Rooting for Mags to win and send Ding to the qualifiers. To be fair he deserves this, it can be a wake up call for him after almost 3 years without winning anything.
Not too fussed about the others, but Noppon winning his match against Higgins would be nice, and if he can knock Robbo out, then he needs to believe the same facing Higgins.

I'd like a Higgins-Bingham semifinal (best of 11, right?) for John to avenge the ridiculous defeat at the Masters. Then a Higgins-Trump final might be fun. However, Bingham should up his game soon...

How come Walden and Bingham are in their fourth frame, and Higgins is still in frame one?
Is that just a live score mistake? It's got Higgins 4 points up in frame 1. Surely he isn't playing that slowly.

Apparently there's a Chinese player called Foo-pa Rill who's entering the qualifying stages for the Crucible - he's only 6-years-old!

I made it up myself! I should have made it even younger - as after posting it, was thinking, that is
almost believable!

They amended it. Higgins was 4-0 up, not four points up in frame 1.

Walden played well it seems. Four breaks above 50. I'm happy to see him finding a bit of something again.

LOL @ The Snooker Mavericks last night. Ken-Do's impersonation of Higgins is pure banter.

TWITTER ATTACK!
Matt @ProSnookerBlog John Higgins beats Noppon Saengkham 5-3 to reach the semi-finals where he will play Ricky Walden in Beijing.
That must've been a belter, Higgins was 4-0 up.
Now imagine that match was a best of seven.

A mammoth match for both players,Mags lookin to avoid having to go through qualifying for the Worlds and to force Ding to have to and Burden lookin to get to his first ever semi-final.
COME ON MAGS!,you can do it.

Mmm, Ding will be very disappointed if Mags wins, but it's not the end of the world for him.
On the other hand, if Mags loses, I would go as far as to say it could be a career-defining loss. I would be very concerned today if I was a Maguire fan and he lost.
