The only morning session you know a lie-in won’t cause you to miss much.

Si could easily just come out and win the first 2 frames and it’s done a bit anticlimactic after all that

I certainly think he needs to win 1 of the first 2 frames to settle him down.

Still expect Si to cross the finishing line as you simply get a lot of chances with Luca.

Anyone else hoping for a record-breaking marathon in the Selby v Allen match?!!

It could be like the Griffiths v Charlton semi in ‘79, finishing at 1.40am.

The kid has had a lot thrown at him over the past 2 weeks and I have to say has responded brilliantly every time. I hope he can do it again.

if Luca practised 20 min instead of 15, he would win this match for sure.

Fair to say Allen losing that frame to go 7-3 ahead has made a massive difference. Selby already needed a snooker, and instead of making the most of the countless chances Allen had to put the frame away, he allowed Selby back in everytime.
Once you allow Selby to come back to the table to get the snookers he requires, more than often than not he does and then Allen lost that frame and lost focus. Hopefully he doesn't make the same mistake again, he's only 1 frame behind but needs to start scoring again.

Brecel played some fantastic stuff yesterday. So entertaining. It was Alex Higgins level stuff.

Just watching last night’s session. Si is a killer it’s ridiculous. But that 60 odd break by Luca, following the ton he made, to stay in contention… what crazy joyous shotmaking. What a game.

What a session! Brilliance.
As for the other match. Those two should be ashamed of themselves. Only managed 5 frames. Turgid doesn’t even begin to describe it.
I still enjoyed it though.

I think his nickname should be Bullit Train. Luca Bullit Train Brecel.

He should come out to the theme from ‘Bullitt’, that would be a seriously cool entrance

Sorry. Don't remember the first time.
Brecel's alright, just thought the alliteration was funny
