[Poisoned Slice]

Because why not? I hope to be bale to see it. Real busy this week. I'm losing track and falling behind. Only just realized Spence and Garcia is a couple of weeks. Was thinking it was May or something. Anyway.

This one hidden away on ITV4.

Ronnie is leading 5-4. Looks to be in here to finish wee Barry off. GET INNNNN.

I thought this was a darts thread when I glimpsed it.

Where abouts is this being played?

Preston Guild Hall.

Preston Guild Hall.

Ronnies favourite venue, no doubt he will be up for it.

I would like to see Lisowski have a run at it, freshen the stale field up a bit.

[Poisoned Slice]

Great comeback from president Trump. 2-5 ends up 6-5.

Watching O'Sullivan vs Higgins now. 2-2 at the moment.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Loved that frame at 2-2. Lots of back and forward then Ronnie gets in there for the century.. Get in.

Falls a little short of back to back centuries. 4-2

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Ronnie advances with 6-4 win.

Semi final looks tasty. Ronnie vs Allen Trump vs Robertson

''Looking forward to it, yeah. It is difficult to judge through different eras, ya know''

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Mark Allen does not belong on TV tonight. Making life easy for Ronnie. Or is he making it hard? Depending on the point of view and all that.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

It has been a non event as a contest.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

''You simply don't concede frames when there are 11 reds left on the table.''

As much as I love to watch Ronnie do his thing, I still am a lover of a contest. This has been disappointing theatre as far as the contest is concerned.

Been sh1t, mate. Viva Australia.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

O'Sullivan vs Robertson.

 

[Poisoned Slice]

I didn't get to see the earlier session. Ronnie taking a 7-2 lead into tonight.

Good start for Robbo. He takes the first frame with a century break. 7-3.;

 

[Poisoned Slice]

Unreal.

Crowd is going wild. Ronnie makes his 1000th century in the match winning frame.

The GOAT player, the GOAT athlete, the GOAT. OLE OLE OLE OLE.

[Poisoned Slice]

Mr. Hendry on a bit of a rant there. Would be good for this forum. haha He says comparing sports is difficult etc. ''There is no way some of these other award winners have more talent than this man. No way.'' I luv it.
