Oh ffs, knew I should've checked back in on that match. My family insisted on watching Miracle on 34th Street at dinner

It was a **** match really, scrappy all the way through. Even the decider they were both missing easy ones.

[Locke.]

Lisowski has taken the first frame

[InOne]

Bingham is meant to be on form at the moment so he'll have a bit of a job

[InOne]

Watching Fu and Allen at the moment, the other match doesn't seem to be on red

Got it on the BBC website

I'm in agreement...I think we'll be hearing a lot about him over the next few years, the next big thing in snooker. Judd Trump first, then him.

So glad Luca made it to this tournament. Wasn't expecting him to progress past the first round and certainly not the second so he did really well. Excellent little player, needs to brush up on his positional play but he's definitely improved since April.

Really gutted he didn't beat Murphy this afternoon. When I got home and it was 4-3 to Luca I was quite shocked but hopeful, the couple of mistakes he made when he was 5-4 which cost him a win there were so annoying, and then once it went to a decider I knew it was in Shaun's favour. Couldn't believe how close it got at the end, and then that second pink he missed at the end was just gutting. That dull fat man always has to spoil the party.

Not quite sure how he'd have faired against Ali Carter but a potential final of Luca Brecel VS Neil Robertson would've been excellent. Nevertheless, he's done really well this week and I hope we see more of him soon

Good tournament for the English players so far ( obviously apart from Judd )

Good win for Judd there, thought it was gonna be an early knockout for him again. He's not seemed to do that well in British tournaments

[Jack_]

I miss Ronnie so much, it's not the same without him around I hope he's back for the World's in April.

[Marc]

Brilliant from Dott yesterday. Good to see him back in good form

[InOne]

He's still sooooo boring though. Watching him and Judd was awful

[Marc]

Nobody can beat Ebdon in the boring-scale

[InOne]

He's up there, who else played yesterday? I'm a bit out the loop

[Marc]

Selbey thrashed Williams, he's playing Dott now.

Murphy playing Robertson in other semi

[InOne]

Hope it's a Robertson Selby final

[Iceman]

I want Selby to win

[Kate!]

I like snooker, used to watch it religiously, haven't taken more than a passing interest recently. Must try to get back into it.
