4-1.
Selby has played some good stuff tonight but Mags has been helping a bit more than Murphy will tomorrow (assuming Selby wins from here).

By helping, I mean not taking half chances that someone like Murphy might've.

At last Selby has woken from his slumber. He will be a strong contender at The Crucible make no mistake about that, along with Robertson, O'Sullivan, Murphy and Trump. I also would never rule out John Higgins, even if he isn't playing consistently well at the moment. It could be a great World Championship.
One word about this event. A great venue, but a shame that there were 4 great quarters last night and only one was televised.

Careless safety from Selby there.

Yes, that was such a shame. Four matches all with deciding frames and we only got to watch one of them.

Ugh, Maguire can be such a walkover sometimes. Even with Selby gifting him chances, he just can't seem to take the bull by the horns. It must be hell to be a Maguire fan.

Muppet147; They would only have needed to start the tournament a day earlier and all the quarter finals could have been played on one table. The roll-on, roll-off was a good way of playing the quarter finals in standard ranking events.

Unfortunately the Tempodrom is a very popular venue and they can't get it for more than the five days they already have. At least we have 32 at the venue instead of cramming in 64 like last year.

5-1 Selby.
Doubt this'll go on for much longer now. At least Selby doesn't have a late night before the final.

Okay. I didn't realise that. I guess it is lazy television watchers like me complaining when the emphasis should be on people attending the venue. I think yesterday was a fluke that won't happen again for quite some time,.

High quality stuff by Selby tonight. I didn't expect him to play so well, he fully deserves this 5-1 lead.

The Selby who won the World Title finally turned up this season. It will be a cracking final.

Hopefully, but I'll fancy Shaun nevertheless to win it.

No chance anyone is going to beat Selby from 4 down with 5 to play in a major match.

Hasn't Allen done that a couple of times in the past?
