Snooker's started

[Lady Hawk]

Its that time of year again, to watch pretty balls being wacked around a table with a big stick.
I love the game and can watch it for hours.
My family think im a sado....any fans out there?

[Troubled]

Apparently not.

Thought they did show the James Wattana 1st round match on ubc.

Personally I would much rather watch a couple of pretty bar girls play

[machangezi]

I love watching snooker and can watch for hours like yourself Changmai. My favourite has always been Ronnie O' Sullivan

[ChiangMai noon]

Thjis one needs to be moved out of the sports section.

[machangezi]

ARe you stalking me CMN?

[Mhz]

Cant play the way i used to play be4 cos of lack of practice.

[Lady Hawk]

At last .hi macha..me to ronnies great just watched jimmy white,against grey,felt so sorry for jimmy as he lost and now out,ebdon played and is a good player but theres something about him i cant take to.
Cant believe ronnie can play,left or right handed,the guys pretty cool.

Yeah Ronnie's cool but it was way too embarassing when he get caught racing naked with a gorgeous bird on Stratford high street doing 60 on 40 limit zone.

Anyway are you in Thailand? Is UBC giving a live coverage?

How's Mark Williams, Matthew Steven and Mr. Hingis doing?

Ronnie had his draw with Dave Harold?

Jimmy's a bit old for the game IMO. Steve and Jimmy should announce their retirement before getting thier arses kicked by new players.

[ChiangMai noon]

Moved to jokes and funny stories.

[machangezi]

^ LOL! What's so funny mate?

[Lady Hawk]

Hi macha no im not in thailand im in the uk.so no problem for me.
ronnie v harold ...great game 10-4 to ronnie admitedly he had a fluke which helped him a lot but it was amazing he hit a red to hard it bounced out of the pocket ,the white spun back,hit another red sending it close to the pocket,then the white kinda double kissed it sending the red in.
He coudlnt believe it himself.

mattew stevens v joe swail 10-5.
alan mc manus v marco fu (marco fu from hong kong not seeded).
3-10 impressive game .

stephen hendry v nigel bond 9-10.
all depended on the black three shots each i think it was,nigel bond just scrapped through.


If you go to ,sorry dont know how to do a link,but it should be on a bbc site,maybe bbc/snooker i will check it out for you.

[machangezi]

Thanks for the update Changmai. Marko Fu is unbelievable, I must say. The guys showing some nice games for the last few years and I can see him rising to top 5 in near future.

So Stephen Hendry's out!

[ChiangMai noon]

All further correspondance to be carried out between macha and changmai by PM.

[machangezi]

The way you want it sir just don't forget the piccies.

*By the way you got a top Welsh player out there, Mark Williams.*

[ChiangMai noon]

Mathew Stevens has far more about him, he seems to perform extremely well in the long (best of 19 matches) a bit poo in the short version, 3 times losing finalist, by a hair.....but what would I know..silly bloody game.

[machangezi]

Ah you know a lot about the game and the players, don't ya mate?

*you smart little devil you*

[bkkmadness]

I love snooker, great game to kick back and watch. I like playing pool myself, and watching it too, but when you see the accuracy of some of those snooker players its unbelievable. Different class of game totally.

I met Jimmy a couple of years ago in Bangkok when he was out here playing some toiurnament. I think he wanted me to score him some charlie actually. Stephen Hendry was a bit an offish nob though, and Wattana didnt look too buzzing when we tried to order some Changs from him.
