      @@PaulAinsworth-nv4my Yes, I think that Williams played magnificantly against RO and it was a a rare case where the win was actually a win as opposed to RO losing for whatever reason Ronnie played well Mark played better. I think that match will open some other opponents` minds to the fact that , well hey, I could beat him too. I think, on a psychological level, Ronnie showed a little crack in his armor. It will be interesting to see how these upcoming matches play out. That said, I think a Williams v. O'Sullivan match that Ronnie will demolish him. One thing with Ronnie, you have to let him sleep. If ever the expression 'don't poke the bear' was appropriate it is with Ronnie. This is going to be an exciting few Weeks fo sho.
