Haha, Maguire has just done a no 2 on his j-lo from a great height! 9-0 down!

watched the 147 by ronnie on my break at work, unreal, or as jonh parrot said 'thats the best anyone can ever play the game' lol

Just watched it, absolutely amazing.

Heres the link for anyone who hasn't seen it:

jonh parrot said after the first red went in and he saw position on of balls, he said 'maximum' lol of course

Dennis Taylor called it after first black on live commentary also.

what a fantastic break!!!, i was watching it and i was amazed, i have to agree wit enis taylor, the pot on the back to slpi he red tight to the pink was the best positional shot i've ever seen!

There was another shot where he was practically straight and had to force an angle to get back down for black was also awesome.

Having to force it with a bit of side into a narrow middle, one of the easiest shots to get wrong.

can anybody give me a link to watch it cause the link quick_pot gave won't leave me watch cause i'm in ireland

I can go one better

Foreign commentary tho.

Carter got a 147 as well! Bet O'Sullivan is an angry man now that he needs to share the prize. Only cost him £78,500

i'd still take it for bout 10 mins work lol

you don't share the £147,000 do you?, i thought yo u get that anyway, you just share the £10,000

As far as I am aware the £147,000 has to be shared as well.

Yep it cost O'Sullivan £78,500, nice dipping of the pocket Carter! rumour has it that O'Sullivan was gonna lay off some of his winnings to cover the chances of another 147 just incase. Don't know what price he'd have got at William Hill but even say 30k at 5/2 or so would have covered the loss!

It's standard practise to cover it with a bookie if you make a 147, in case of such occurrences.

Come on Carter

I think we know who's going to win it now...

Yeah it's not been a good Final.

Woooooo roonie!!!!

deserved it for how he played in his semi, both werent at their best in final, but your playing for a alot so its bound to come into play. Why cant ronnine have his head screwed on every year he would win it every year without doubt.
