I am.
Selby seems to have found his good scoring game again and that's nice to see
He definately needs it if he's to win this title.

Poor Cliff becomes a sort of cartoon/ comic book character when his life's described by Dennis Taylor.

Apparently Neil's mum is coming. Don't think Robbo loses a tournament when she turns up.

Kick for Robbo. Far too many of these recently.
Maybe WS should listen to some of Smurph's ideas, because it's ridiculous how many we're getting in these important stages.

Agreed, the only way I can see Robbo beating Selby is if he blows him off the table with some of his stunning break-building, but at the moment it isn't happening.

Theres too many tinkering and fannying about going on to eradicate kicks and its just making it worst. Most kicks are to do with bad Cueing Ronnie hardly ever gets kicks because hes so free flowing and a great cueist.

Crucible matches won, Ronnie started the tournament on 53 ahead of Jimmy on 50. The BBC have all these flashy graphics but they don't check the basic facts.

Is there proof for this?
I thought they hadn't figured out why exactly kicks happen yet, though I saw a piece that suggested that when the exposed layer of one ball strikes another that it can cause a kick.

As someone who has better things to do than listen to Smurph, what was his ideas?

Expected Mark to miss that. Bit casual to leave himself straight on the black and leave a tougher shot.
