If Ronnie gets through to the final tomorrow, do you give the skipper any chance against him? Can he end his hoodoo over the Chigwell Chief?
Me and me pal: Carter has never beaten O'Sullivan in professional play

I agree with this poll at all that, but posting it before the higgins v o'sullivan semi could be classed as a jinx

thing is Allen had chances and good chances at that. he didnt take them and the shackles came off Ronnies play.
you got to take thoes chances or the Rocket will go in to orbit.
Ronnie in my opinion has to play better than he did yesterday to win tonight.
but having said that Selby had plenty of chances aswell....hard match to call this one

You're being way too harsh imo. Every player will literally get chances against O'Sullivan in a match, that's natural. But just because a player sometimes misses, it doesn't mean they're 'collapsing mentally' against him, it's not that simplistic. Higgins misses balls against Ronnie, is he afraid of Ronnie ?
