There was an extremely bizarre break off from Hossein Vafaei in the second frame that left those in The Crucible stunned. Ronnie O’Sullivan managed to take control of the frame and won it in style, taking the score to 2-0.

All over , Ronnie is a complete class act,,showed respect to vafaei ,even after all the crap vafaei came out with . And that’s how you do that. !
"It's a ballzy play, Fred. Lets see how it works out…"
Lost 13-2. 😂
Vafaei says he’s gonna shut him up on table and Ronnie shuts him up vafaei his very jealous of Ronnie always slagging him off vafaei is a joke 😂😂😂😂
Ahh the old Quentin Hann “I’ve lost my head” break.
Some of Ronnie's face expressions reminisce of Mr Bean's 😬
13-2, nuff said.
Absolute clown,smash him up Ronnie.
Yes Ronnie- team, London. Fuck off Ali!
Sometimes u can’t always buy, corrupt, influence, bow, befuddle, or manipulate everything u desire. Team Rocket. Real legends no made up saviors Team UK. 👌🫡👍
Another disrespectful muzza
People dont respect the power of vafi….if measured that breakoff would have broken a record…nobody sees that in the comments, its just tactics and touch but vafi is a power player.
42 carat Numpty
Was there a large 147 bet placed B4?
Fool got slaughtered 😂😂😂
Check with the bookmakers.
Love Ronnies continual drive and love of the game. Id have retired years ago lol
Nothing wrong that break. 5 pints in I do exactly the same.
He didnt mean it it was a miscue
How mature.
Well done Ronnie. It was lovely to see you both hug and clear the air.😊 Win or lose, being gracious in sport is an art by itself.
13-2 the best answer from the Goat! Brecel is next!
What a idiot
Poor Hossein! , he barked at the wrong tree from the East End
Blessings every one 🙏🏾❤️… Great watch here… "FROM MUSLIM TO ADVENTIST" BY SHABAZ. B. BEAUTIFUL TRUE AMAZING STORY FROM IRAN ENJOY POWERFUL UNMISSABLE WATCH LIFE CHANGING WATCH… 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
Don't rattle the cage 😂
I hope he feels as embarrassed as Ronnie made him look
What an idiot that guy is.
dude tried to mindgame a 7 time world champion…
The end was very touching.Ronnie respect Vafaie and Vafaie did exactly what a sportman should do.
Ronnie would've loved to have whitewashed him but 13-2 will do.
Fair play I love a gambler sometimes it doesn't pay off sometimes it does ❤
Hossein Vafaei knew he was going to lose so he smashed the break so he could get home sooner.
He was playing pool
He knew he couldn't beat Ronnie (possibly the best player snooker has ever seen) so he tried to get in his head and still got taught a lesson
Big man maybe was going for fastest best of 25, since Ronnie probably holds every other speed record
Why Vafeai to do that? It’s not a clever decision and Ronnie will a disrespectful feeling especially in world championship 😮
Imagine talking yasel up and then getting smashed 13-2 😂
To be fair, Ronnie O'Sullivan broke off like this before in a match against Hossein (and actually potted a red) and I think Vafaei found it a bit disrespectful.
Remember kids: This is the worst thing you can possibly do. Opening the table for O'Sullivan right from the start. In a World Championship Match.
Not enough 'cue power'
Try that when you have a sizable lead just to rub it in, not when you’re behind playing against the greatest snooker player in history, because it’ll make yourself the laughing stock. Ronnie showed his class at the end of the match to save Vafaei from further embarrassment. If I were Vafaei I’d fall in love with him from that moment😂
Big mouth,Hossein
Just watching John Higgins vs Kyren Wilson, after a stunning few rounds Wilson has done the usual and collapsed after the pressure from a seasoned professional.
8-0 and counting.
While dozy Virgo (where`s the white ball going ) trying to big things up, to stop punters like me going to other channels.
Probably his mates in Iran are betting on him loseing
Ronnie did it to him first at the German Masters. Hypocrites/Blind Ronnie supporters… check yourselves. Some of us have your back Hossein. ❤
Somthing dogey going on here probably betting involved
Surprise surprise, the Arabic Muslim has a short temper and does something stupid…who'd have expected that?
the break in the second frame was what ronnie did when they played before when ronnie smashed the pack and fluked a red and just smashing the balls around lol
He's a suicide snooker player !
It takes a lot of balls to do a break like that against Sullivan….
