    Fair play to ali carter.

    Just wondering guys, if ronnie gets another 147, can he claim a share of his money back? (2/3 to him, 1/3 to ali) or is it always split 50/50 when only 2 people are involved?

    He did say when interviewed straight after the 147 that he was off to his bookies to cover it.

    What odds on another 147? Gotta be 9s? 10k on that would have seen him fine.

    I would bet on Hendry to make one especially if he gets through this round, sure he has to get back on terms with Ronnie for total career maximums

    He'd be pretty annoyed now if he put it off till the day after! Although if you're going to put ten grand on a bet like that you'd do it sooner rather than later.

    Given the previous rareity of 147s at the Crucible he'd be forgiven for thinking that he had the £157,000 to himself.

    Its crazy to think that O'Sullivan has nearly 50% of 147s mabe at the Crucible,what a player.

    and there was a bonus prize that year of a lambo sports car, so you can round it up to €200,000:(

    This question is becoming more pertinent now in frame 9 of the final!!

    Edit: Nevermind, as soon as I clicked 'Submit', Ronnie chose to play for the blue!

    Edit #2: They just said that he wouldn't have made any more money had he knocked in another 147
