Just catching up. Vafei trying to get in Ronnie’s head by smashing the pack up and giving the frame away. Brilliant.

He was lucky to get to 6-2.

Yeah same. Li was throwing in some properly beautiful pots too. Super impressive.

Not happening 🙁

Luca is playing so good in this match. Watched all of it so far. Punishing everything.

11-9 is pretty tight though and Williams has made plenty of comebacks.

Mark hit two shots there that gave me a lot of hope.

The one just off the cushion the full length of the table was especially insane. Thats like a full 10 feet away from the pocket and drifts it on the absolute perfect line. Can’t touch the near jaw or the cushion at any point and just nailed it.

Also Luca finally missed too, which helps. It showed his pot success was 97% and then he missed. Thanks BBC.

97% is phenomenal. I don’t remember seeing that high a pot percentage over a long match.

Ah that was just for those 4 frames i think but it must be super high for the match. He’s been an absolute aimbot.

Great pot on the brown from Wiliiams, wasn’t sure he’d go for that. Oh broke down soon after sadly.

He’s fully found another level and Luca is sweating.

Robertson vs. Jones is an interesting choice on the red button. Williams has won it multiple times, why doesn’t he take priority. Would rather watch it on a bigger screen.

It’s on BBC4!

Luca has just done the break of the match. Black, pink and blue tied up. Never in position. Mopped it all up. Amazing.

If he plays like that in 3 more matches he’s world champion and it won’t matter who he’s playing.

Thanks! Wouldn’t have guessed it was on BBC 4. Agreed, he reminds me of Lisowski. On peak form he’s very very hard to beat.

Jak Jones beating Neil Robertson is surprising. Jak Jones on a break to make it 11-6 which will be very very hard to come back from.

Hilarious. I missed it because I’ve been out all day. Was Vafaei that bad or was Ronnie in soul destruction mode? I’m guessing both.

Wtf was all that laughing from Vafaei about in the end? Brave face?

Ronnie was really good, had a pot percentage of over 90% but Vafei wasn’t good at all. From what I saw he had plenty of chances he didn’t take advantage of. Ronnie broke down plenty of times during a break but Vafei’s head was gone. I think he was just laughing at himself at the end and feeling embarassed. He realised how much he had fucked up by playing mind games. Fair play to Ronnie for his sportsmanship at the end when putting his arm round him and having a chat.

Of course the guy who I have money on is going to blow a 9 frame lead (or whatever it was).
