@RIT1973 @TSnooker102 🤣🤣🤣 , send him some tips on long potting if you have any

@TSnooker102 I've forwarded all this to Xintong's email address to help him break the curse.

Can't guarantee this will help anyone, but I'll just list here the things I've learned to be the three most important parts of the snooker technique (for me at least). I won't get into aiming, just the parts that affect your cueing. 1/x

@MunrajPal He does hate him , he said that he is really good at potting balls ...during the Higgins match lol

McManus raging that Xintong wins another 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 #TourChampionship

@TSnooker102 Ronnie takes it this year , then Zhao wins 9 to beat his record.

@askbob147 Can't see it

Zhao has a real chance to become the best player ever. Can't see him becoming the greatest, but possible the best.

@TSnooker102 This is moose ?

Moose Wellington.

@TSnooker102 10-2 Zhao , Higgins will be out of stamina by tomorrow

I think Trump v Robbo might go to a decider. Higgins will school Zhao like never seen before.

@TSnooker102 Zhao will win this , its like shelling peas for him.

Trump v Robertson and Selby v Zhao is some semi final line up.

@TSnooker102 @timmer_be I am also seeing results from that tip you shared from Robo , standing far far away and walking into the shot. Does help.

@askbob147 @timmer_be I made 106 in practise once, but it's the only time I got past 70.

This is typical for me. A lot of hard work and good pots to keep the break alive only to then miss the easiest pot in the break.

@TSnooker102 @timmer_be That is incredible actually.....

@thesnookerhall @nr147 That is cool - Dan. He is indeed. Superb stuff @nr147 .

That is why @nr147 is so dangerous. He wasn’t at his supreme best today, but he can be a “matchplay monster” in close matches. Experience, composure, technique and tactics combine to make an elite performer. And yes, I am trying to coin “matchplay monster” as a #snooker term 😁

@TSnooker102 @timmer_be Possible but be patient , you seem to have talent. Still young , soon enough you will make tons, if you haven't already. Once you make one , then 80s and 90s come easily.

@askbob147 @timmer_be I played for several reds almost every shot and didn't play for black because the pot would have been too difficult.

@TSnooker102 @timmer_be you could have played for multiple reds or gone down for the black a few times but you decided to play baulk colours.

@timmer_be @askbob147 Different in what way?

@TheGreenBaize Hendry , him , Mathew is also good.

Others seem to get more praise, but I think Joe Perry is by far the best player turned commentator of the last decade.#snooker

@Martynw34 Zhao Xintong will take it by a mile

Whatever way you look at it this years World Snooker Championship at Crucible in a couple of weeks time is the most open i can ever remember , you could probably make a good case for at least 10-12 players #tourchampionshipsnooker

@colwright3 @cruciblecrush 🤣🤣🤣🤣 , spot on.

@cruciblecrush He’s the James Corden of snooker

Oh my God I just hate Murphy so much

@RobJF24 Feel bad for Papa Murph but Judd did well...got some pressure balls in the end.

Gutted for the Magician, but we shall see you in Sheffield, Shaun 🫡 Tense stuff all round, but Judd did well to get over the line. Knowing this sport, it could easily be the first of god knows how many deciding-frame victories for the world number one now. #TourChampionship

@djk29_ Zhao will be 9 times world champion , Ronnie will win 8.

ZHAO XINTONG 5 (19) 2 CHRIS WAKELIN 16th century of the 2026 #TourChampionship Second century of the match from Zhao after a clearance of 120 guarantees him a lead overnight! Big last frame coming up of the opening session!

@blue_letterrr He is better now , still can't be arsed about watching him play tho.

i love selbs so much but sometimes i think of his six minute shot and get second hand embarrassment so bad 😭

@TSnooker102 Played horrible , gave up.

Embarassing loss for Wu
