FYI. The World Snooker Championship starts tomorrow at the famed Crucible Theatre in Sheffield. I'm sure with a bit snooping around one could find a half decent stream.

They're [BBC] showing it live from 21 April to 7 May Times: Sessions at 1000, 1430 & 1900 BST and some highlights around midnight. If it's anything like last years competition it'll be a cracker. :thumbup:

I do miss Snooker on the box from back in the day!!! .. call me naive, but I never in a million years thought it would be such a non event on Canadian TV (especially as mentioned above, those famous Canadian players from way back when!)

Most Canadians just have different ways to misspend their youth.

The Chinese seem to have fallen in love with snooker with five of them getting through qualifying in the main draw. I think its a very healthy thing for the sport. :thumbup:

Well that's it. Well done Ronnie O'Sullivan. :thumbup:

I watched it live, what a fantastic player he (Ronnie) is. I was searching for his fastest 147 on youtube and stumbled upon this instead. Pure genius. Skip to 2m 15 secs

Have you ever seen anything like that in your life! Says Virgo at the end.

Brilliant.

Not as good as the 5 minute one but still brilliant.
