    I bet he doubles this in and snookers himself on the brown.

    The both look exhausted

    Pity about the miss rule when you need snookers, I don't really agree with it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,522 ✭✭✭✭El_Duderino 09


    Full credit to Wakelin he keeps playing on for snookers, but I haven't seen him get one good snooker -except that one.

    These last few frames are great!

    Incredible final frame. Wakelin has unreal nerve

    I think the green needs to be hanging over a pocket at this stage for Judd to pot it


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,759 ✭✭✭Mr. Guappa


    Gutted for Wakelin.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,792 ✭✭✭taytobreath


    Great match, poor quality. Judd won’t go far though, he cracks under pressure.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,663 ✭✭✭Muppet Man


    Gutted for wakelin.... Feels like he should have won it. Trump was baked.

    Good match. Judd rode his luck big time. Wakelin has only been pro for a few years, he'll be back

    Poor Wakelin is holding the tears back in his interview.

    Epic stuff,surely trump will improve in the next game,he'll need to


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,792 ✭✭✭taytobreath


    Trump gave a real good interview there, said he wouldn’t of been able to post the winning ball

    Is that how it works when one of the top seeds goes through that sort of trial by ordeal in the first round? Or are they so drained they can't raise their game for the rest of the tournament?

    P.s. what sort of haircut is that on Neal Foulds? Is that how the hipsters are styling their hair this spring?

    Was at the Allen v Perry game this afternoon. I was the guy in the front row coughing up a lung so badly Mark stopped playing and asked was I ok. Morto.

    Was also at Trump v Wakelin tonight. Always wanted to be at a late night final frame decider. The drama and tension were unreal. Real pity Wakelin couldn't get over the line. Trump has zero bottle.

    Ronnie in the morning now :D

    Ronnie is surely a dead cert in this one. His career record against Carter is 16-1, and there's nothing to suggest Carter will buck that trend this time around. Carter is a good player and never a pushover but if Ronnie is anywhere near his best I'd expect something like 13-6 or 13-7.

    Yeah it was Alan, I think he is decent enough certainly better then Ebdon imho.

    Alan McManus with his Cravat. Not seen since the 70s.

    Very inconsiderate of someone in work to schedule a meeting for 11 am this morning.
