This is ideally set up for O'Sullivan to score heavily, regardless of the pink and black.

Pussyhands · 02-05-2022 02:37PM

Ronnie playing awful here.

rolling boh · 02-05-2022 02:37PM

Obviously a massive chance again missed by Trump looks Ronnie will stay far enough ahead to make it ok .

Okay but if the player pots the pink then lays down his cue, can the opponent insist he gets the black too?

I'm sure they can but goes against all snooker etiquette.

sligeach · 02-05-2022 02:47PM

Trump shouldn't have played the cannon. There was free reds. It's gone wrong.

newmember2 · 02-05-2022 02:47PM

This is the world championship final...have we even had many one and only visit frame wins??

sligeach · 02-05-2022 02:47PM

Jammy Ronnie.

Now jammy Judd.

What a jam

eric hoone · 02-05-2022 02:48PM

What a fluke!!

newmember2 · 02-05-2022 02:49PM

Can he make that fluke count...

testtech05 · 02-05-2022 02:49PM

Now that was a huge slice of luck for Judd. Maybe he was due one but needs to win this frame now

Say Your Number · 02-05-2022 02:49PM

F*ckin hell

Arthur Daley · 02-05-2022 02:51PM

He needed to win 6-2 this afternoon and he has

Rothko · 02-05-2022 02:51PM

Set up nicely for tonight now, especially if Trump can win the first frame.

sligeach · 02-05-2022 02:52PM

Some performance by Judd. Fair play to him. He deserved that fluke for all the bad luck yesterday.

newmember2 · 02-05-2022 02:52PM

Well done Judd Trump.

First session Ronnie lost all tournament. Trump hung on in there most would have folded. Expect Ronnie to ‘switch on’ for 3/4 frames.

No... he can't. Common misconception. If there are more than 7 points in it, the game is over.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rules_of_snooker

See the "end of a frame" section.

The striker leads by more than seven points with only the black remaining. They may claim the win at this point, but may also elect to pot the black despite having won the frame after potting the pink. This may be done if the striker wishes to complete a high-scoring break (see "Maximum break" below).

Pussyhands · 02-05-2022 02:56PM

Too quick to write the match off. One session did the damage yesterday and one session pulled it back today. Game on.

Say Your Number · 02-05-2022 02:56PM

Ah Ronnie doesn't care

Pussyhands · 02-05-2022 02:57PM

The match all depends on trump. He missed so many easy shots yesterday. Ronnie can't live with him when they go toe to toe.

Brian? · 02-05-2022 03:00PM

Ooohhhhhhhh it’s going to be a spicy evening session.

They cant. Frame is over.

HeidiHeidi · 02-05-2022 04:20PM

Jaysus, I was out playing tennis all afternoon - came in to find no snooker on anywhere, I was full sure Ronnie had run away with it!

So what's the actual score going into tonight?

Exclamation Marc · 02-05-2022 05:00PM

14-11 to Ronnie

Asdfgh2020 · 02-05-2022 05:46PM

How many time has the 1985 final been mentioned so far…..also is ‘where is that cue ball going’ doing any of the commentary………and Dennis (kyan-on) Taylor talking about how honest and professional all the players are….😡😡

HeidiHeidi · 02-05-2022 05:50PM

I've heard "Where's the cue ball going???" every time I've turned bbc on - hence I'm sticking with eurosport!!

Celebrating Jimmy's 60th on Eurosport. Doesn't look a day over 59.
