    This is that frame

    Ronnie got a great century previously 16th frame to go 9-7.

    In that last frame when Ronnie missed the blue, Foulds made an unusual point about O'Sullivan. Saying when he just has frame ball, not having to get position he is prone to missing them.

    That is really weird you would think it would be the other way around?

    Good win for Fergal today. Beating Noppon S and into the last 32 of the British Open.

    Ken could have set up an all Irish clash with Fergal in the last 32, but he's just lost to Matthew Stevens 3-4 from 3-1 up.

    Stevens has become Ken's arch nemesis in the last 10 years, keeps losing to him.

    Fergal wins 4-3. Into the last 16. Not a bad little run for him at this stage.

    Lisowski beat Fergal after a battle. Didn’t see it because they had Gilbert v Selby on live. Selby match still going pink ball game. With over an hour gone for the frame.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Selby won it on the black, when Gilbert went in off. Gilbert had loads of jammy luck in the frame though and still managed not to take advantage.

    We're in serious danger of a levelling up here, and (based on the recent pace) a midnight ending. Willo missing a red to mount a comeback from 40 down, then having a terrible attempt at next visit.

    Wow Selby missed that snooker escape by a whisker also giving a free ball and now looks like that's gave over.

    edit: and it is, dramatic finish. Congrats Williams.

    Not 100% sure on the rules but I think the referee may ask the players to break an impasse, or they will re-rack. They would be given say 3 shots each to do it. In the scenario last night Selby would have the incentive to avoid a re-rack by using his 3 shots to try change the scenario*.

    I think Tatiana played it perfectly, natural play led to an error that led to an opening that led to Williams winning. The situation itself was also tense and live, it had not become by any means a dead end scenario.

    I think the commentators were too early suggesting a re-rack might happen.


    * the way it eventually turned out, wonder would Selby have preferred a re-rack!

    Anyone else watching Brecel Moody? Watched Luca breeze first 2 frames and guessed it would finish 4-0.

    Tuned back in to see a decider in progress ... with 17yo at the table needing 4 reds.

    I’m barely following the English Open, but good win for O’Donnell over Selby.


    Is Ronnie out? I don’t see him on the results for today.

    Ronnie plays Jackson Page tommorow at 1. Page knocked out Ken last round and could take Ronnie if he's not up for it. He was slagging off the British venues again earlier.

    Fergal plays at 3 against World number 30 Si Jihui
