Red, Yellow, Green, Brown, Blue, Pink and Black. It's the General Snooker Thread!

Higgins' FIL has had a heart attack and there's questions about whether he might pull out of the tournament. Horrible predicament after some great form recently, including a tournament win.

 

[el_dazza]

Ahhh 17 days of bliss coming up!

I think Xiao Zintong will win the whole thing. He's in ridiculous form lately.

Lei’s playing a blinder against Kyren. He’s two frames up now.

Lei’s playing a blinder against Kyren. He’s two frames up now.

Quite a turnaround from the session earlier today.

 

[Feek]

Three up now.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Wilson is bang up against it here. The Chinese lad ain't stopping.

Crucible Curse looking a but safer so far, wasn't expecting Kyren to be so far behind when I turned this on!

 

[marc2003]

Nice fluke.

 

[el_dazza]

The crucible curse strikes again

Ooh maybe not yet..

 

[ic1male]

I hope Lei can do the job. Don't want another Kyren v Judd match in a week or so.

 

[Stu999]

Potential 9-9 now.

 

[el_dazza]

9-9 it is!

It's only the first night and we already have late night drama on the BBC!

 

[chrismscotland]

I've got TNT on - Day 1 and Dominic Dale doing my nut already

 

[Stu999]

Well played Peifan. Tense match.

 

[chrismscotland]

Some result, at least that stops 2 weeks of "will he break the curse" chat

 

[ic1male]

I've got TNT on - Day 1 and Dominic Dale doing my nut already

Oh I love Dominic’s commentary but TNT priced me out of their sub now.

 

[rickjames]

Wilson already with the excuses

Murphy must be loving this

What a scalp for the young Chinese kid, beat the rank 2 and defending world champ in a long match format on a TV table
