A thread to discuss all things snooker related such as tournaments, debates and news and anything to with Pthe world of snooker in 2018.

Posted by: MvG501 16th January 2018, 10:54 PM

Really enjoyed that game tonight. You don't always need the really big names in snooker to be entertained that is for sure.

Would love to see Kyren break through and win a big UK based title, We all know he's capable of course with his win in Shanghai and numerous other finals too.

Posted by: MvG501 18th January 2018, 12:39 AM

Fantastic q comeback from John Higgins. Shame the 147 broke down.

Posted by: MvG501 19th January 2018, 11:16 PM

John Higgins in very good form as he beats Ryan Day 6-1 and goes through to the semis.

Posted by: MvG501 20th January 2018, 11:14 PM

So we are guaranteed a new triple crown winner tomorrow either Allen or Wilson will win their biggest title.

Posted by: MvG501 21st January 2018, 06:19 PM

Bit of a scrappy first session with Allen and Wilson there. Currently at 4-4 going into the evening's session. I think Mark Allen will edge it 10-8.

Posted by: MvG501 22nd January 2018, 11:10 PM

Absolutely delighted for Mark Allen. I’ve always been a big fan of his so it’s great to see him finally win a big triple crown event.

Posted by: MvG501 28th January 2018, 05:02 PM

Marco Fu will not be competing in events in the forthcoming months on doctor’s advice following laser eye surgery. Hopefully he’ll be ok in time for the Worlds.

Posted by: Mack. 4th February 2018, 05:11 PM

Wow!, what a session there from Mark Williams to lead Graeme Dott 7-1 in the German Masters.

Posted by: Mack. 4th February 2018, 11:34 PM

Mark Williams wins two ranking events in the same season for the first time since 2002/03! If he keeps this form up he’ll be one to avoid in the world championships!

Posted by: Mack. 5th February 2018, 11:29 PM

The T20 of snooker starts on Thursday for four days on ITV 4. The Snooker Shoot Out is back.

Posted by: Mack. 11th February 2018, 10:55 PM

Well done Michael Georgiou the first Cyprit to win a ranking tournament by winning the Snooker Shootout. He was the best player of the weekend and deserved to win. I really hope he kicks on from this and wins more events. Really quality player, enjoyed watching him play.

Posted by: vidcapper 12th February 2018, 07:38 AM

It's entertaining, but I don't think it should count as a Ranking event, as it's too much of a lottery.

Posted by: Mack. 12th February 2018, 08:39 AM

Try telling that to Michael Georgiou.

I don't think it should be a ranking event either. Not nice to see is members of the crowd calling out just as the player is just about to take his shot to win the match, a example of that was Tian Pengfei who kept cool when this happened in the blue-ball shootout, a member of the crowd called out when he took his shot.

Although it has been a great opportunity for lower ranked players to get vital prize money that they need to try and stay on the tour.

Posted by: vidcapper 13th February 2018, 11:49 AM

I'd love to see Ronnie enter it sometime - his fast-sighting & close cue-ball control would make the time clock almost irrelevant - not to mention his 5m20s maximum...

Posted by: Mack. 19th February 2018, 07:01 PM

Ronnie O’Sullivan (1) vs Robert Milkins (32)
Martin Gould (16) vs Yan Bingtao (17)

Anthony McGill (15) vs Cao Yupeng (18)
Mark Williams (2) vs Stuart Bingham (31)

Posted by: Mack. 19th February 2018, 07:42 PM

Robert Milkins should have won the first frame. He had four very good chances but messed it up every time.

Posted by: Mack. 19th February 2018, 10:28 PM

Bingtao through to the second round of the World Grand Prix with an impressive 4-2 win over Martin Gould. He now meets Ronnie O’Sullivan in what is sure to be a cracker after Ronnie whitewashed Milkins 4-0.

Posted by: vidcapper 21st February 2018, 07:20 AM

Judd Trump seems rather out of form ATM.

