Another title, from 0-4 and 3-6 down against Trump, O'Sullivan wins 10-7.

 

14 wins in a row, 3 titles in a row I think, fucking ridiculous.

[Bjornebye]

Part of me thinks that was the most corrupt final I've ever seen.

I've only been watching the last couple of frames, forgot it was on. Just seen some of the misses like, what the fuck was Trump doing with that black?

 

O'Sullivan wasn't his usual self like, but the rest of the games I've seen this week he's been incredible.

Weirdest final I've seen. Both of the two best players of all time missing sitters. Like watching Darwin Nunez. 

[Creator Supreme]

I've got a feeling if he wins his 8th World title he'll quit.

 

I just hope he remembers to call Ali Carter a cunt when he does quit.

Mad game. He could easily have been 8-0 down. Managed to scramble a few frames to go into the evening session.

 

Some bad misses from both of them. 

 

But snooker finals are long - you can take off early but run out of gas. Looks like that happened to Judd. 

 

The late missed black and brown from Judd - reckon they'll haunt him for a few nights.

Ronnie is just the best. Nobody has ever played the game better than he has, and it could be a long time before we see anyone that could surpass him. The shame about Ronnie is that if not for his troubles away from the table, he would probably be on 10 world championship titles by now.

I've always disliked Carter for being a bore. But what's the basis for hatred towards him? 

He's always smirking like a cunt. He's had a go at other players before in the press, he lacks class and just comes across as a prick. 

[johnsusername]

The itv coverage is a mixed bag. They've got some good commentators and pundits, and it's a bit more relaxed than the BBC. But it does come across as a bit more amateurish, and Jill Douglas is no Hazel Irvine.

 

What I do prefer is they hang around after a match for longer - the BBC always seem in a rush to get off the air. It's a joke after a final there's barely any pundit review of the match or tournament.

O’Sullivan out of sorts against Vafaei here, about to go 2-3 down in a first to five. 
 

This tourney was all set up for a Ronnie-Trump final.

Lost track of this tournament. Hope Vafaei wins it

I’ll lose track of it myself if Ronnie goes out here. It’s 4-3 to Vafaei.
 

Lot of interesting plot lines though. A few players looking to nail down a top 16 place to be seeded in Sheffield. 
 

There’s only the Tour Championship and the World’s after this. 

[Captain Turdseye]

Make that 4-4 

[Captain Turdseye]

Boss this, @Bjornebye. O’Sullivan came out and did a shit left-handed break off. Vafaei made 33 and then a BAD MISS. 

 

Ronnie’s broke down on the last red. Drama!

[Captain Turdseye]

O’Sullivan misses frame ball. 26 ahead, 27 on. 
 

Vafaei wins. Mad decider, that. 

[Bjornebye]

Haha ffs gutted I missed it now 

[Creator Supreme]

You silly prick Ronnie, good luck to Vafaei though, seems a good player.

 

I really do think they need to get the Mitchell and Webb commentators doing a couple of games in the world's, late sessions obviously.

[bigthrusts]

Mad that Neil Robertson has to qualify for the worlds for the first time since 2006.

Always liked Williams. 
 

Hopefully he fucking destroys Trump in the semis.
 

His lad is meant to be some player too.  

[Creator Supreme]

Watching the first session of the Tour Championship final.

 

At the interval Ronnie was 1-3 down to Mark Williams who has been playing brilliantly this week.

 

At the end of the first session it's now 5-3 to Ronnie, Williams scored a total of 2 points in those last 4 frames. Fucking ridiculous.

And now Williams is 7-5 up and about to go 8-5 up.

 

It's feast or fucking famine with these 2, but it's amazing they're my age and still amongst the best in the world.

They’re both shite, they should both lose 9-0. Hate this fucking game but it’s like a drug man. Neither are as good as they were when they were shite. 

[lifetime fan]

Glad Selby is out, can’t stand the boring cunt but his head is obviously fucking fried and I hope he gets the help he needs.
