5-5 Jimmy White-Mark Williams in the Masters 1/4 finals. Come on Jimmy!

I'm just used to calling him Jimmy White

Apparently he changed his name or something (?) to Jimmy or James Brown because of a deal with HP Sauce

I wouldnt change my name no matter what money I was paid.

Shame Steve Davis is out but oh well

Stephen Hendry lost last night too.

Yeah, would of been nice, but I like Ronnie too.

Did you notice how the BBC commentators kept mispronouncing Ding's name? It should be Ding Jun H'way or something like that?

Not Ding Jun-WEE

Jimmy White lost to Ronnie yesterday.

I dont think he deserved to lose 6-1

I like Ronnie tho.

Oh well. I reckon he will beat John Higgins.

Ding Junhui is in the 1/2 final of the China Open in Beijing at the mo and thrashing Ken Doherty (Ireland) 4-0 so far

He needs 6 frames to go through to the final

i stopped watching snooker after Jimmy White got crap and didnt retire. I know he's still one of the best players in the world but he used to be a marvel to watch in his hey day. These days its all maths

Yeah I know what you mean, who does Jimmy play in his next match?
I'd like to see Steve Davis go through but he's 6-2 down to a young guy (Michael Holt) I think...
Did you see Mark Williams' 147? Woo-hoo!

Steve Davis beat Michael Holt 13-10 in round 2 but got his ass kicked by Shaun Murphy (sp?) in the 1/4 final and lost 13-4.

Oh well.

Ronnie lost to Ebdon

Congrats Peter.
I heard Ebdon had some awful time wasting tactics (he would take almost 5 mins to take a shot at 1 point) but Ronnie was courteous and said he didnt blame the tactics for the loss (I think).
