Peter Ebdon legendary 12 break v Ronnie O'Sullivan

Ebdon five minutes to compile a break of 12 v Ronnie O'Sullivan. 2005 World Championship QF.

By Wikipedia:
Resuming at 10-6 down, Ebdon won the first six frames of the evening session, at one stage taking three minutes over a shot, and five minutes to compile a break of 12. Ebdon nevertheless won the match 13-11. Such performances, though lacking fluency, often appear to break his opponent mentally. Ebdon stated after his victory over O'Sullivan, "When I'm trying my hardest I seem to go slow. I don't do it intentionally". When The Times described his slow play as 'cheating', he attempted to sue them for libel and lost.
