Betway United Kingdon Championship Last 64 !!!!!

Higgins was 63-50 up, needing only pink, but overcut it streching and Noppon forced the respot.

Higgins then instead of the usual side to side cushion shot, attempted to double the black into yellow pocket, missed it and Noppon potted the black.

Did not expect that. He must have been annoyed at missing that pink. It wasn't that hard

Luca wins 6-5

Starting to get some good results again, about time.

BBC leaves the live snooker

Selby has missed so many shots today, and his long potting has been terrible.

His opponent hasn't played much better, which explains the (looking like) 4-4 scoreline.

Credit is due though, another player playing the way Selby has would probably have lost this match by now.. Selby just hangs in there...

Higgins wins 6-4, but could have easily went to a decider there where anything can happen...

Didn't play well at all, but he like Selby manages to win those sort of matches.

Agreed. Selby's cue ball control and positional play is just infinitely better than Wells', it'll probably win him this match.

Having said that.. my word is Selby playing badly today. Hell have to really dig deep here.

Wells building these 40 point leads and then playing safe... has worked so far in this match, but his cue ball control is awful.

Wells must be one of the most naive players I've ever seen.

I think he's been wrong side of the blue / not on the blue at all more than he's been on it in this match. No one to blame but himself if he loses.

Exactly. And that long red attempt opening 3 pretty safe reds for Selby was completely out of line.

It might even go to a decider, but Selby won't lose this match... Wells lacks the killer instinct, whereas Selby has bags of it.

Another 40 break coming up, even I got a 46 the other day!

Anyone else getting temporary faults every other minute on bbc online?

Yeah.

I'm getting them on the Red Button.

That's what I meant, the red button - not online.

Those stats are like a kick in the teeth to Wells. To only manage a top break of 40-odd, and to not be able to beat a player who only had 84% pot success is quite something.

Wells isn't great.
