"Incidents of various kinds" | Ronnie O'Sullivan vs Joe Perry | 2008 Shanghai Masters

"Incidents of various kinds in this match", said Mike Smith before Ronnie’s last mischief with the cue extension.

A fascinating match although full of incidents and atypical situations: an official warning to Ronnie, no miss called after a failed escape, several shots missed by a long way, two fouls with the cue while potting (Joe called it on himself), ball replacement errors, inexplicable stoppage of the game, Ronnie plays with the extension still on his cue.
Even the 3-miss rule came into play, where Joe got warned after two misses (not included in the video).
