I dunno, but also it's a fucking pub game you mugs stop being so arsey. Not quite at rugby levels of "please be quiet for the kicker while he pouts at the ball really hard" but still.Originally Posted by igor_balis

I literally said out loud "why did he hit it so hard?!", which got a proper "I wish my son wasn't such a weirdo" look from my momz
What a legend though. Come on.
I fucking love Mark Williams
That yellow was a thing of beauty.
O’Sullivan vs Williams in the final would be tremendous.
Ronnie v Williams would be a lovely final if possible.
Crowd are properly behind Williams here.
Trump's popularity really suffers from being a dolt I think.
And spending the week running up to the tournament slagging off the sport because he wasn’t playing well. Ball bag.
The constant channel hopping the BBC do with this is an absolute fucking disgrace.
Get on Eurosport (if you have it), Joe Johnson talking you through each break is a soothing experience, and Jimmy White stumbling through his sentences in the studio equally so.
I can't cope with Eurosport for those very reasons.
And I wouldn't mind them switching channels so much if they did it in a sensible way, but they don't. Killing the end of that 22nd frame just now, for example.
This * 10000, the BBC coverage is truly hateful stuff. The bad dad jokes in the earpieces making the spectators giggle is up there with my least favourite things in sport. At least you don't have to hear the jokes on Eurosport.
The snooker crowd laughing is up there with the Wimbledon crowd laughing in the pantheon of worst sporting mirth.
BBC fucking off a snooker World semi final mid frame for Gardener’s World is a new low.
Red button, Eurosport, online, I don't think it really matters these days.
It is also still on an actual BBC channel as well no? [BBC4?]
Tbf if it was 1996 it would be well annoying, gardener's world is well rubbish.
I just can’t fathom how Gardener’s World warrants bumping off the semi final of the Snooker World Championship.
Regardless, what a tremendous session.
Williams 😎
It'd be nice if the Eurosport coverage didn't have the sort of resolution that makes it look like an 80s rerun.
Yeah, BBC4.
Am I the only one who likes the BBC commentators?
Nope, I do too. John Virgo is immense.
Thought you were more of a tennis guy, bro.
Proper dick Ronnie for the first hour, but that break was ludicrously good.
It takes two to tango to be fair to Ronnie.
I do like the blunt honest of Hendry.
I wonder if that female snooker player who doesn't have too much time to practice as she runs her own business realises how bitter she's coming across every time she mentions it?
Huge last frame for Higgins this.
Immediately stuffed the break off as well. Though that pot is exquisite from Ronnie.
Ronnies "my tip is wrong" is about the same as Lewis Hamiltons "my tyres are bad" at this point.
Back on Eurosport vs traditional broadcasters, you don't get this on the BBC.
These two frames have been pretty gutting. could easily be 13-13 but looking like 15-11. Boo.
Shut my damn mouth, what a couple of pots. Williams
Keep the faith Igor!
Massive frame that.
Oh no
Oh yes
Trump's head has gone.
Astonishing stuff this.
Williams has just been amazing every session I've watched so far.
I believe. Holy shit.
First bit I’ve seen as I’m visiting the folks. Have they been in the shoebox all fortnight on the BBC?
Lisowski looked like he was gonna cry there cause his bezzie lost that frame.
Shaun Murphy is such a prick.
Absolutely. Can't stand the man.
This one has got very tense. Trump should have had this 4 times over.
This has been great stuff.
That shot from Williams when he just smashed them all apart.
Trump seems to have recovered his long potting at just the right time.
Absolute madness.
Some fabulous attempts by Williams, but snooker players are just too good at getting out of snookers.
As I say that, imagine leaving a gap there.
