>>151789918The humidity of Chinese arenas, and its influence on the surface and pockets of the snooker tables, has never fixed a frame or match.
Young Chinese Amateur Wang taking four frames off Shorn lmao he must be seething

>>151805718Nah it's weird, there have been four events in China and each one has been a century/maxi fest. They very clearly are trying to "grow the sport" by widening the pockets in foreign events with "untapped markets" to make it attractive to casuals.>>151805839>potential Hawk/Jester semi-final
