    I'm not a fan of either of the players in the final unfortunately, Selby's nickname is 'The Jester from Leicester' but I call him 'The Accountant' as his personality is as grey as his waistcoat and Ding is about as interesting as a plain tea towel.

    There's been some good safety play and it's close score wise but it's not been a great match so far in terms of quality.

    I'm a massive snooker fan and I play the game on a regular basis but I'd rather watch paint dry than watch these two.

    Been enjoying it, don't watch it much as a rule so makes a nice relaxing change.

    I think it has been a great final...Some century breaks and some unbelievable long tense frames..

    I cant. I can watch snooker maybe for an hour. Golf gets turned over within a second.

    What a night for Mark Selby though.

    Imagine winning the world championship at your sport the same hour that your football team wins the Premier league.

    I hope his missus put the icing on the cake for him.

    Bunch of liars on here like. You should be ashamed of yourselves. No amateur can pot 3 balls in a row.

    I have the dubious distinction of winning the Sandy Roundabout Snooker Cup in 1998.

    Sounds good until I admit that, not ever having played in it before, I had handicap start of +49 :emoticon-0136-giggl
