This is exactly how Selby gets you over the longer length matches. Plays like a bit of a twat then turns into a relentless potter and tactician, before steamrolling away with it.

Is that face O'Sullivan does at the end of every frame he wins (maybe only the ones at the ends of sessions/mini-sessions) because he thinks the fake clapping is stupid or is there something else to it?
I hadn't appreciated that McGill is yet to make a century in the tournament. Hopefully he can go all the way and keep that stat intact.
Our lad's bought some cueing action overnight
I don't suppose there's any way Selby and O'Sullivan can both lose?
Ronnie failing to go 5-1 up there has probably saved someone from being the victim of a hate crime. Selby looked like he was plotting in his chair.
Selby has been a bag of nerves here by the looks of it.
And this is how it starts, by ruining frames.Originally Posted by Yevrah
And then continues with this sort of horrible shit.
The jester can fuck off making me miss the last 10 minutes of PSG.
I've barely even brought up The Jester from Leicester in my nickname ramblings.
Where is that song? Someone find it on youtube, I'm on a phone.
Stumbling upon that fucking video is probably my greatest service to this stupid forum.
100% straight, 100% earnest. A magnificent artefact.
He also, adorably, has about 250,000 views on his 'retirement song'. The thought of that absolute wank getting played at actual retirement parties and shit makes me delighted and horrified in equal measure.
Has anyone ever seen Mark Selby with a second facial expression?
He's clearly got to Ronneth in this frame. What was that shot?
O'Sullivan looks like he's sick of this shit.
I hope you're not suggesting that THE JESTER is just some bullshit nickname and that he's not in fact a jovial, charismatic, raconteur-sort of person.
O'Sullivan's all over the place here.
This is horrible to watch.
O'Sullivan needs to get out of this session with whatever he can salvage and screw his head back on.
He's got to be one of those like Alan Shearer who seemed dull as anything but everyone would confirm he's a great laugh in the dressing room. At least with Peter Ebdon he left you in no doubt via the medium of song
He'll need to be on the phone to Dr Steve Peters during the interval as his head's completely gone.
Maybe he'll come out throwing faeces.
Why doesn't (Hi everybody!) Dr Steve Peters just go out and hold his hand, he's like a support llama.
Kyren Wilson seems like a bit of a fanny in this thing they're showing.
"That's probably why people call me The Warrior."
(to his wife) "I mean there's a snooker Kyren and a home Kyren isn't there?"
Gosh, you're so deep!
What did O’Sullivan hit?
The table.
They showed it shortly after when it was over.
Also, someone needs to have an intervention with Jimmy white about that toupee.
yeah, White's hair is almost exactly like my sister's 60 year old mother-in-law.
Just tuned in and what the fuck has happened in this frame? Those reds are dreadful.
Even looking at Gill makes me sleepy, let alone watching him play.
I've met the Jester. We talked about Higgins being bent as fuck. He's a nice bloke.
Tartan McNugget feels like he's reaching the end of his road here.
There was a point earlier where I felt like Wilson was taking silly risks because he was sick of McGill's shit but now he's ahead he'll probably coast it.
Not that he's beating whoever comes next anyway.
The final's got a Wilson win written all over it, the loveable retard that he is with his collapsed skull.
I have to admire Selby's commitment to annoying O'Sullivan into submission.
O'Sullivan with a magnificent 134 break...but Selby returns to the table needing 21 snookers and Satnav Selby is certainly capable of it.
Yeah I think he'd come back to the table for anything just in the hope of winding him up.
Also by the sounds of Alan McManus talking about Wilson there his criteria for somebody being a top fella is that he'll say "Morning, guys" to people he knows when he walks into a room.
Alan McManus is a real Proper Snooker Man.
What O'Sullivan needs is to come out for the evening session with a white shirt. Selby's jumped on his black shirt hype and frankly, he needs to switch it up now and get that youthfull Rocket swagger back.
O'Sullivan spraying the colours all over the table is making him much more relatable all of a sudden.
Stick a fork in this one. Selby has broken him.
Some frame, that. Get this and we're still in it, you cunt.
Do the BBC not have a latest score thing for this?
Not really, it's shite.
It did look bad at the time but the timing of this was perfect.
I thought Selby was ending this session on 15. Hell of a result that for Ronnie despite playing horribly.
I didn't see any of it, but it'll need to be one of his best ever career performances to win by at least 7-3 tonight.
Some would put at least a 7-3 beyond even his abilities.
Maths fail, it's 6-3.
