Snooker Selby v Brecel

[Nobby_Barnes]

It's £40k for a 147 but Kyren had one in an earlier round so £20k each....

The winner of this match gets £500k
Runner Up £200k

It seems to be falling apart for Brecel, he needs to compose himself.

Did you manage to get to watch Stockton yesterday?

I didn't bother going over, I wasn't quite sure what was happening with regards to getting in. Sounds like I missed a good game.

My son knows a few lads who play for Stockton and normally goes over but he had people doing work in his house.

By all accounts they turned nearly a thousand people away from the gates.

I think that's just the way he plays the game - quite refreshing actually

Mark Selby is a fantastic player, doesn’t get the plaudits of the O’Sullivans or Higgins, but he’s right among the best ever, maybe not as natural as some others, but his bottle and ability to grind makes up for it. Invented “granite snooker”.

 

[Norman_Conquest]

There is no doubt Selby can play the game and his stats back up that statement. I just don't want to see Brecel drawn into the long game that Selby excels at and grinds his opponents down.

Brecel played some amazing stuff this afternoon. He's right on the edge though. Looking forward to tonight.

 

[Nobby_Barnes]

16-14 to Brecel but Selby is on a roll.....

Looking a bit dodgy for Brecel now, needs to get this next frame I think

Agreed, he was miles away with that last long pot in the last frame, Selby is doing what Selby does.....

Stars seem to be aligning for Selby with that fluke.

Could it be a 18:17 match?

 

[sherlock]

45 minutes since Brecel potted a ball!

 

[ForssAwakens]

Brecel goose looks to be cooked

 

[MVBoro]

Brecel looks like he can’t pot a ball atm. Needs a mental reset.

 

[Centralscrutinizer]

After the afternoon session I was half thinking this match would be over before the Leicester v Everton match

 

[Centralscrutinizer]

Brecels lack of patience is going to lose him this

 

[sherlock]

Huge moment this, if Brecel doesn’t make the most of this chance he’s done.
