Tournament in China. Highest break ever in a professional tournament. Had a free ball.

Take a bow, son.

He was incredible, makes you wonder why he hasn't had a better career. You can't live with that.

I remember thinking back in the day, could anyone beat Steve Davis? 

Manuel, as well as being an orange helmet.

Just watched the last frame clearance FMOB that wasn't bad for someone who "doesn't have the shots in his locker any more"

Just won his SF 6-5. Likely to play Trump in the final.

Btw, we should have a snooker icon?

In what way? Jimmy White loves him. If you mean the slowness of most of the players would have driven him crackers, you have a point

Great effort. Chuck Norris made a break of 156 just before he departed Planet Earth and now holds the record.

The debate has long been won and even Hendry admits it himself. The 8th just rounds it up nicely.

No one has broken the number of records he has and this is just another one added to the list of achievements.

Same. Just to put the him or Hendry stuff to bed once and for all.
Extraordinary man. He IS snooker.

I watched it live which was good.

The total max you can get is 155, he potted 2 pinks in the break. The final black was also very missable tight on the cushion.
