The talk in the snooker world is all about this:
When he decided to play the pink when on for a 147. The jackpot for a maximum was £10,000.
What Ronnie had to say about it.
At least one person had put money on an O'Sullivan 147 in this tournament. He must feel really cheated by this.
O'Sullivan has always had a reputation for being arrogant. This just confirms it. While 147s are more common than they used to be, they are still rare. Therefore, anyone in the audience has good reason to feel that they have been denied the opportunity to witness one by a demonstration of that arrogance.
Look at what happened in the 2010 World Open where he was prompted by Jan Verhaas to pot the black for a 147 in a match against Mark King.
He has said in the interview that it was all a bit of fun not really for the crowd.
Betting firm Paddy Power have offered him £61,000 to make one in the tournament.
Again no signs of his form dipping as he beat Jimmy Robertson 4-0 in the third round of the Welsh Open.
At least Ding Junhui didn't go for the pink as he got the 147 on Friday and then Ronnie accuses him of letting the players down. Seriously, what?
