Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

You know, you can't react.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

You only have to react when it's your turn at the table.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

Otherwise, you know, the guy... And that's exactly what happened.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

You know, with Wu Yize, Sean played at one safety shot.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

He was in an awful spot.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

He left the tenth of a red for Wu Yize.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

He potted it and went on to make an incredible break in the last frame.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

And he never really got a chance.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

He sort of got a chance early on, but then sort of messed up position.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

But...

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

Yeah, and then it was all over, you know, and it's all over in a flash.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

But that's the tough part about the game and sort of the beauty about it in a sort of adverse way.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

there's a bit of timing involved and that's fine until the shit hits the fan and then timing is much harder and actually a more mechanical one is a bit better are there certain cue actions that you think yeah that's beautiful but show me that at 16 all in a world final we'll see yeah well I mean his cue action was incredible I mean Morphy's cue action is probably the best in the game you know because he's so fluent the way he strikes the ball and how he sort of how he can get through you know that wonderful flowing sort of

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

technique that he has, but we use not the same flowing technique, bit more mechanical, technical, but still lovely and straight, and that's the most important thing, getting through the ball straight.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

Once you have a technique like that, it's obviously much better under pressure because you just rely on that technique, and that's all you should be thinking about is just hitting that ball as straight as you can, and he did it wonderfully well.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

Yeah.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

Oh, no, no.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

I think the brakes that they produced, you know, the framing and brakes, one visits, you know, the long potting.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

which was just incredible.

Indo Sport
Ken Doherty | Practicing with Ronnie, Mark Allen's miss & the Chinese takeover

I think it's been one of the best championships that we've had for quite a long time, if not ever, you know, in terms of we've had the longest frame.
