      Thanks Bpatel
      I was reading getting caught up in the excitement and then they didn't say who won I almost went to look on Sky Sports.

      I'm watching that as well, its been brilliant so far, and i'm not even a big fan of snooker. 

      Very interesting to see who wins..i hope its Selby!!  :)

      Selby's a dude isn't he.

      Tell you what though, Allen looks a very good player.

      This could go either way, easily.

      Currently 4-3 to Allen.

      No he's a lady!!  ::)


      But Selby's a great player to watch!! But Allen looks good as well

      And right now Selby might just win the 8th game to make it 4-4.

       :lmao:

      Smarty pants! I mean he seems like a decent fella.  ;)

      Could be a good frame here. Allen's played the safety but the reds have opened up....doesn't look like much is on though.

      Best match that I've seen in this tournament so far.

      Hope it goes to a deciding frame.

      Currently 5-4 to Allen.

       :D...So glad he won, but unfortunately Allen lost, no-one really deserved to lose.

      I hope he can go on to win the tournament again.

      Fantastic to watch, glad I got to.

      Allen played great snooker throughout the match except the last two frames, which saw him go from 5-4 up to losing 6-5. He was taking on pots that were nearly impossible to make and when you only need that final frame those more difficult pots become even harder. His safety in the last frame wasn't bad and he was unlucky for Selby to pot a red when getting out of a snooker.

      Well played to Selby, looks the real deal and he's only 24. Maybe worth a punt for the World's. Really like Selby as a player because he seems to enjoy himself while he's playing. Anybody who doesn't like snooker, should sit down and watch this match.

      It was as good as it got in terms of scoring, now I expect another top class game between Higgo and Ding. Maybe a tad more tactical with someone like Higgins playing, but Ding is another of the young generation who take on every pot. I'm just about to settle down to it. So lets get the boys on the baize :laugh:

      If Ronnie is on form, he'll be unstoppable but because Ronnie is the obvious choice I'm gonna stick me neck out and say Ali Carter will win at Wembley.

      Oh the irony eh mate!

      The match between Ronnie and Ali was so intense to start with. Loads of safety and Ronnie didn't look like he was up for any long pots.
      Sadly, Ali looked like he crumbled and missed some very important blacks in key stages of the match. I was hoping he was going to keep focused to keep the match tight. But you know what happens if you give Ronnie a few chances. He'll take you apart.

      The semi's between O'Sullivan v Maguire and Selby v Higgins should be very good to watch!

      Personally, I reckon it'll be an O'Sullivan - Higgins final.

      Carter always seems to crumble against Ronnie.  After his demolition of Ebdon I quite fancied him too but no matter how much form you're in, Ronnie can still rip you apart.  I reckon only a handful of players have the mentality to stay with Ronnie when he's on form and one of them is Higgins.

      I'd love to see a Higgins - O'Sullivan final again.  I remember the masters final a few years ago when it was in the deciding frame and Ronnie knocked in a 60 odd break, then Higgins cleared up the rest of the table and won 10-9.  That was a classic and how I'd love to see it again.

      Anyone watching the Selby vs Higgins match now?

      Its currently 2-1 to Higgins, but it looks like Selby might win this frame to make it 2-2.

      Had visitors but they've gone now so just put it on.

      Ooooh, Selby is back on the table. And it's safety time!  ;D
