Ding and Williams better not disappoint today, though I'd be happy for Si if he won. I like his style
>>140309907wtf is this real
Every year I dare to dream and every year my Young Chinese Men lose and lose and lose. Feel like pure shite. Need Rob to hold me tight.
>>140310507next year is the Year of Snook er Snake, a win is certain
Tough start for Lisowski. He'll want to try and win a frame if he harbours any ambition of winning the match

Uncle Bazza laying the smackdown on Sheffield.
Imagine all this breakaway tour shit, the complaints about the Crucible etc. was all a falseflag to give an excuse to move to Saudi.>Ken calling out the bullshit straight awayGood
>>140333577Don't know if they can up the capacity of the Crucible, I've never been. Might need extensive rebuilding.
>LIFT ME UP, LIFT ME UPTakes me back to the ITV F1 days.
>Obligatory good-looking foreign interacial couple
yep it’s ronnie time
>>140333610I find the idea that "we need a bigger venue to make money" as complete shite to begin with desu. Whatever the capacity the ticket sales aren't going to cover that much more prize money or get bigger sponsors etc. It's just the crown jewel to sell off to the Saudis for the most money. Give the Saudis tournaments sure whatever but moving the Worlds from Sheffield would be like moving Wimbledon to...not Wimbledon, Milton Keynes for example.

GWAN JACKSON>>140319897Fucking lel>>140333737>>140333744Basically went "I wanna stay in Sheffiled but they have to make the effort to keep us. We don't live in a fantasy world, money is always most important" Ken then called him out and went "Yeah sure 3k people in the final is fine but it will look awful in the first round etc" Barry ignored him and just kept going "I don't want to move!!! But I have to!!!!!" Slimy shit as expected.
off to a fucking awful startit's so fucking over

>>140333654Why Saudi Arabia anyway? There’s not a single Saudi player on the tour. China is understandable, albeit still an offensive suggestion. But moving it to Saudi Arabia is so openly soulless that I just can’t accept it. Perhaps they are only pretending to discuss it so that people will complain less when they do move it to China.
Why is the live video on the BBC Snooker website so small now? I don't want to full-screen it but I don't want it the size of a postage stamp either
Ronnie is the Lisan Al-Gaib of snooker.
>>140333980money
>>140333980Saudis are getting more involved in sports and for whatever reason they all have the mind of children and pay stupid money for anything and everything. They would shill out much more than anyone else.
>>140333654The whole sport was already sold to the Chinese many years ago. Adding SA to that makes no difference.
>>140334040There's been a bloody Belgian world champion before there has been a Chinese one. What a loopy world we live in.
>>140334057must have been an AI-chatgpt-deepfake-hallucination

>>140334113Oh damn, I didn't know you could resize it! Thanks buddy
I can't believe there is someone even fatter than Brecel.
>>140333980Its a very complex topic, but simply put, Saudi Arabia want to establish itself as a world power, and its cities as world famous location. Riyadh and Dubai as the new New York or Paris say, and one of the big obstacles to this, aside from its obviously manufactured status, is that these cities were built using modern slave labour in ridiculously small windows, and that Saudi Arabia continues to committ a whole host of human rights abuses. And if you don't mind that, whatever, fill your boot. None of that above is even my opinion, its just objectively the situation, so I'm not really concerned with opinions. The Saudi solution to this hangup is sportswashing. Using sports icons we know to clean up the image. Theyve done it in boxing, theyve done it in golf, theyve done it in soccer, and now, for whatever reason, snooker is next. Tyson Fury, Tiger Woods, David Beckham, Robert Milkins. The thing is it works. The generation of soccer fans coming through think much higher of saudi arabia than the last generation, and thats off the back of Haaland, CR7, and even Mbappe, PSG being owned by Qatar, same story.
bros i thought renewables were the way forwardwhy is the oil winning
The crowd repeatedly shout "Go on Ronnie", but I've yet to see anyone at the crucible brave enough to openly urinate on him in front of the cameras
>>140334179He warned us...of the Saudi advance....we didnt listen...
Ronnie is a lucky son of a bitch to get an opponent like this on R1.
>>140334165>Tyson Fury, Tiger Woods, David Beckham, Robert Milkins.

That line Ronniefags use to cope, "h-h-he lost against h-himself"?I'm starting to think it's not that stupid. He loses against himself, because he plays against himself. And that's because he usually doesn't even have an opponent, like right now.
>>140334381He's leading 3-0 and you have the audacity to claim that we're coping?

