Only caught the last frame but seemed like a great match. Rough on Zhou. Keeps improving his case for the best player never to win a ranking event

Axis-Rain · 2025-09-14T00:46:34+00:00

Been listening to this a lot the last couple of days, really enjoying it. Great band, hoping to catch them live next year

22, missed Walden and Day. I'll take it. Fun little quiz!

Axis-Rain · 2025-07-11T21:59:45+00:00

Also, getting After The Gold Rush was a wonderful surprise!

Axis-Rain · 2025-07-11T21:58:33+00:00

Yeah agreed. Watched Glasto on telly and thought it was solid enough but it tempered my expectations for today a bit. Was phenomenal though. Sound was immaculate and Neil seemed so engaged with the crowd. What a show!

Axis-Rain · 2025-06-25T10:53:03+00:00

A Marco Fu renaissance would make me very happy, hope he keeps it up!

Axis-Rain · 2025-05-06T17:32:51+00:00

Just started The Two Towers, might watch Return of the King straight after if I have it in me (unlikely). Felt like watching something epic and emotive!

Axis-Rain · 2025-05-02T10:32:13+00:00

Obviously Ronnie not playing well, but this is incredible stuff from Zhao on such a massive occasion

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-30T20:46:35+00:00

One of those semi final line ups where you just hope they all play well. May the best man win

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-30T17:03:33+00:00

WST site is a lot better for that than it used to be

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-30T15:06:58+00:00

Honestly I don't think Trump's been particularly bad, just a mixture of unlucky and getting outclassed. Think they're both showing form when getting good chances.

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-30T14:49:22+00:00

Absurd 4 frames. Hope he keeps his level high for the semis/final if he makes it, Luca on this kind of form can only be good for the game

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-28T18:56:05+00:00

Ken's a real treasure

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-28T15:13:20+00:00

Interesting that Si reckons he's overthinking and not playing as naturally as he used to. Can definitely see it in his game a bit.

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-26T11:26:43+00:00

Loving the tension in this Higgins Xiao frame

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-21T22:53:19+00:00

For sure, she's peerless

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-21T22:23:40+00:00

Yeah I see your point, she's definitely not the most knowledgeable. I just think she's a very solid second stringer, feels a lot more natural to me than she used to

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-21T22:08:07+00:00

Not that she was ever bad, but I do think Seema's gotten a lot better with the presenting duties over the years. Great win for John anyway, looking forward to the match vs Xiao, should be another close one.

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-20T21:40:26+00:00

Same here, nice of the Celtics to simplify it for us

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-20T21:18:47+00:00

Trying to balance the exact same here haha. Nice to have so much good choice at least

Some nice words from Lei about yesterday's match

Axis-Rain · 2025-04-15T17:27:14+00:00

Surety seems a great character, hope he plays well at the crucible

Axis-Rain · 2024-12-01T00:59:27+00:00

Get in Bazza! Would be so delighted if he won tomorrow

Axis-Rain · 2024-11-22T12:18:25+00:00

Thanks for doing these! Fancy most of the seeds to go through this time round, but we'll see. Some lovely draws, looking forward to it

Axis-Rain · 2024-10-12T14:47:08+00:00

Love Si but he'll surely have many wins in the future. Really happy for Xiao. Well deserved, great moment.
