    What happened there? The shrug from John?

    Very, very poor first frame by Higgins

    Think Higgins was pissed about the crowd laughing at the jokes. Was looking at the box while shrugging.

    That's the start he wanted. Bit of luck but they all get that at some stage. 10-8 and the comeback is well under way.

    Hate that when the "comedians" on the commentary crack jokes when the player is at the table and then the crowd start laughing. They seem to like playing up to the crowd wearing earpieces

    Played with pace but he can't be missing them off the spot.


    Fantastic shot from Selby to split the pack

    Alex Higgins was a big fan of Denis Taylor's Irish jokes apparently...

    some frame this, a 50 break from either would be some achievement

    Selby really is having the run of the balls in the first two frames today

    Same pocket templates have been used since 1991.

    A combination of table heaters, better cloths and better balls means the balls slide in off the jaws more than they used to on fresh cloths but it's been the same template for 25+ years.

    What about pre-1991 ,were they tighter then

    You could argue that's a bigger weakness than Selby looking up at the box

    He been shaking his head a fair bit

    Has it all to do but really needs to take this frame to stop Selby in his tracks.
