.

Do you ask because of my quick fire wit and fantastic trick shots?

he may be dead but i bet eddie charlton is still cueing up a long pot he first started sizing up in 1983.

i remember charlton vs terry griffiths finishing one match at about 5am because they were both so fucking slow and played so much safety.

Wild scenes, great viewing! It was a good match anyway up to that point, jumping around my living room once he put the black in. Superb!

BBC are streaming it now -

I caught this earlier tonight on Eurosport - bloody amazing. Even by Ronnie's standards. Poor Mark Williams was just sitting there sulking :-D

The Liang v Swail match last night was a corker. Anyone see it?

Swail was 12-8 down and it fought back to to 12-12. Twice during the game, Liang potted the blue with only the pink and black left and punched the air as if he had just won the game, the second time during the deciding frame. Then he missed the pink both times. The first time, Swail get a snooker, pots both balls and wins the frame. I was just waiting for it to happen again, but he missed a brown and Liang cleared up. Great drama, gripping stuff and well done Liang.

Love the Snooker, try to watch every match of the World championship, except for yesterday when I was helping my sister move house:mad: gutted I missed it. Watched the highlights last night though, amazing. What about the Swail V Lenbu match though? talk about tension. Ain't got no finger nails left after that.

Superb match! That last frame was a rollercoaster.

Liang looks handy, looking forward to him and O'Sullivan... two entertaining styles of play.

Liang was well out of order with that 'miss' that was called though, when he was in a snooker. When it was replaced, he could actually see the object ball and pretended it was in the same place. That ruined what would otherwise have been a classic. Please don't say that the 'gentleman's rules' that exist in snooker are on the way out like everything else?
