Snooker

Post by jrgbfc » Sun Dec 06, 2020 9:31 pm

Surprised there isn't a thread on this already. Turned out to be a great final, looks like it's going down to the wire. Fancy Robertson now but hoping Trump can pull it off.

I normally do start the Darts and Snooker threads, but there are not normally many people interested.

Not much better than a nice chilled out Sunday evening in front of the TV watching a snooker final.

The best part of snooker for me is not the break building,but the game where it's very tight on the colours or somebody is needing the odd snooker near the end. Far more interesting than watching the big breaks. IMO .

Yep, like a game of chess.

Why is there no crowd there? It took me a while to realise the applause was fake, lol.

Has gone very cagey and tense. Agree with the commentators that it's really missing a crowd.

You think? I don't think this match has missed the crowd at all.

It's like the WC semi's all over again, I guess this shows how evenly matched this pair is.

Well done to Neil Robertson on his win.

Brilliant match, Trump looked exhausted at the end and he has to play another tournament,The Scottish Open today.
