The pair were good friends and natural crowd-pleasers. It had already been a great match when White, leading 5-3, had first dig at a red in the ninth frame, missed, and Stevens got in. On 64 – all blacks – he took the cue ball in and out of baulk, missing everything to land nicely on the black again, after which he held his nerve if not perfect position. There was a scare when he cannoned into the pink off the 15th black, but he still landed on the yellow. He needed the rest to pot it, left the wrong angle for the green and had to take the cue ball around the angles for the brown. Even then, he finished wrong side to be ideal on the blue and ended up having to run the cue ball off the baulk cushion the length of the table to land on the black, a slight cut-back which Stevens sank to complete a maximum break.
As John Virgo would say , "Where's the pink ball gone to Dave ! "
:wink::grin:
Anyway Kirks 147 @ The Masters is one of my favourite maximums :