Posted by: Mack. 23rd February 2018, 06:08 PM

Looking forward to ding vs Selby tomorrow should be a cracker they never disappoint whoever wins should be a great final.

Posted by: Mack. 25th February 2018, 10:40 PM

A very comfortable win for Ronnie in the World Grand Prix he beat Ding Junhui 10-3 with 4 centuries.

Posted by: Mack. 25th February 2018, 10:43 PM

Only his mind can stop Ronnie O’Sullivan at the moment. It’s going to take something special to prevent him winning the Welsh Open next week.

Posted by: Mack. 27th February 2018, 08:54 AM

Seems Darren Morgan is not happy with Mark Williams

A hammering for Murphy by Gerard Greene with a whitewash in the first round of the Welsh Open.

Posted by: vidcapper 2nd March 2018, 07:47 AM

3 matches, not even any lost frames for Ronnie in the Welsh Open.

OK, he had a first round bye, but in the form he's in, I doubt Robin Hull would have provided much resistance either.

Posted by: Mack. 2nd March 2018, 08:31 PM

Another clash between the greats, O'Sullivan and Higgins in the quarter-finals, currently 3-1 to Higgins at the interval.

Posted by: Mack. 4th March 2018, 05:16 PM

Higgins made two excellent total clearances against Barry Hawkins but trailed 4-2! He won the last two though so it’s all square at 4-4.

Posted by: Mack. 4th March 2018, 10:53 PM

Great win for John. Still producing the goods in his 40s. Well played to Barry. Looks to be getting back to form just in time for the worlds.

Posted by: Mack. 11th March 2018, 08:22 PM

Congratulations to Ryan Day anyway winning his second career ranking title. Defeat for Cao Yupeng in a final means Graeme Dott takes the final spot in the players Championship.

Posted by: Mack. 12th March 2018, 08:00 PM

Players Championship Draw:


O'Sullivan v Dott
Ding v Allen
Brecel v Robetson
Trump v Maguire
Higgins v McGill
Murphy v Wilson
Selby v Day
Williams v Yan

Posted by: Mack. 18th March 2018, 09:36 PM

Ryan Day in superb form at the moment. He wins the Romanian Masters final 10-8 against Stuart Bingham despite being 4-0 behind early on.

Posted by: Mack. 19th March 2018, 11:07 PM

Not a fantastic game but glad to see Ding win. Didn’t realise Mark Allen was in such jeopardy of not being in the top 16 come the Crucible.

Posted by: Mack. 20th March 2018, 10:26 PM

Brilliant win for Ryan Day today against World Champion Mark Selby in the Players Championship.
His 6-3 win moves him into the top 16 of the rankings and moves Mark Allen down to 17th!

Posted by: Mack. 21st March 2018, 10:18 PM

When was the last time Higgins got beat 6-0 against anyone other than Ronnie O’Sullivan. Great result for Anthony McGill.

Posted by: Mack. 26th March 2018, 07:48 AM

Really enjoyed watching this all week on ITV and can’t wait for the Worlds soon on the BBC. So pleased that in this age of Sky and BT etc there are still some snooker tournaments on normal free view TV. Thought Ronnie looked the winner all week apart from maybe the last few frames of the Trump match. Also credit to Murphy on a good week, think he let Ronnie off the hook a little.

Posted by: Mack. 27th March 2018, 09:42 PM

Congratulations to Luca Brecel, who made his first pro maximum in the Championship League yesterday, a quick one in 7 minutes and 25 seconds.

Posted by: Mack. 2nd April 2018, 11:56 PM

Mark Allen's win this morning means he's above Ryan Day - so Ryan is out of the top 16 for the Crucible. If Stuart Bingham also loses his last 64 match, Mark would be above him too. Mark getting to the quarter final would put him above Ali Carter (Ali was beaten earlier.)

Still potentially lots to play for as even the £90k for the runner up could mean a massive boost for several players..

