At the next, first chance Selby

xyzzzz__, Saturday, 29 April 2023 23:33 (one year ago) link

Selby on a 60 break. Tough bastard.

xyzzzz__, Saturday, 29 April 2023 23:39 (one year ago) link

Brecel has talked about being 'bored' of longer matchplay but I assume that's bcz he couldn't get past the 1st round.

I'd make him a slight favourite as I don't think Selby is in really great scoring form, and he has always scored heavy to win his world titles.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 11:23 (one year ago) link

Brecel has never beaten Selby in three matches.

Usually I'd prefer a tight encounter but that would favour Selby, so Brecel to drub this guy as my hope.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 11:25 (one year ago) link

maybe, just maybe

Please

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 14:34 (one year ago) link

A frame off one visit from Selby. That's the heavy scoring he needs.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 18:26 (one year ago) link

and Brecel replies with a sick, fluid 99

contrapuntal aversion (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 30 April 2023 18:41 (one year ago) link

Selby has won the mini-session 3-1 there. He is definitely scoring heavier now and taking his chances.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 19:25 (one year ago) link

Brecel made an incredible 70 break. Just some beautiful shots to somehow keep that going.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 19:57 (one year ago) link

Amazing break from Brecel. The power he gets on the cue ball is astonishing.

Also, he really reminds me of Joe Cole.

Stars of the Lidl (Chinaski), Sunday, 30 April 2023 20:12 (one year ago) link

Follows with a beautiful 67. Just awesome.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 20:20 (one year ago) link

That red from Brecel was insane! Is this how you bully your opponent on the snooker table?

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 20:28 (one year ago) link

But Selby gets the next opportunity. It's kinda regulation, except him to get it

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 20:34 (one year ago) link

Selby has won the next too, on a 147..

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 20:50 (one year ago) link

The final red is stuck to the cushion so..

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 20:52 (one year ago) link

He's going to do it lol

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 20:53 (one year ago) link

That's incredible

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 20:55 (one year ago) link

absolutely incredible

set my anxiety off something rotten ffs

contrapuntal aversion (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 30 April 2023 20:55 (one year ago) link

Insane

Stars of the Lidl (Chinaski), Sunday, 30 April 2023 20:56 (one year ago) link

Brecel made a 48. Broke down..

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 21:03 (one year ago) link

This could be huge now, Selby in after a safety battle.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 21:09 (one year ago) link

What a clearance this is so far..

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 21:13 (one year ago) link

Excellent safety from Selby. Has another chance

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 21:15 (one year ago) link

9-8. Selby is favourite I'd say. He is scoring heavy enough. Should have the experience to see Brecel off.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 30 April 2023 21:21 (one year ago) link

that is a fucking unbelievable break

imago, Monday, 1 May 2023 12:59 (one year ago) link

Brecel has won the first three frames with some ruthless snooker.

Selby was in at the last but he broke down on 35. Brecel made a great century.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 May 2023 12:59 (one year ago) link

And one more after. If Brecel closes this off then this is the session.

13-8

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 May 2023 13:10 (one year ago) link

This is wild.

Eyeball Kicks, Monday, 1 May 2023 13:12 (one year ago) link

mic drop

imago, Monday, 1 May 2023 13:12 (one year ago) link

Woah. I think Virgo just shat himself live on air.

Stars of the Lidl (Chinaski), Monday, 1 May 2023 13:12 (one year ago) link

that doesn't sound like the kind of follow through viewers will be wanting to see

calzino, Monday, 1 May 2023 13:19 (one year ago) link

yeah should have potted that particular brown

Covfefe and TV (ken c), Monday, 1 May 2023 13:21 (one year ago) link

Selby should get back to this. Can't believe he won't.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 May 2023 13:29 (one year ago) link

need to do some mind games

Covfefe and TV (ken c), Monday, 1 May 2023 13:30 (one year ago) link

I'm missing all the action, prefer when it's on during working hours!

ledge, Monday, 1 May 2023 13:35 (one year ago) link

No mind games from Selby needed. Eventually wins the frame after a 63 break, which included a great red to the middle. 13-9.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 May 2023 13:57 (one year ago) link

now selby's safety shots are off

Covfefe and TV (ken c), Monday, 1 May 2023 14:24 (one year ago) link

on enough though

Covfefe and TV (ken c), Monday, 1 May 2023 14:31 (one year ago) link

and brecel's pots are off

Covfefe and TV (ken c), Monday, 1 May 2023 14:32 (one year ago) link

He eventually grinds it out. Brecel began with a 41 break and didn't convert it. 13-10

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 May 2023 14:33 (one year ago) link

Beautiful long red from Brecel. And then some shots to keep the break going when he needed to.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 May 2023 14:45 (one year ago) link

Another century

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 May 2023 14:46 (one year ago) link

Lots of errors from both of them at the last

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 May 2023 14:56 (one year ago) link

What a masterful clearance Brecel

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 May 2023 15:08 (one year ago) link

15-10...just in awe at sown of these shots.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 1 May 2023 15:09 (one year ago) link

been at work so haven't watched, but what mental strength from Brecel to come out and do this after being pegged back last night

contrapuntal aversion (Noodle Vague), Monday, 1 May 2023 15:31 (one year ago) link

he must prevail. three measly frames. don't give him a sniff

imago, Monday, 1 May 2023 15:32 (one year ago) link

Excellent response from Selby after another excellent break by Brecel. He had to make it with balk colours at the beginning.

Two frames shared.
