188BET Champion of Champions Group 1

No whitewash at least.

Hopefully Perry can settle from here, Higgins is well below par, Perry needs to take advantage.

Perry's turned things around quickly. From almost 0-2, he's 2-1 up now.

Perry's problem over the years against the top players has always been finishing matches off. Usually starts well, but bottles things up when the match gets close.

Good response from Higgins on a difficult table and it's 2-2.

It seems that Higgins is not flawless like he was in IC, but still very good for Joe's standards. The Gentleman has to take advantage of every half chance (as he did in the frames he won).

Of course Joe has no chance with so poor safety game.

3-2 for Higgins.

3-3 now, Perry responded brilliantly with a century.

Happy that Joe has managed to stay in touching distance, if he's to win this match, can't let Higgins get too many in front.

Higgins is far from his best, but still think he'll pull off the win.

Two big breaks in a row from Perry to go 4-3. Higgins will have to tighten up a bit if Perry keeps this up.

Unfortunately you may be right, Perry may start chocking when the winning line gets near.

Still, he has produced the best stuff of the match so far, after that ton, an 85 break puts him 4-3 ahead.

4-4. Getting to the twitchy part of the match now...

lol, that pink was even better than the one Higgins had against Perry at the IC shame he missed the black, but the frame well and truly won.

I do expect Perry to start getting twithcy now.

Crucial frame the previous one. Perry looks calm despite losing it, though.

Nothing says 'I'm a successful guy' like a nice gold tie.

or Higgins will just be too good and perry won't even have a chance to get twitchy

Love the carpet at Successful Guys, really boosts the credibility of the tournament.

That's it Joe, just hand the match over to Higgins, why don't you.

You could call joes safety, sloppy joes!

Wahey!

Higgins is eating them up alright

Joe's done. Stick a fork in him.

Excellent break from joe, still see him choking last frame

lol me too, but whatever happens in the decider he's done very well to force it.

Cmon Joe

First chance Perry...

Kicks!

FFS, that was a monster kick.

Hmm, I'd class that as a choke bad cueing under pressure

My God what a kick

You want it to be a choke, but it just wasn't, it was just a horrendus kick.

Joe is furious, rightly so

Could be, but whatever, more luck for Higgins as usual.
