Snooker World Championship 2025

Superb from Williams, this. Nearly 17-12 and 4-0 since the start of the evening session.
 
Over. Fair play to Zhao. From cheat to World Champion in a relatively short period.

Shame.
 
Wasn't this **** done for betting on fixed matches?

Fucks he doing playing? Fucking cheating twat.

Bet he's a rag as well

Yeah, he didn’t actually fix any matches himself. Fair fucks to anyone taking money off bookies
 
Fred West got life for murder.

Zhao Xintong has done neither, but didn’t report others match fixing, so got a smaller ban for a smaller offence.
I thought he admitted to placing a bet on ‘behalf’ of another player, knowing it was a fix?

“Zhao did not directly throw a match, but he accepted charges of being party to another player fixing two matches and betting on matches himself, and for those offences he received a 20-month ban.”

The wording is a bit inconclusive.

I read it as he knew some other player was fixing matches and that he bet on other, unfixed matches.

I heard one of the ex-professional pundits talking about the case and that is exactly what he said happened.

Between September 2019 and December 2022 he made bets on snooker matches knowing they were fixed is in breach of the rules, so he's not a cheat, Hahaha, Boy some people are clueless. He made more money in them 3 years of cheating than what he's won tonight

Defo fully involved and doing it for 3 years only gets him a 20-month ban ? something stinks
Snooker has been looking for a player from China to take the game to new levels of sponsorship and overseas

Snooker will be based overseas in the next 4 years, plus the world championship will be in China, the winner will be taking home between $5million $10million, instead of £500.000

Do you have any evidence that he bet on fixed matches, as the WST don’t seem to.

He placed bets for others, probably under pressure from Liang Wenbo.
Also he tried to talk Yan Bingtao out of doing what he did to no avail.
