Probably missed eight or nine blacks off the spot. You can\u2019t do that at this level. Very, very disappointed after playing like I did against Ronnie. Just didn\u2019t enjoy it out there.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Everything was hard work today. Too many mistakes, cost me big time.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018He didn\u2019t really have to work hard to get in.
