2016 World Snooker Championship Edition.
Let's try this. Who are your favourites? Will Ronnie be able to get his 6th?
Shit, I forgot about /147/...
Well...
http://bbc.com/sport/snooker/36043537
COME ON JUDD
>neil 0-3
woah, what happened?
>>66941055
It's a long match I am sure he will win in the end, although I don't know how bad is he playing because I am not watching his match.
Make a new thread. Been refreshing /147/ all morning no wonder its dead
>>66941395
agreed
everyone search for "147" first
>Second thread without /147/ already for the champs
>>66939509
>Ronnie 2.50
only an absolute mug would take those odds
the arrogant cunt is past it. won't ever win a triple crown event again barring some insane luck
Unlucky you flash aussie prick
Anyone in here for afternoon sesh?
>>66942530
waiting for Eurosport to pick up coverage
>>66942585
Just watch on BBC2 mate. It's what we pay the license fee for
>>66941055
He's 6-3 down now
RIP Neil
>>66942650
It's not that bad. I still expect him to go trough
>>66942709
Maybe but who knows, the other dude is playing well
I don't really care who goes through as long as Ronnie wins the tournament.
No 147 in the OP again
This is unacceptable
>>66942733
why do you want ronnie to win? he's literally the most unlikable player on the circuit
>you will never strangle Coventry shirt guy to death then hack his body into pieces and hide them in the floor boards
Feels bad man
>>66942622
>just watch BBC2
>in Slovenia
>>66942733
Well Robertson came back from worse and Holt is a choker and underachiever. I just hope that we will have an interesting evening session.
>>66942785
He's probably one of those GO ON RONNIE cunts
>hating on the greatest snooker player of all time ,just because he has a few mongy fans
/sp/ you never surprise me
>>66942898
>>>/reddit/
>>66942898
>the greatest snooker player of all time
Steve Davis is retired pal
>>66942924
>i know I'll call him reddit!!!
>>66942926
Have you ever watched snooker from that era lol
>>66942898
>dodges interviews
>arrogant as fuck
>always looks disinterested
>lack of respect for opponents
etc.
Also Hendry is the best of all time, the guy was an absolute machine. O'Sullivan has been far too inconsistent over his career to be considered the greatest
>>66942979
forgot my pic
List of players who won most World championship:
1. Joe Davis 15
2. Fred Davis & John Pullman 8
4. Stephen Hendry 7
5. Steve Davis and Ray Reardon 6
7. Ronnie O'Sullivan 5
>>66942979
>>66942998
I'll accept Hendry is better
But most of them things you listed about roonie make menlike him more if I'm honest.You can't deny if roonie was a good BBC boy like the others he would be breaking even more records then he already is.Also I don't want to play 'muh childhood' card but it's not like he's had a easy life
>>66943035
each to their own I guess
You're probably right about his attitude costing him more success which is a shame, I don't think many people would deny that ronnie at his absolute peak is practically unstoppable
DAY MAN
>>66943035
>>66943115
yeah, with everything that O'Sullivan accomplished in his career, he is still underachiever as strange as it sounds. IMO he is definitely the most talented player of all time.
Why is ebdon commentating so much fuck off you lost
>you will never make a ton
>you will never make half a ton
>if you made a quarter of a ton you'd be happy
Lovely positional shot from Allen
Ho ho time for pot quiz
>>66943180
>tfw when you would rather see Ebdon still in the tournament, then listening to his commentary

Dont worry lad ,I'm gonna make one tomorrow morning with all the correct details >>66944362
>>66944732
In fact I can't just remembered I'm banned
>the city of Mann
>>66943351
Point taken.
Did anyone see Mann choke and just not hit the brown when he had the frame wrapped up?