Business idea, Saudi Super Snooker, a breakaway tour featuring Jodd, rpmmie, and hundreds of Saudi jobbers. Can be safely ignored.

Jackson will be hoping he can start potting a few balls and possibly even winning a frame.

GWAN PAGE
Ooof lovely bit of snooks that
>>140334518The BBC are doing a poll for the snooker GOAT. I voted Hendry but there’s no point. And Joe Davis isn’t even on there as an option. You can, however, vote for Selby if you want.
>>140335489Selby unironically has the best resume in the worlds. The weakest person he's beaten is Ding and that was prime Ding with like 5 triple crowns and was recently world number 1 (winning 5 ranking titles in the one season!) Even just in triple crowns the weakest player he beat is Stephen Lee, the rest are all elite, including Rpmmie three times.
this never would have happened in dubai right rmppie?
>>140309582Go Ronnie
mörk what are you doing mate
Is Page usually a jobber or is he just starstruck?
>>140335693He’s one of these meme players who did really well a couple of times and then didn’t even qualify for anything else. It is therefore possible that he has never, ever jobbed on TV. But he’s young and he has no hope here.
>>140335693I don't think you can be a jobber at age 22. He's a Young Welsh Talent that hasn't come good on his potential yet. Although he did have a good run in China recently beating Higgins and Selby before losing to Jodd in the final.
this never would have happened in china
>>140335743>22Fooking hell thought he was late thirties
What's caused the recent Ronnie resurgence? The amazon documentary made me think it might be his dad coming out of prison. Or could it be the rest of the pack falling away?
>>140335276damn, greggs makes you huge fast
>>140335798Rigging (unironically)
>>140335798He’s good enough to win some tournaments, and he spends so much time with sports psychologists that now, when he loses, he just claims he lost on purpose but totally could have won if he wanted to. And all the other snooker players completely believe this for some reason. He has mindbroken the entire tour. Everyone he plays, if they go ahead, they tell themselves that Ronnie is just letting them win and they don’t deserve to be beating him. It’s absolutely incredible how well this extremely basic tactic is working.
>>140335693>>140335731>>140335743Didn't be get completely blasted at the worlds last year too by Willo? At least in the second round
>>140336084he did indeed
>>140335798Ronnie is playing well below what you think good form Rpmmie is, but only a few players don't shit themselves against him, and they gift him matches. Sharter and Jubb collapsed against him this season for example. He then played Selby and Willo and going on pure performance got totally destroyed.
mörk's in btw
>>140336109I think the only time recently I've seen top form rodney is when he played against Ding in the semi-final. Was it the Grand Prix? Then Flub Blumpf played some of the worst snooker I've ever seen from him in the final. Gobshite.

>>140336643thanks
Why did Lisowski pot the pink ball? You're supposed to do them in order at the end, right? And why are they still playing if he's 38 aheadt. watched snooker for the first time yesterday
>>140336563really dislike Ali, he has such a haughty expression at all times
>>140336761Which frame are you talking about?After the final red you still get to pot a colour of your choice before having to go in order, if that's what you're talking about.>And why are they still playing if he's 38 aheadMostly style points if it's that big of a lead. But if the gap is only like 10 or so they will usually play on because fouls can still give bonus points. You can concede the frame at your own discretion, but concessions do not have to be accepted.
Evening lads, just got off work and looking forward to seeing Ding's year unfold on VOD

>>140339596Bobby, Barry, who cares.
what barry "austrian school of economics" hearn doesn't realise is that the only way for something to be eternally profitable is for it to be ingrained in one culture or another. moving snooker away from it's history to a country that couldn't give less of a shit about the content of the sport but see it only as a commodity, is not the way to allow this

Ryan 'happy birth' Day
One of the things I hate more than anything else in the world are, and yeah I'll say it, predominantly working class snooker fans who insist that Ronnie is constantly "on the gear" "Greatest, plays his best games on the packet, maybe should give some to Ebdon" All this in reference to a snooker match that happened 22 years ago. Unbelievably depressing
Imagine blorking this fucking hard. Good grief
wtf has he done in the mid-sesh?

