I am giving both semis a miss. I hope Bingtao and Williams win. If they don't both win, I will give the final a miss as well.

How on Earth are these balls going in ?????????
The red rattled in the jaws of the pocket and the black hit the cushion first, yet they both went in.

Mark is really starting to cue well in recent months. This SightRight thing is definitely working. Reminds me of his 2011 form.

When Ronnie's out of a tourney, even the number of comments on Snooker Island has a significant drop.
Even a diehard Selbo fan like Wildey will admit that Ronnie is the
of the snooker jungle.
