Should be a fantastic semi. I hope Ronnie's long game will be good. He'll need it.

Ronnie had a long pot success of over 75% today. Better than Robbo so far.

Reracks happen so damn fast these days... tactical exchanges like those are always nice, and in that situation there was definately room for more shots to be played. I hate it when both players agree

I reckon they shouldn't allow reracks. The referees should make them play on, and find a solution.

Mark Selby probably wouldn't have agreed if he was leading 4-1.

My prediction of the day: the winner of the 2015 Masters will come from the top half of the draw.
Anyone disagreeing?

I predicted this as a 6-5 win for Robbo.

No. I also predict that the runner up will come from the winner of Murphy v Maguire.

Not Allen?
Neither Murphy nor Maguire were that excellent in their first round.

It's about winning, not being excellent.
A lot of winners have looked rusty in the first round, and improved match on match over the tournament.

Carter should work on his body language. He's just encouraging his opponents by showing so much negativity all the time.
