Not the final many people wwould have predicted at the start of the week. Bingham to keep his form rolling.

Think Bingham'll win but really want Walden to. Hope it's a cracker either way.

I just watched Eurosport's select highlights of Bingham vs Davis. They started it in frame five, then after that was finished cut to frame nine.
Eurosport
Looked like a dramatic game though. Bingham wins another decider. Final will be tasty, both men going for their second ranking event win. The tournament has to be Binghams, surely.

Not even Mavis's epic clearance from eight? For shame Eurosport.

It started at 4-0, Mavis took it to 4-1, then after the break it was suddenly 4-4. I forgot that it was 11-frames for a minute, so I thought we were only getting two frames.
If only my shitty Virgin broadband could go for more than 90-seconds without losing connection. I might have stayed in and watched the game, instead of going out and getting a sun burn.

I think it will be.
What a story. Who'd have predicted this final before the tournament started? I wouldn't. Two men going for their second ranking event. It seems like a long time since Walden won his.
I kind of want both men to win.

I recorded the semi coverage last night - was it any good or shall I delete without watching, I have some paint to watch later on.

Arena's barely full even for the final. It's great we have so many events but it's odd we have so many in China that are barely attended, like this and Haikou, while Europe, which has massive crowds even for PTCs, is neglected

You're right, but China has the sponsorship money, and unfortunately Europe doesn't yet and the UK seemingly doesn't want to.

Bingham is in. The layout of the reds and colours isn't good though.

Going to be a low scoring frame. Seven reds potted and the aggregate score is 17.

Walden 4-0 up at the MSI. Shouldn't be too complacent though, he knows that the lead can be overturned.

He gets it!
Still 5-1 down though. Hope he doesn't get distracted and slip further behind from here...

6-1. Maxs only win one frame after all. Bingo needs to play unbelievably well as Ricky isn't going to roll over.

I get 3 points if Bingham wins 10-6 and you get 0 because you predicted a Walden win. I am only 2 points behind you.

I thought it was two for a correct score. Moot anyway as it's 7-1.