>rpdmey v degaywell at least one of them is going out before the fimalin fact, I think degay has a bigger chance to stop rpm than the eternal blork merchantso, go aunties! I guess
>>140342391Some people like David Gilbert more than Luca Brecel. I must say I am not one of those people, but I do like Mark Allen.
>>140342535me I love mörk. I especially like the fact that he used to have an unpleasant rpmmie-tier attitude and has since become seemingly a pretty nice guy.
>>140342391mörk has been one of are guys at least since the billy bobbins incident >>140342475I agree that Si is on track to becoming one of are guys, especially if he continues to perform at the cruce

Also, when does the John Higgins-Jamie Jones match continue?
>>140343096tomorrow evening
does a /147/ iceberg exists? I'm not a fan of the format but I would have thought one would exist out there somewhere
>>140342480dont forget about page now
>>140343210it does, somewhere deep in the archive of the 202(0,1, or 2) world championship
>>140343349They literally won't even let you bet on Ronnie to beat him.
>>140343420holy moly
>>140343420cheeky fiver on the page comeback ahah
>>140343420bookies offering a 0.8% chance and that's still much shorter than what it really is lol
>>140343210Bottom is it's all rigged by 'the elites' and Ronnie ignoring them when he gets the trophy. I dunno if Ronnie is a freemason or not though. Not that big a Ronnie fan, but hopefully he's not in the secret handshake club :)
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand it's time for bed

Could you imagine a Kyren Wilson v Jack Lisowski final
weird day of snooker this
Rpmmie has it in the bag already. No one left who can realistically stop him.
gwanning page and jones to turn round 2 into a circus
>>140352717I'd be more than happy with that given the circumstances
>>140353362mörk will zest the life out of him in the final
>>140354207>inb4 18-5
For those of you that have been before/know - does the table allocation happen "dynamically" or can we already determine which matches will be played on which table?
>>140354207zest is sadly off the manu for this wc. it's gonna be boring gwaning from now on
>>140354278it is predetermined, when you are purchasing a ticket online during the 2 table setup it only shows the side of the theatre on which the players you want to watch are playing
>>140354359Yeah, I have the tickets already, but I'm wondering if we already know which match will be on Table One in a given session or they determine it once they know who's playing (as in, they would always put Rodney on Table 1 etc)
>>140354379well you wont know the player you just know where they can be if they keep on winning right? so lets say 2nd round winner of the first bracket plays on table 1 then the winner of the 3rd round from that bracket plays on table 2 and so oni have no knowledge of them assigning players to a specific table but then again im sure someone might know more
No morning session
>tfw Rpmmie will play meh all tournament then beat Gilbert 18-6 in the final

>>140354278Yes, top half of the draw is always table 1, bottom half table 2.
>>140355675Balls, that's not ideal. Anyway, thanks for the info, good to know in advance that I'll most likely see J*dd in the flesh
Why is rpmmie such an asshole?
>>140355811the fact that his dad is a murderer might explain some of it
>>140355847Wasn't that basically a bar fight? Not justifying what happened or arguing that his father isn't also an asshole but my understanding is that it was some sort of drunken brawl that ended in a death.

ILLUMINATI
>>140355856>bar fighthe stabbed the guy to death outside a night club. the guy he killed just happened to be associated with the kray brothers and there are reports that the murder was racially motivated. in addition to this, the o'sullivans are just a dodgy family in general. they were basically millionaire criminals while rpmmie was growing up, which meant that rpmmie had a particularly privileged upbringing compared to the average snooker player and he didn't exactly have good role models

So this year it is a 'Ronnie wins' edition, right?Or will we still have some exciting snooker kino to go?
Milkinsbros we're so back.
Alright that was actually a good shot
Apparently Milkins's ex-wife is lactose intolerant and that's why they had to get divorced.
>>140357651At the pub he's a cider drinker,on the table he's a spyder (ball) sinker
>>140357302reminds me of a surly pub manager who barred me once for calling him a paedo. he upheld the ban for 7 years and used to strut around much like the milkman.

>>140360882That’s Tom Ford, and my problem with him is that I can just tell, with absolute certainty, that he has an enormous cock.

>>140364465I unironically I liked him when he won stuff but then he did absolutely fuck all as world champion and said "I didn't like it" and I hope he never shows his face again
>>140364465Dunno I think he might just be a bit educationally subnormal (case in point, the quiz show).
>>140364465I like him. He's the player Ronnie wishes he was (wins a World Championship doing stupid meme shots, truly and genuinely does not give a fuck about snooker) but he doesn't have the awful dick-riding GWAN squad.
>>140364465I liked him when he was a meme that could play some absolutely scintillating matches and beat anybody but was equally as likely to play the worst match of snooker you’ve ever seen. I guess he’s still a bit like that but winning the world championship was taking the piss. (I feel the same about Mörk to be perfectly desu, but at least his new miserable playing style pisses off all the pundits which is funny.)
