There's been some craking matches so far, Murphys last match was a final frame decider against (haigh?) some bloke from Stoke. Also enjoyed watching Selby getting taken out in second round by Scott Donaldson 
Was going to start a thread but didn't think it'd get any interest
Was going to start a thread but didn't think it'd get any interest
I have started threads for the Masters and the Worlds in the past, but likewise I wasn't sure if people were up for the UKs.
I really enjoyed watching Yan Bingtao for the first time yesterday. He's certainly a rough diamond, but didn't jump the gun with attacking play.
I love the Nugget and everything, but I really wish Steve Davis would refer to the Chinese players properly, as Yan, Ding, Liang, etc. Calling him "Bingtao" just sounds naive.
ETA: I've got tickets for a session at the Masters in January. Get the fuck in!

Ronnie vs Maguire
Hendry's commentating has a noticeable amount of table-psychology insights. I want to call bullshit on his game theorising but, who is going to call bullshit on hendry

maguire had more than enough chances there, ok some bad luck but really. Ronnie wasn't exactly on it.
classic hendry on o'sullivan:
'he never hits a wrong shot'
as the opening white goes in the pocket

thanks will have look at that! got my laptop nicked so cant currently stream iplayer or even open that link on current device, but appreciate the thought
you cant beat a bit of bbc commentary and presentation though
He does, generally. Is it so simple that Junhui is Ding's "first name" equivalent? Your username suggests you may know more than I do about Chinese name protocol.
Murphy looked incredible from distance last night. Everything just flew into the centre of the pocket, but still he keeps breaking down and fails to make the big breaks. I expect him to win tonight though.
Maguire was a bit blown away by O'Sullivan before the interval, but full credit to him for coming out afterwards. O'Sullivan only showed traces of his top game, and may well be benefiting from the other top players being knocked out early.

he's got better form than ronnie was showing earlier. Team Day though, given he needs the win more as a lower ranker
