I root for Barry Hawkins because he looks like a thug straight out of a Looney Tunes cartoon from 60 years ago crossed with Edward G. Robinson. I also growl his name as "Master Baaary 'Orkins" like I'm Long John Silver. Yes, I'm actually 10 years old - but I love Snooker.

That was a hell of a shot by Liang to pot that red off the black in the corner. My man Master 'Orkins (arr, matey) has polished off Zhang Anda 10-5, finishing off with a break of 141 (highest so far). Next up is Ronnie O'Sullivan, which should be a pretty good match.

O'Sullivan races away with a big break, then misses an easy shot and lets Hawking back in. Hawkins plods along, picks up O'Sullivan's scraps, and wins the frame. It's pretty good to watch.

Babby Sathanas posted:Ronnie McDonald is gonna tire himself out I reckon, he can't have that many grams of coke to keep him going. I can see it tying up quickly and Master Barry 'Orkins will finish up cleanly and easily. Avast, me hearties! Surely that scurvy dog O'Sullivan has got the black spot now. Master 'Orkins be makin' him walk the plank. We be takin' the Jolly Roger to the Spanish Main, now!

Master 'Orkins is understandably flat after his match against O'Sullivan. It was a good run, Barry. Strike the colors and man the rowboats.

Well, shiver me timbers, ol' Master 'Orkins has made a match of this. From 9-1 to 10-7 is pretty drat impressive. Still a long way to go, but it's no embarrassment from here however it goes.

Well, that was an odd frame. A bit of Alphonse and Gaston, there.

This 15th frame has been absolutely nuts. The strategic positional play is the best part of snooker.
