    He's a wee cheat Carter..

    Said it touched the yellow when it was called a foul and it deffo never touched..

    He's had a knack of standing over John numerous time's when he's been down or about to go down on a shot as well..

    They really need to do something to shake off the malaise of snooker in general. I didn't even know The Masters was on until the other day channel hopping.

    Not marketed at all.

    Carter is a * of a guy, always enjoy seeing him lose, even more so in finals.

    Ronnie O'Sullivan playing very well. Looks like he is gunning for Trump's title.

    Missin Willie’s commentary. No sure about the new ones Perry and Rob Walker. Davis has been quite funny in this match (Williams v Bingham).

    Maguire got absolutely pumped. Think Higgins might be in for a tough match as well the boy he was up against looked decent this afternoon.

    John Higgins with a 147 only the 7th snooker player to complete it at the crucible

    Higgins is a joy to watch. He took a risk early on in that frame to take the 147. I use to like snooker but O'Sullivan and Higgins are the only two players that make it interesting. And possibly Williams.

    Bit gutted he went out but Marlin deserved it. Some of the shots he played were incredible. I think that was the difference. Higgins' longer potting wasn't quite as good and Maflin was sinking everything. If he plays like that in the semi, he'll make the final.
