For the modern shot makers it is not that big of a problem if they miss the position by a few centimeters, they will still make the next shot as long they can see the potting angel.
If you overrun a position in pool, there is a bigger chance to snooker yourself, because of the smaller table.

Position in pool is much less important. That's why it's so common for you to see players sacrifice getting closer to their next ball, and just taking the longer shot. Whereas in snooker, you will often see players passing up slightly tougher shots if they get out of line in favor of playing safe.

As to your last point, how often do you actually see players snooker themselves playing 9 ball?
 
Ronnie says he's not going after records and not interested but secretly I think he wants to be the oldest world champion as well as beating Hendry's 7 titles

selby got selbyed. ran into another grinder, and a clutch player at that. hats off to the kid.

williams is the polar opposite of selby, all offense. will bingtao try to grind him down or step up his scoring game?

Yan can switch gears and play a nice attacking and flowing game.
So, playing Mark Williams will be a feast for the eyes.

At the end of this tournament Ronnie is going to have his 7th world championship and the #1 ranking which is fitting since he is the best snooker player in history and is currently the best all things considered.

Yep, its one of the worst kept secrets.. For years, he tries to brush it off..
But, when he breaks a decent record in interviews he says how happy he is and that he wants to leave a legacy.
The important thing he has learned the last few years is the mind games, he can block things out now so they don't add pressure.
He has never been so stable and happy, and still is a competitor with hunger.
Dangerous combination for his opponents.

Rocket for #7.
 
Nice comeback by Kyren to tie things up. Also a bit of sportsmanship when he called a double hit on himself that nobody else saw.

Yes, very enjoyable match to this point. Once can sense that Wilson and Bingham respect and like each other. They definitely shared a few smiles and chuckles. The momentum in this match has shifted, but no result would surprise me here.

Sadly, I've never seen the potting angel, but I hear she is a sight to behold.
