O'Sullivan's 147 2023 UK Championship Snooker

Matthew said to Rick so Maxwell gets frame six underway playing for pride at the moment you would think can he get a frame on the scoreboard and avoid the white Rush just over one hour and 22 minutes that's all we've been playing unfortunately and it has to be said that there's only one player out there at the moment that's Ronnie O'Sullivan yeah I think there's a place to Old players playing against Ronnie you know you get seem to get plenty chances in the first two or three frames but as soon as you don't take them you just gets stronger and stronger he's the best front runner in the game at the moment thank you well if he's covered uh path back to Port down the right hand side of the table in the spot to bother here Matt the left-hand side of the table very congested so he's going to come off the side cushion he can hit Reds but he doesn't feel he's going to get it safe so I'll just roll into the side of the cluster kind of be careful he doesn't slide by them as he left onto the middle well when he calls [Applause] I'm lucky to leave that you could say so Ronnie is off and running again eight and this time there are no Reds in the other half of the table 16. 17. a little bit straighter on the black than we would have liked but you've seen because there's a red available to the right middle they must be the way he's played that 24. 25 yeah we're on the block now we always need a bit of load when you go into the cluster and he's okay the red just below the pink will go to the left middle 32 great chance now 33. yeah this is the more orthodox chance well apart from the red and left cushion you couldn't really place them any better he has any major stuff the angle on that we're Justified the pink to the right middle if he's got the angle he could come back up and back off this one oh he's not much of an angle he's got a force it he's got to force it over 41. now on the normal circumstance you say we'll play the pink but I think he's got maximum in mind 48. yeah there's only one thing happening here apart from making a match winning 49 as he's going for a maximum a bit disheartening when you're his opponent when you see him refuse the easy pink for the difficult black there but you just have to sit there and appreciate what he's doing 56 no maybe Matt let's have his last shot in this match we're running a little bit of work to do here just asking younger house to clean the Reds foreign object just catching his eye you've got to stun this cue ball in between the pink and that little cluster of four that's right I play for the black in the same pocket as the red thank you played it nicely 57. one of the Moon pot so he didn't have to play any cannons into them and I think his he pots one he releases another 64. 65. that's black and one more red and the frame's over and the match 72 so all eyes now 73 can he make the maximum and normally with a right-handed player you would say the red and the left cushions awkward but I know Ronnie's no problem for him to play with his left hand so eight is not really any difficulty in this break this is his concentration don't play any careless shots you can't see another outcome here yeah that red near the right middle sort of worries you a little bit because in trying to get on that before but you just gotta get past we're all crossing our fingers so this time he's trying to get on that red needs to run he's finished on it that was the awesome yeah he's got a nice time [Applause] 89 everybody eyes on Ronnie at the moment 96 point and a maximum that you just don't notice anything else going on around you 97 audience opponents other tables cameras nothing you're just in your own bubble here 104. 105. standing on the black monster not ideal in the black John straighter in this black to get close to the red 112th Street the cue ball is going to be quite close to the cushion here everybody stop now watching this is a little Shake of the head is he absolutely perfect he's got to make the angle he's got this 120. absolutely and then every pot gets a big round of applause said it before this is the biggest buzz you can get plain snooker making a 147. [Applause] all right 129. just got to judge the pace now on and off the top cushion oh he's played for the pink in the middle is he gonna bring my PS that was a Heart Stopper and he's already punch in the air he's not possible [Applause] no problem
