Despite Robbo's recent losses to Selby, he's playing well and has upped his game from Round 1, and there's no reason he can't up it again, while Selby scrappped through against Hawkins. Plus Robbo's the type of player who is generally unaffected by recent head to heads.

From a neutral perspective, he has every chance.

From a Selby fan perspective, hell no

We'll just have to wait and see.

Great QF line up. Robbo v Selby will be another cracking match

Friday 1st of March

6.30am

Judd Trump v Matthew Stevens
Neil Robertson v Mark Selby

11.30am

Mark Allen v Ricky Walden
Ding Junhui v John Higgins

Come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn John!!!!,


A 5-0 against Ding a Ling is just what the Dr orders!.

Some strange things happening in this tourney..

Judd plays the break off shot but then when he was about to break off notices strange things on his cue tip and the match is delayed after just 1 shot

I'm very surprised, cause like Foulds rightly said, you would expect him to have a practice session earlier but I can't believe he did that on purpose.

So ITV is now showing the Selby match, at least for about 15 min until Judd, Stevens and the ref return.

Judd now returns.

ES2 showing the Selby match, and like Snookerfan think I'll watch that match or at last highlights of it this afternoon or evening.

latest

Trump 1-3 Stevens
Robertson 2-2 Selby

Robbo needed to beat Selby today, he did and it was a good result.

Well done.

you have to question Judd here no disrespect to matthew but how did Judd lose the Match.


playing well in spasms isn't good enough to win tournaments.

you have to sustain it for a long period of time.

and with a Flat 128 that means more matches for top players to play to win tournaments.

with stevens and Robbo reaching semis you should be winning the prediction contest but your faith in them is non existent this week

its a tactic last 2 days i pick both to lose they win

but what do i pick for tomorrow

matthew now looks secure in his top 16 spot for worlds

its fast getting to the point where Matthew Stevens is the Welsh no 1.

Mark Williams has World Semi final points to defend and at the moment he could be out of the top 16 at the end of the season