Whoops didn't mean to include the strawpoll link
>>66944939
Only saw the first 4 frames
Mann was playing well for a first timer ,has he fucked it?
>this fucking terrible frame
Thank God that's over.
>>66945004
I'm not that bothered just don't want people to miss out
>>66945039
He's Ebdon, average shot time 32 seconds.
>>66944939
Holy shit he missed a second time and still won the frame. I can't handle this choking.
>>66945039
Did his best to fuck it miscued again but the pistol misfired and let him off 6-3 at end of play
Just started watching this year's championship. Been too busy with work but now I'm going to follow it.
Have I missed much? Who is going to win this year?
>>66945079
Bingham and Murphy are already out. No one seems in exceptional form yet, cumonronnie looks best of the bunch so far.
>tfw you kill the thread
>>66945079
RonGOATS gonna win lads
>not rooting for MJW
How has Mark Allen been in the top 16 for so long? Every time I see him, he's completely mediocre
>>66945241
idk, I think rankings are a bit strange. I mean Selby has been world number 1 for 1176 days, although I'm a huge Selby fan boy, I find it a bit odd.
>>66945392
Yeah one big win stays on for two years so id expect Selby to drop down a bit once most of those wins start coming off
>>66945464
Yep, provisionally he is number 6 at the moment and if (when) Allen advances he will slip to 7th place.
Haven't been on /147/ since last year. I seem to remember most people hate Judd Trump. Is that still the case?
>>66945566
Hate for someone called Judd is eternal
Much hope for Holt to Halt Neil do we think? Would like to see The Hitman do well and at least take it close.
>>66945566
Trump's still a brat but he matured a little and Michael White came into the picture.
>Soon there will be Dart's style idents and walkons for snooker
Hope you lot like excessive amounts of bass
>>66945624
and crowd will be singing there is only one Ronnie O'Sullivan
>He's my favourite player because he's a vegan
Fuck off Gina
>>66945597
Holt's got this game now.
Post yfw the autistic ginger Australian gets BTFOd in the first round
>>66945706
Does Gina know Ebdon is a fucking vegan
>>66945754
I have a strange feeling that Holt will choke. We'll see...
>>66945849
So based
>>66945817
Neil isn't lookin great but yeah i think he need to get to 9 before the interval and not let him regroup
>>66945754
Stephen lee did nothing wrong
>>66946015
he'll be back! Only 8 years to go!
>>66946085
>implying that human embodiment of adipose tissue that is Stephen Lee is gonna survive till then
Robertson's definitely coming back, he seems to win from behind every year.
>>66946179
good point!
>muh kick
When will this meme end?
Good evening, /147/. Missed yesterday and most of today. Did anything of note happen?
>>66945689
WALKING IN RONNIE WONDERLAND
>>66945754
>mfw
>>66946267
Welcome back mensur
>>66946267
Matches have been pretty straight forward, nothing undeserved yet. Gilbert did a really good job against Ronnie and Walden almost croaked against entertainment man, that's pretty much it.
>>66946288
Yo, ty.
>>66946361
Thanks. Yes, from what I've seen of Gilbert during the Sunday session he seemed to give Ronnie a bit of match and played very decent although once he mada a mistake Ronnie was there to punish him.
Who's these fucking mugs that keep making threads?
>>66946424
We missed you :3
>>66946267
Ronnie also skipped his media obligations after the game and got warned for it.
Is Holt already chocking?
>>66946652
CANT HALT THE HOLT
Is barry paying people to fill seats? Same people there again
>Neil
>>66946510
:3 I missed you too
>>66946607
lel, never change Ronnie.
Robertson clearly still isn't over the ass whooping he got in the Welsh Open final.
Nice red
It's miles away from the pot ffs
Someone give Virgo a live-feed of the cue-ball cam already
>>66947474
He's overusing that catchphrase
Holty for worlds?
BLOWN THE FUCK OUT
>9-4
ACTIVATE THE BANANA
>Vegans
This is why Robertson keeps under hitting his shots the weak fuck
It's happening guys!
Where were you when Robbo was kill?
Anyone know who the guy commentating on the other match with Willie is?
>>66947599
Laying on my sofa wearing kneehighs and panties. Pretty comfy desu senpai.
>you will never butcher a wild tibetan antelope and leave the mutilated bloody carcus on peter ebdons front lawn
Why even live?
>>66947768
>you will never smear his wife with its blood
Why are /snooker/ and /cycling/ the two comfiest sports to watch? Can anything else even come close?

>>66948597
Holt fluked a red in from the bunch. Robertson then fluked a red from one end of the table to the other
>it's a Barry Hawkins chokes episode
I hope Robertson manages to fight his way to 9-9 and then still loses the match.

It would have been a good snooker too if it had worked.
>>66949193
Just give me a wig
>>66939440
I get the bus home like 15 meters away from this spot.
Weird seeing it on 4chan.
>>66949253
Why are you not there?
Can Michael Holt Nick one more frame? He really looks like the wheels have come off, but surely he can't lose five frames in a row or whatever.
>>66949253
put us up for a /147/ snooker sess?
>>66949253
I walk by the cologne main station every other day, it was really weird seeing people discuss that shit on here.
CAN'T FAULT THE HOLT
>>66949365
I don't know; it looks like he's going to lose this frame too. I wouldn't Holt my breath :^)
>nobertson
>>66949417
Hopefully he dosent have this game robbed(etson) from him
>ausfailians

>muh centuries babby
Well, that's that! Good night lads and whoever opens thread tomorrow DON'T FORGET TO INCLUDE /147/!
>>66949602
For as long as he's in it, definitely. I suspect he won't last long, but he could be this year's Anthony McGill.
>>66949654
Casual much?
>>66949668
>Not stating for the Hawking's match
>casual
>>66949602
I'm rooting for Holt and Wilson.

Nah I know you autist dislike roonie ,just b8ing tbqh
is there a more boring player than hawkins? he has the personality of a wet flannel
/147/ Who to Back Power Rankings

I get the feeling he's a violent hooligan in his personal life. He really wouldn't look out of place in a Millwall shirt, kicking seven shades out of a Pakistani shopkeeper. It's always the quiet ones you have to watch out for anyway.

ALL THE BALLS OF SPOT REEEEEEEEEEE

Hes called George Riley i assume he owns Rileys or something...not sure why the Beeb have him doing it guess they thought no one would watch this.
>>66949859
Every game I ever play desu
Who /smash all the reds on break off/ here?
>>66949872
fucking hell I knew he sounded familiar, thanks
Riley is better known for presenting football shows on radio 5 and even presents football league on channel 5
where the hell are the other regulars?
>>66949887
nicking the reds and getting the ball back to up the cushion is the only thing I'm good at
Then my m8 will just fucking wallop it into the reds
>its a barry hawkins misses a sitter episode

The one time I played snooker, I rebounded the cue ball off the bottom cushion into the pack. But then, that frame took like two hours to play because we were both so awful, so maybe my tactic isn't ideal.
pull it together hawkins
>>66950048
I'm supporting Hawkins so Ding will be doing out hopefully
>>66950021
Does that count as >asp or an American talking about pool?
Barry looks like a Barry
The standard in this match is bloody awful
>>66950125

Ronnie O'Sullivan looks like a Dan though.

HOL' UP
Zhang is a manlet?
>>66950245
He's Asian, of course he is
>>66950224
To be fair, I can't see either of these players making it to the semi-finals, let alone the final.
