Bloody amateurs.
More Dom in comms!
Is that what happens.
Whoever loses to Si Jiahui, has to work on commentary? Is that why Murphy does so much of it now?
Yes, you’ve cracked the code! GCHQ have a place for you

No, I’m not that bothered TBH; happy to have a bit of a break before the Worlds kicks in…
Not bothering with the Tour Championships?
I might dip in and out. It’s longer matches, isn’t it? I do like a longer matc

I assume the lack of activity is because everyone’s been too riveted by the action to post.

The WST channel has 3 videos, the longest is 8 minutes and titled "Robertson Makes Classy Century To Knock Out Amateur Simmonds [4-2, R1] | WST Classic"
Not really much point watching the video once you've seen the title, really.

I saw Dave Gorman do a bit on internet videos like that once.

There's no point looking on YouTube for snooker if you want to avoid the results. If the title doesn't give it away, there'll be an interview with the winner there as well.

Many subplots - 3 tour places still up for grabs, and Crucible places. All on this one little tournament.

Yes but in some ways it's better to have a smaller tournament as the last one before the cut-off. It used to be the China Open, with huge prize money. Any player who had a decent run had a chance to leapfrog into the top-16, which created a lot of uncertainty.

Jan Verhaas reffing on the main table. Dave Hendon said he will be reffing at the Crucible as well.

That’s one way to look at it. On the other hand, the possibility of a dark horse doing well in a big tournament immediately before the WC might create a bit of a story. It’s an opportunity for a lower-ranked player to transcend the ceiling and get on the big stage.

Mark Allen in commentary there, saying Gary Wilson’s waistcoat is “like something you’d see in a bad Chinese restaurant”.

allen is one of the worse dressed players on tour and is in no position to offer sartorial advise.
