Gives me hope, Jimmy got the nerves again, when he should only be playing his own game & wiping the floor with Hendry tonight.

Yeah, it’s clear White is better, some of Hendry’s missed pots have been dreadful. I think he’s holding his own in the safety, though, and if White can’t break build then he’s got a chance.

Currently 41-19 and back to safety.

To much scrappy stuff to recount, but Hendry now needs a snooker with just blue, pink and black left.

Hendry got the snooker, it’s all on the black!

Edit - And he takes it. 2-1 to the Scot.

Hendry might be warming up. Two breaks of 30+ and the 4th frame is in the bag. 3-1.

After mid session we’re back to really scrappy stuff. It’s 31-3 to Hendry in frame 5 after 20 minutes or so.

Beginning to wonder if I can stay up to the end of this.

Stayed scrappy but Hendry toughed it out, 60-odd to 30-odd. 4-1.

Not again!

When I was playing Jimmy White in those finals, I could tell when he was under pressure.

Stephen Hendry

Wow, a proper frame. White made a long red then a 62 break, but he missed a red (the colour of which would have sealed it), then Hendry stepped up and made a 66 clearance to take it. 5-1.

Almost proper snooker. Jimmy made a decent break, then defended it a bit laboriously but ultimately wrapped it all up with the colours to spare. 5-2.

More scrappy nonsense, including a terrible miscuing and a long safety battle on the pink. But Jimmy sneaked it, so 5-3.

Hendry on a nice break here? 0-27

He broke down, but he’s in again, 41-0.

Though he messed up going in to the reds, so played safe.

I’m listening to two journeymen on YT giving them pelters for the bad play… And now comments on just how good the next round opponents will be + there 5 matches after this.

Basically the top 64 are sold. :grin:

Hendry’s on again, Xu Si is standing in the way of the Crucible itself. He’s already one frame up and has a 49-0 lead in the second!

This guy is supposed to be all right too… :+1: Nice.

Football is on atm, bayern and PSG so may not see it… Going to checkout the YT channel I might know that streams it.

Well, I might be sticking the curling on in a bit. All about priorities.
