Ronnie doing Ronnie Things - Highest Break Ever

I was talking with someone who's played on tournament tables in a number of countries. He says they all use the official template, but some places push it firmly into the pocket, and some don't push it firmly at all. In each case the pocket is tighter or looser.

That's relevant. I get that they need to avoid the kennel club effect but Ronnie and buckets is highly incongruous. There should be an invitational master series with tighter stuff; weed out the sloppy.

16-red clearances. I suppose it would be possible to have a 16-red 148 by missing the last black.

yea, but they're also weird given that the prerequisite is an early frame foul from the opponent that renders a free ball.

ronnie is under pressure now. down 4-5 against a very lucky thepchaya uh-nooh (i just assumed he would lose his semi, apparently he didn't). 5 racks in a row for the thai.
 
Uh-oh, it's Uh-nooh in the lead. Oh, man, I woke up several times and grabbed my iPhone for the sole reason to check out the score on snooker.org. I then went back to sleep. I'll be watching Session 2 at 7:30 a.m. EDT.
 
both are in dead stroke now. also probably the least amount of safeties i've seen in a snooker final. hendry would love this
 
Un-nooh shoots fast and furious and raced to the finish line in record time. What a great win! I'm bummed out that Ronnie got so close and lost. But it will only hurt a little bit, I guess. :)

yea i don't think ronnie takes that loss bad. literally nothing he could do there, and it was over in no time

thepchaya always had promise, but unfulfilled. he has slowed down a second or two but still plays very fast

There's a reason why they call him "F1." He takes off to the finish line like he's in a NASCAR race.
