Snooker

hoping to see Ronnie through so I could watch at last

Sod Ronnie, watch Si v Lucas on now.

Superb quality.

Some hot referee action going on here.

This 7th frame is painful to watch

The way they are playing, I can't see either of the Marks beating Si Jiahui in the final.

I really hope Selby doesn't make it to the final, I respect how he's got the mental capacity to play like he does but I absolutely hate it. Absolutely awful to watch.

What a session and fightback from Brecel

Indeed. Firmly in the ABS camp. Not that I've watched much of it this year.

I hope Si rattles off 3 frames quickly today, but have a feeling he'll lose a last frame decider. Whoever wins that match I hope wins the final.

Si was 14-5 up. Now it's 14-13. Jesus.

Based on the momentum I'm revising my prediction to 17-14 to Brecel. He'll hopefully win the final too now.

Wow. Just wow.

What scenes.

Gutted that red didn't flick the black to drop in the big pocket. We deserved penalties!

So much this.

If the match tonight goes the full 13 frames, I fear for Leo Scullion's constitution.

Just caught up with Brecel/Si, incredible, feel for Si but Brecel plays like when you're at Riley's with your mates but he's actually good.

Horrible feeling Selby's going to just grind all the joy out of the final, force Luca to play risky shot after shot and win with a session to spare. Hope to god I'm wrong.

This evening session is a bit of a slog

Rep

If this doesn't go to a decider we'll have been robbed.

Business end of the 2nd frame and I am already calling John Virgo a cumt.

"Where's the ball going! Where's it going?! WHERE IS IT GOING?!!"

Clearly nowhere near a pocket, wind your neck in.

I don't get the Virgo hate especially when Sean Murphy is an alternative. So painful to listen to, him commentating whilst Selby is playing makes you want to drive nails into your eyes and ears.

That brown into the middle pocket that Brecel made, absolutely sensational.

Murphy 👎

I’m watching on my phone, they cut to the studio and for a brief moment I thought “have they got Elon Musk on?” ah no, no, that’s Ken Doherty.

A 147!

Nice little retirement gift for Brendan Moore too
