@paulie8290 not sure if it's previously been posted on here but you'd probably enjoy the short documentary "The Snooker Mavericks" on ITV Player and Netflix. Watched it on the train this morning and enjoyed it.
haven't heard of it, might have to give it a watch. Also the American hustle with Ronnie always keep meaning to watch but never got round to it.
20s in, he's playing virtual pool and goes to lean on the table. Truly hilarious.
Thats the clip i have seen advertised, need to look into where i can watch it. Keep meaning to but never get round to it.
@johnnybev1987 it's all on Youtube amongst other places.
Ronnie O'Sullivan (2) Ding Junhui (3) Barry Hawkins (6) Kyren Wilson (9) Ali Carter (15) Mark Allen (16) Joe Perry (22) Rickt Walden (27) Jack Lisowski (30) Jamie Jones (51) Lyu Haotian (68)
First 2nd round game starts 2pm tomorrow, bit tight with not knowing the other results but if we can all do the predictions maybe before then. If you dont know the result just put winner of xx
Joe Perry v Mark Allen Kyren Wilson v Jamie Jones John Higgins/Thepchaiya Un-Nooh v Jack Lisowski Ricky Walden v Judd Trump/Chris Wakelin Ding Junhui v Anthony McGill/Ryan Day Lyu Haotian v Barry Hawkins Mark Williams/Jimmy Robertson v Neil Robertson/Robert Milkins Ali Carter v Ronnie O'Sullivan
To clarify....in the games not yet finalised: I pick Lisowski to win regardless who he faces I pick Trump to beat Walden, but I'd pick Walden over Wakelin I pick Ding to lose, regardless who he faces I pick Mark Williams to win, providing he gets through

Hi mate, thats not a problem. At the mo its the best we can do for now, as there is no break i think thats the best thing to do.
My predictions for round 2: Joe Perry v Mark Allen- Allen Kyren Wilson v Jamie Jones- Wilson John Higgins/Thepchaiya Un-Nooh v Jack Lisowski - Higgins - If Un-nooh wins Lisowski Ricky Walden v Judd Trump/Chris Wakelin - Trump to win , Walden if Wakelin Ding Junhui v Anthony McGill/Ryan Day - Ding to win whoever Lyu Haotian v Barry Hawkins - Hawkins Mark Williams/Jimmy Robertson v Neil Robertson/Robert Milkins - Williams to win Ali Carter v Ronnie O'Sullivan - Ronnie

was watching the Milkins/Robertson game last night. Robertson got away with winning final frame to trail 6-3
at 7-2 think it would have been all over.
I was watching Lisowski v Bingham, cracker of a game. Bingham probably should have nicked a couple near the end but failed. Very high quality but a few chances for each at the end which Jack took the chances. Be interesting to see him against someone who is so tactically sound in Higgins and would need to tighten up.
Milkins/Robertson, you would still think Neil should be able to get by but all in the early frames today like with Ronnies comeback, if Neil can get back to 7-6 after first 4 then he has a great chance,
Noted, if in the event Higgins/ Trump do not go through i will substitute for the person who beat them. Unless you state otherwise, should be fine but just wanted to double check.
Perry vs Allen Haotian vs Hawkins Carter vs O'Sullivan Wilson vs Jones Higgins vs Lisowski Williams vs Milkins Junhui vs mcgill/ day Walden vs Trump / Wakelin
Ronnie O'Sullivan (2) Ding Junhui (3) Judd Trump (4) John Higgins (5) Barry Hawkins (6) Mark Williams (7) Kyren Wilson (9) Ali Carter (15) Mark Allen (16) Ryan Day (17) Joe Perry (22) Rickt Walden (27) Jack Lisowski (30) Rob Milkins (37) Jamie Jones (51) Lyu Haotian (68)
Trump and Day not there yet but expect them to be, but if they lose I will replace them.

Only one of those is, I think, hard to call, Wilson v Jones because Jones has it in him to be a top ten player. All the others should be straightforward.
