He isn't like Taylor though by a country mile, only comparing the ethical code of both snooker and golf when players call fouls on themselves, and Golf is definately a good comparison.

yea i know lol

But I know what you meant Wild often when snooker comms talk about Golf it's always donkey doo From Clive though we never hear that sort of crap.

Shot from Murphy

Shame he's not on an easy black.

I'm working hard again, following the snooker online, lol.

So, Everton isn't namedropping people who he's played golf with, then.

"I've met Judd's dad, y'know....." Well done Taylor, good for you.

Shaun pulls one back.

Mark Selby 3-2 Shaun Murphy

Murphy looks like a school boy in this outfit

Magnet alert

Murphy has always looked like George Dawes



i guess having hair makes him feel a bit different lol

Fluke from Selby but can't take advantage...

poor shot from murphy might cost him this match

Mark nowhere as good as he was on Sunday, but never really troubled by Shaun. On to face Mags or Higgins next.

Neither of them in brilliant form, but maybe Mags has had more time to work on his game since he didn't go to Antwerp.

Tuesday 19th of November

Group 2

1pm

Mark Selby 4-2 Shaun Murphy H2H Selby leads 14-11

NB 2.30pm

John Higgins v Stephen Maguire H2H Higgins leads 8-7

7pm

John Higgins/Stephen Maguire v Mark Selby

Head to Heads
Higgins v Selby Selby leads 9-6
Maguire v Selby Selby leads 9-6

Selby is Davis with better breakbuilding.

I don't think this result was ever in doubt. Selby is a top 4 player, Murphy I'm not sure if he's even a top 16 player at the moment.

Out of interest, what does the venue look like?

Murphy is definately still a deserving top 16 player, but at the moment things really aren't going his way, but as Clive said I think he'll rediscover some of his form and get back to good results. Mind you, his good results are often reaching the semis of events and then losing, which isn't a bad thing but he lacks trophies that's for sure.

Yeah fully agree with him

its a tad ironic how much Stick Selby gets from bonafied Steve Davis fans

I think it's ironic you like Selby and dislike Davis. Obviously that might have somthing to do with the rivalry between Steve and Stephen

Selby will be overtaking Davis in centuries very soon but the game was so different in the 80s

At his best, he's top 8 easily, possibly top 4 because he reaches so many semis.

I wrote "at the moment". At his best he can beat anyone.

your only as good as your last match


Murphy has had many poor performances you cant get away from the fact hes a rubbish player at the moment.

Mark Selby has a superior Head To Head over John Higgins.

I'm surprised by that, though I'm not quite sure why. Mark Selby is one of the best, of course. I just thought because John Higgins was John Higgins, he'd be leading.

There was a spell in 2007/08 Mark Selby constantly beat Higgins. But after that Higgins defeated him in some very important matches.

I disagree. That would mean Stephen Hendry is a rubbish player.

OMFG John Higgins is shanghai masters champion

Jill Douglas

Well it's only 5-4 Selby ignoring any League rubbish, and three of the matches John has won were at the Crucible, so it's less one sided.
