Away from the sensible action at the Crucible on Tuesday, there was a worrying amount of excitement caused by a table considerably smaller than 12×6, with the introduction of a mini-pool table next to the fridge here in the media room.
With regular MC Rob Walker in particular taking a liking to the table, the likes of Ding Junhui and Mark Allen have also participated in what appears to have become a ‘pot as many balls in a minute as you can’ challenge, much to the amusement of bloggers such as myself looking for something a little unusual.
Probably the most amusing moment came as Ding felt it necessary to apologise for any flukes, whilst Allen was lightning around the table, clearly using his visit as practice for next season’s Shoot Out.
