On April 27, Beijing time, the 2022 Snooker World Championship entered the quarterfinals of the competition, Yan Bingtao's match against the "golden left hand" Mark Williams, Yan Bingtao played a 6-2 in the second stage, chasing down to 8-8 draw. During the game, there was a very funny scene.
In the 14th set, when Yan Bingtao was about to catch up with the big score, the British audience began his "performance", and after Yan Bingtao defended, a voice shouted out, "Yan, I need to pee." Williams responded with a smile when he heard it: "Me too." ”
It should be said that this is not a very comfortable interaction. Obviously, this is a joke about Yan Bingtao's playing style. Previously, in the showdown between Yan Bingtao and Selby, the 22nd inning was called a super "bladder inning", because this was the longest innings in the history of the World Championships officially counted by WST, playing for an hour and a half, when Selby directly went to the toilet, after going to the toilet, Selby collapsed. It seems that some people don't want to watch such a long innings, so some viewers shouted this sentence.
However, whether it is Selby or Yan Bingtao, it is such a style, Selby has also encountered great controversy, and his "slow and rationale" has been criticized by many parties. If Yan Bingtao achieves results, it is certain that there will be more such voices. Admittedly, this is also the charm of snooker. Yan Bingtao strengthens his psychological quality, there is no problem, because the rules allow you to be so slow.
All in all, Yan Bingtao chased 8-8 in the second stage, which made people see his hope of reaching the final four. Although Mark Williams has been bigger than Yan Bingtao in the past year, in terms of mentality, Yan Bingtao is more peaceful, and as the game enters the final stage, yan Bingtao may have a greater probability of promotion. It is important to note that the final phase will continue today at 21:30.
