Title: Singles League: Adam Robinson 1-3 Daniel Norton
Post by: Daniel on 11 February 2010
Frame 1:  Norton  70 (27) - 42  Robinson
Norton leading 53-42 going into the colours. Robinson left a great chance after missing the yellow and Norton cleared the colours (with a lucky cannon on the brown to help him along.

Frame 2:  Norton   53 - 39   Robinson
Tight scrappy one.  A good snooker was enough to shave it after Robinson was snookered on the last red and behind the black right in the corner.  3 free balls were the difference.

Frame 3:  Norton  32 - 75   Robinson
Robinson came back strongly with some excellent potting to clinch this frame.  Had Norton relaxed too soon???

Frame 4:  Norton  68 - 34   Robinson
No risks taken here by Norton. Just the odd 8 to 12 point breaks followed by tight safety.  Robinson got very few chances and was frustrated to lose the frame.

A long overdue win for me in this competition. PHEW!  Hard luck Adam, it was a bad time to play me really as I'm starting to turn it around, albeit with a lot of filthy tactics.

Thanks.  I'm trying my best with doing the back to basics approach and not just going for breaks.  The frame where I didn't Adam punished me with some great shots so lucky I did.

Any news on the meeting?

Are you OK to play at Spot On Sneinton on Thursday Jordan?

Sorry mate.  I haven't won a match at Pegasus since last summer!

I had a look at my results and had a chat with myself.  Before last summer I used to practice at Spot On and  was playing better then so...

Where do you think I played this match with Adam?
