Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5WODJYhGVU
The commentators mentioned that he had a 135 earlier in that match. Kinda tough on the opponent in a race to 4.
does this mean he has come back to earth and stopped all his tantrums and craziness I keep hearing about?
i went to get the link to post but had to stop to watch it.
then you beat me to posting it bob...:thumbup:
what can you say
ronnie is truly amazing
He's been fine for some time now. Ever read his bio? Pretty rough family life at times. He's been thru the ringer and came out swinging. He's definitely not boring like some of the snooker-bots tend to be.
the man knows how to kick too....:smile:
notice snooker tables dont have diamonds on them.......

In all the snooker matches I've watched I've never noticed that...
In other news... is it a rule or just a custom that they never leave chalk on the rails?
Well, its kinda like the BudLight ad, its off to the Pit of Misery if you do. Its a no-no. They all have their own. Usually Triangle green is chalk-of-choice.
Not exactly...he’s been moaning about the venue they’re playing at this week, the tour structure and plenty of other things. Worth following on twitter!
He complained about the smell of urine, wires all over everywhere and random people wandering in and out due to a lack of security. Those factors seem to have invigorated his game. In the video the venue looks fine but my computer doesn't have smell-o-vision yet.
I don't believe he has mentioned the numpties recently.
I spent some time with him for the History Channel program. He seemed easy to get along with for that time, but he wasn't in a competitive situation. I imagine his points all have merit and he is not shy about speaking up.
There is a rolling prize for maximums (I think it gets 5k pounds added per event) and a prize for high break of the event. There was maximum the day before by Thepchayia Un-Nooh, and at the time I think they said he had £17k coming. Ronnie is now due to get half of that.
Here is that other maximum: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vn1N1GNQHUQ
The World Championship used to offer £147,000 for a maximum, but between better play and lower sponsorship money, that was discontinued.
Leaving chalk on the rail is a pool thing. In civilized games like snooker and billiards players have their own chalk and we don't leave it on the rails.
I think most of his ‘moaning’ has some merit in all honesty! It doesn’t always come across well, but the points he makes (about the tour structure in particular) do make a lot of sense.
Also I think he realises the PR value sometimes ;-)