Posted by: Mack. 3rd April 2018, 02:12 PM

Ronnie O'Sullivan has been knocked out in the first round of the China Open by Elliot Slessor despite making a maximum 147 break.

Posted by: vidcapper 3rd April 2018, 02:44 PM

Hey, I was gonna say that.

I'd rather he lose here, but win the World Championship.

Posted by: Mack. 3rd April 2018, 11:49 PM

Now that Ronnie has made the maximum. I'm hoping that it won't be £5,000 for the 147 at the World Championship surely not.

Posted by: vidcapper 4th April 2018, 06:06 AM

Well, you'd get the 'highest-break' prize on top of that 5k.

Posted by: Mack. 4th April 2018, 07:53 AM

Great win for Slessor again over O'Sullivan. To beat Ronnie twice in the same season is pretty special achievement.

Posted by: Mack. 4th April 2018, 04:14 PM

Bingham makes a 147 against Walden, nicking 21k off Ronnie!!

Posted by: Mack. 5th April 2018, 06:01 PM

So unless Jack Lisowski or Tom Ford wins this event its the 16 as it stands and Mark Allen will be 16.

Posted by: Mack. 8th April 2018, 09:11 AM

Today looks like being yet another runaway final with Selby leading 8-2 at the interval. Don’t know what Barry’s pot success rate was but he seemed to miss a lot of easy ones so I’d guess a lowly mid 80’s.

Posted by: vidcapper 9th April 2018, 09:09 AM

Would anyone watch the World Seniors Snooker Championship if it were televised?

Posted by: Mack. 9th April 2018, 11:35 AM

Yes I would watch the World Seniors Snooker Championship if it was televised. This year it went to Aaron Canavan from Jersey who beat Patrick Wallace on a respotted black.

Some pretty generous looking odds for anyone whose name is not O'Sullivan.

Posted by: Mack. 12th April 2018, 08:33 PM

For a second there I thought Liang was going to do two maxes. Massively pleased for him to come through that one though, we need his character at the Crucible. Hopefully someone will tell him the correct way into the stage

I see that Ronnie has joined the SightRight team that helped Mark Williams so much - if he gets any *better*, everyone else might as well quit right now!

Posted by: Mack. 13th August 2018, 10:43 AM

Absolutely gutting for Dave. I have to feel sorry for him. That might have been his best chance of winning a ranking title.

Although it showed why Mark Williams is the best in the world at the moment to win the World Open after being 9-5 down.

Posted by: vidcapper 13th August 2018, 02:33 PM

I keep missing these mid-summer tournaments, as they get relatively little publicity.

Posted by: Mack. 26th August 2018, 08:59 AM

Quite likely we’ll get a debut ranking tournament winner tomorrow, only Ebdon and Wilson left of the 16 have won before.

Posted by: Mack. 26th August 2018, 10:35 AM

Jack Lisowski beats Jimmy Robertson in under an hour to reach the Quarter Finals of the Paul Hunter Classic. Could he be on his way to that first ranking title.

Barry Hawkins comes from 9-7 behind to beat Ding Junhui in a decider! He’ll play Ronnie in tomorrow’s final of the Shanghai Masters.

Posted by: Mack. 19th September 2018, 02:23 PM

It was a great return for Ronnie to win the Shanghai Masters. Don't know how he does it, he can play as and when he wants and doesn't seem to need to slowly build match sharpness like everyone else.

Posted by: Mack. 26th September 2018, 03:50 PM

Enjoying the China Championship this week. Yuan Sijun just beat Ding 5-4 in a thriller. Dotty hammered Robbo and a great win for Mark King over Mark Allen 5-1.

Wonder if this'll earn him enough points to make top 16?

Posted by: Mack. 2nd November 2018, 12:36 PM

In the provisional rankings, currently he is 17th just outside the Top16. Another strong run in the Northern Ireland Open & UK Championship and he could be in the Masters for the first time.
