Needs to play good safety, but Murphy has looked a bit loose all championship, only hasn't faced anyone who's been able to punish consistently.

Plus the advantage of someone who takes so many on, is that they're bound to miss more and leave chances than tighter players.

Last player to overturn a 10-6 deficit was Ebdon against a certain Ronnie at 2005 Worlds Quarters. He was also 8-2 down, won the match 13-11.

That's one frame back for Marco. 10-7.

From 9-3 to 10-7 i say game on

Trump did squander a big lead v robbo last year and Marco forced a decider from 9-15 down to ebdon in 2006 so theres mileage left in this match ......

Keep this up Marco, I believe in you

That will be a great match as will BJ vs Ding.

ah yes - the infamous match where Ebdon took 5mins 20s to make a 12 break.

Trump is a known choker, so this one is definitely not over yet. Next frame is key, though.

possibly not, Bingham has beaten ROS before and I don't think he is that intimidated by him

Joseph

12-5 on the other table. Perry delaying the inevitable.

Rexy

The score line flattered him v dotty though graeme was awful

He needs a 5-3 lead minimum to have a chance or Ronnie will steam roll him like in 2013

Recent matches suggest otherwise.

Keep fighting Joe

yep, the Dotty match could and should of been totally different, no way is Bingham that much better than Dotty. Agree first session is crucial for Bingham, not so for ROS.

I Agree Ronnie has to do more than Turn up

Ronnie is tuned in, he will be a double-handful for Bingo

I get the feeling he might get a tougher game than what many expect.

In the UK Bingham said he started to think about the final when he went 4-1 up and that caused him to tense. I don't think it was playing Ronnie in particular that made him collapse, he would have done the same against anybody.

This is not a good frame for Marco with the Black on the cush

Marco needs to take those chances if he wants to win.

Does anyone else get irritated when Murphy stays down on the shot for ridiculous amounts of time?

I think players do that as they think for some reason the pot is more likely to go in
