froggg Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Ronnie O'sullivan asks before potting a ball in the final frame, how much for a 147? £10000 is the answer, Ronnie refuses to make the 147, taking a pink rather than the black and making a 146, when interviewed later he stated that £10000 wasn't enough for a 147, shocking decision for me, his fans pay a lot of money to see him.

davenportram Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 shocking on one front but his fans know he only plays for the money. Pus the prize money now rolls over to the next tournament and gets larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed they do. And even when he gets a 147 he sees only a tiny fraction of that money. That's the whole basis of his argument. 10k is a lot, but they're ripping off their own players because it should be a lot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Surprising if you've seen his tweets recently as well, been going mental trying to out some guy that conned him out of 125k.....then again this is Ronnie, doesn't surprise me at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CumbrianRam Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 In the old days it was 147k for one or an sports car because they were pretty rare, now they are more common, the prize money goes down. If it was still 147k the sports would go bust unless they get a big sponsor. It does roll over every tournement there isn't one, would be funny though it rolled on a bit and he missed the last black for it This a pretty good representation http://cuetracker.net/Statistics/Other/Decade-Comparisons/Centuries-Maximums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggg Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 Another incredible performance by Ronnie last night, thought I'd only see a couple of frames before leaving for work, but a 4-0 demolitition happened in a matter of minutes, who will beat him on this form?

storm Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Congrats on your winning bet there, @froggg I thought that Barry Hearn made some interesting comments recently about Ronnie when he said that he was 'nearly bigger than snooker'. They say that only one person should and can't be bigger than the sport but if you were to take Ronnie out of the game, I feel that the once great sport of snooker would be under threat. Ronnie was bang on when he said that the publicity he gave the recent tournament, albeit negative, was good for the sport as had he not given the Welsh Open that publicity, nobody would have been aware that the tournament was going on. An absolute genius and vital to the game whatever you may think of the man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
