How stupid are these players ?

Joe Perry has been given a three-month ban - suspended until May 2018 - for breaching rules on betting on matches.

Perry, 42, admitted placing 193 bets between September 2009 and June 2013 worth £2,806.49, making a profit of £832.09.

The WPBSA said that when giving evidence, Perry said he had placed the bets "purely out of boredom or distraction".

With an snooker trick shot yes, but not possible on a regular game of snooker.

Seems on Twitter that Ronnie O'Sullivan has confirmed that he will come and retain his Masters title in January, no news on any other tournaments that he's going to be playing in.

Like him or loathe him.

Ronnie was unplayable in that final. I doubt there's ever been a pot success rate of 98% before and will probably never be seen again.

Stupidity from Bingham during when he has had the best five years of his career. Becoming world champion, a top player.

Why the need to bet on his own games?

Snooker can be such a confusing sport - a player can perform brilliantly one day, then get pasted the next! wacko.gif

e.g. Yan Bingtau beats Ronnie O'Sullivan 6-1 & John Higgins 6-2, then loses 9-2 to Mark Allen. huh.gif
