O'Sullivan just got another 147. Most talented sportsman that ever lived in my opinion. But I am a snooker fanatic, so...

A new tip would definitely ruin his game (as it did for Mark Williams earlier in the tournament when his tip split). Even I can tell the difference when I put a new tip on my cue, and I'm shit. Pretty certain Fu's just glued the tip back on, rather than use a new one.

What's your handicap cheese?

Ruin his game? Bollocks.

HIghest break is 45. Missed an easy pink thinking about position before I realised I could've broke the 50 mark.

Ask any professional. A lot of pro's give out tips to the members of their clubs to use for a bit, then cut them off to use as spares in case theirs drops off. The state of the tip is more important than you'd imagine, especially at professional level.

My tip was a mess after my first few weeks at university

Never went to University, but had a few occasions when my tip was RUINED. Deep screwing the brown can be risky.

McManus just came twice across the table in response to Ding's perfect length. Enjoying this match very much.

Did you miss an easy pink? Many browns? 

Anybody who has played pool down the pub will know what it's like to play with a cue with no tip or a back wall blocking your arm action

 

Snooker players have it so easy

You are correct it will affect him as a new tip will play differently. However, I doubt it will ruin his game.

I'm talking in the sense of a Semi Final of the World Championship.

Yes it is about the worst time it could have happened. Have you seen the temperament of Fu though? Very little fazes him.

Indeed. As proved when he came out after having his tip glued back on. Been a great tournament so far. Probably one of the best in my lifetime. Close to breaking the record for the number of centuries.

Ronnie on the one table is the only thing missing!

I'd have loved Ronnie to still be in it, but he lost the plot a bit after the First Round. Heart is saying McManus to win it, but head is with Ding. That's why I've put money on Fu! 

I've watched more of this game today than I'd planned, it's been on all fucking day.

Same here...

Bit of a tear jerker if you're snooker-inclined.

Some match this...

 

Rockets on one

Top game, fair play to Selby. He has the best all round game and just will not go away

You on this cheese?

Indeed. Fucking belter! 

Hoping Selby does it, because John Higgins is a corrupt cunt who shouldn't even be playing. Other than that, may the best man win!

hard to watch after Ronnie the GOAT was knocked out.

 

not keen on selby

Was hoping Ding would do it. Everyone's favourite player after Ronnie. Higgins is superb, but that match-fixing thing leaves a bad taste, so I can't get behind him. But Selby dances in between frames sometimes. So I want Selby to win. That's how exciting snooker is.

I can't believe this shit is still televised, it really is dull as fuck. They need to do something to try and jazz it up,like only give them a maximum of 5 seconds per shot once they approach the table. Even then it would be dull as fuck, but at least it would be over sooner
