World Snooker championship.

Strange game between Brecel and Day. Misses, flukes (one absolute screamer from Brecel), in-offs, doubles. Entertaining in its difference if not the highest quality.

Yep, very scrappy match. Both players looked nervy, Day in particular. Surprising, when you consider their professional standing, but the tension must be immense.

Pleased Brecel won through, he shows more flare round the table, which I like.

Not many really awesome performances so far...looks like Ronnie if he stays focused.

Is the Regency snooker hall still there in Catford? Used to be above a bed shop. I spent many a long hour there

Brecel is exciting if a little flaky. But Day just never seems convincing. Having done it before, Brecel knows what it takes.

Can we all agree on disliking Mark Allen?

I do like the guy but it seems like he lost his love of the game some time ago. There was all the financial difficulties he landed himself in and it seems like he now just plays for money, whether he admits that to himself or or not.

He does not seem the most joyous person.

Is that code for being a complete willy wonka?

I assume so, it was along rushey green, we spent so many hours in there back in the 80’s one of us should’ve ended up world champion🤣

He certainly won't be later this evening. Looks like he's on his way out of the competition, despite a maximum 147. And no, I'm not all that keen on him either AS. Won't be sorry to see him go.

Brecel just put on a spectacular show. Ding looks shell shocked.

Some achievement by Judd Trump to get 100 century breaks in a season - more than Alex Higgins got in his entire career. Jimmy White said it was because when a frame was won Higgins would try to entertain rather than concentrate on running up a big score.

Centuries only seemed to become such a big thing with Hendry and then up a level with O'Sullivan. I remember Mark Williams not even caring.

He cares now the lazy bar steward.

I think a Trump ( not him,the Somerset born boy) and O'Sullivan final is on the cards.
