    Correction - he was 49 ahead; but it looks academic regardless

    And that was all she wrote: 2 - 0 to Lisowski

    No update on the other match. Hopefully Davis can beat Joyce

    An atrocious miss there by Ollie on a 97 out of a hundred red

    And in a surprise to no one a straight 3-0 demolition job by Lisowski, who didn't even play anywhere near his best.
    Too many whipping boys in this comp - probably why the matches are only 4 frames long at most.. Give the journeymen a chance with a shorter format..

    Brecel very disappointing so far. Ranked 37! - was surprised to hear that.
    R Williams very good and takes the first convincingly

    Just in - from 1 nil down Joyce beats Mark Davis 3-1 in the other group.
    1-1 here between Luca and Williams. Early days frame 3.

    2 apiece Brecel-Williams. Honours even there. Fair result overall I thought

    Brecel and Lines just started there.

    According to Ken on co-comms Gilbert was the standout player yesterday. Hope he does well in this comp. Very likeable and humble fella by all accounts - proper player as well

    Robbie Williams a handy enough player; holding his own against Lisowski here.
    1 - 0 to Lisowski.
    Reckon he'll beat Lines easy

    And Williams manages to draw
    2-2 at the finish.

    If he beats Lines here he could top the group depending on how Lisowski does against Brecel next

    Currently well ahead in frame 1

    :pac:
    Gone now I think. Brecel through on a countback of sorts - highest break decided group-winner in the end. Both finished level on 5 points after their 3 matches.

    Think Mark Joyce through as well.

    Wasn't the greatest day of snooker ever.

    Well yesterday's card was brutal.

    Also, the novelty factor has worn off. Should get better in the knockout stages. That said; the next match should be very interesting indeed. A draw will be no good to the "jester", he might even get some banter going to try and put his opponent off :pac:.... but I don't if Liang speaks any English.

    Never saw the 'Jester' in Selby tbh. Boring **** like most snooker players.

    He got that nickname early enough in his career.. Totally unsuited to him now alright..

    He's operating at Diego Maradona level is Ron, circa 1986.
    Just gone a bit off the boil last 2 minutes.. Maybe he wants to play another frame :)

    Ronnie playing great. Excellent century to open up the match and a 82 in the second. Makes it look so easy.

    Phil Yates on the other hand not commentating great. He's just said the following 'Imagine rests could talk to each other. They'd say 'Ooh I've been used by Ronnie O'Sullivan today'. Met by absolute silence from Dominic Dale. I'd say he's delighted Ronnie is making quick work of this match.

    Yeah, Ronnie in a different Parish.

    Never know if it's Yates or Studd on comms - they both sound alike to me.

    Talking rests lol :pac:

    Yates doesn't seem to pause. No wonder he comes out with inane nonsense. Quality over quantity please.

    Ronnie impressive alright, huge contrast to virtually everyone else this week, even Trump.

    Dave Hendon is by far the best play by play commentator nowadays. Phil Yates is a great snooker journalist but his commentary isn't stellar. Johnson is the worst of them all.

    Hendon's great. Very knowledgeable and comes across well.
