    Don't think Trump has been all that and Higgins has been nowhere near his best here either..

    Ronnie to probably win it..

    Hope Maguire can turn it around though but unlikely..

    Shaun Murphy is so obviously basing his commentary style on John * Virgo. Scary part is he's running him close as to who is the most annoying * on TV.

    You just know for a fact the two of them are goanny get put on the final session of the whole tournament and that'll be it ruined. Will I * be watching any match listening to they embarrassing fucktards.

    Took Yan after he beat Selby. He was very impressive tonight again, especially after being well behind. If he can get past Williams, I think he will face Trump in the semi, and he has the type of game to beat Trump I think.

    The other semi looking likely to be Higgins v O’Sullivan. Hopefully Higgins pumps him if he gets by Lisowski.

    Who's that?


    Yan was awesome last night and I think Williams was lucky to come out of the session level.

    Said to my mate last night am tempted to stick money on him to win it. Think he'll fall just short up against one of the big 3 in the final if he gets there, but he's looking supremely confident. As is young Lisowski. Really tough one to call this year.

    I was going to bet him during the Selby game and didn’t bother. Still got him at 10s after he beat Selby. If he can get past Williams and gets Trump in the semi, I think he style would be suited to playing Trump. I think he would break Trump down. Big ask for him to win it though, but he does look like world champion material, maybe not this year, but I think he will at some point.

    Aye it's the first time he's looked like world champion material for me. Was always touted as an extreme talent since breaking through but I hadn't seen it for whatever reason. Hope he can get to that elite level as the more players that are the better for us all..

    Buzzing for this the night, both games very tight and will probably go right to the wire. Hoping for Higgins Trump wins to set up an incredible semi final lineup.

    The fact the class of 92 are still performing to these levels is mind boggling man. Always want John to win everything but regardless just want to see some top level snooker every match. Love it :84:

    Ronnie, Higgins and Williams are 3 of the top 4 in the betting. It’s 2022.. mental. I backed Williams, Higgins and Wilson from the start. Not looking too bad! I think Judd might win it though. Higgins seems to have Ronnie’s number over the longer format so I’d expect him in the final personally if he gets by Jack.

    Ridiculous luck for Lisowski last couple of frames, on top of the Higg's confidence clearly dwindling. Not looking good for John now, poor stuff big man.
