Gutted it didn't go to a decider, missed most of second half of session, hope Si makes rapid inroads to becoming a top 16 player... He's been a breath of fresh air this tournament.

But fair play to Brecel, hell of a comeback (kind of reminded me of the Williams/Stevens final ~20 years ago), I just hope he has the temprement to deal with a Selby snorefest if Allen doesn't remember he's been by far the more successful player this year until this semi!

Rooting big time for Brecel, hopefully he does it.

Hard to stay focused against Selby. He’s worse than that tit ebdon.

Mean I'm hoping Mark Allen beats Mark Selby, bit if I was betting is say it goes the opposite way.

Would love to see Brecel win this, shame for Si but at 20 he's going to have some hell of a career if he can move on from this

Wife has been watching this (I couldn’t), she switched over to see the F1 sprint, jokingly saying that they’d be on the same frame when she turned it back over.

She wasn’t far wrong.

Haven't watched much today as I've been out, but will definitely catch up on the Si Brecel match, absolutely gutted for Si

Really hope Brecel wins it now

Gone past my time prediction of 11.44pm. If Mark Selby had behaved himself and got this frame in the bag, it'd be done and dusted.

UTmaniac · 29 Apr 2023 at 23:51

Might have to give up on watching the conclusion, way past my bedtime!

And Selby misses a brown, Allen takes it to 16-14. :cry:

Kelt · 29 Apr 2023 at 23:57

Come on Mark!!!

chrismscotland · 30 Apr 2023 at 00:05

Have to say thought this would be well over earlier in the session, where has this Mark Allen been today?
Love to see it go to a decider now, anyway the longer this goes on the better for Brecel tomorrow, only 13 hours until the First Session of the Final starts....

I don't see Selby losing this frame.

Quartz · 30 Apr 2023 at 00:19

And Allen blows another chance.

chrismscotland · 30 Apr 2023 at 00:27

Selby blows it on the last red, come on lets get it to 16-16

Kelt · 30 Apr 2023 at 00:27

I can see Mark winning this.

Mystic Meg I am not.

UTmaniac · 30 Apr 2023 at 00:33

What a yellow pot by Allen in that clearance, cunningly using the green, 16-15!

Patriotic sentiments aside, I can only hope Brecel beats Selby, if only for the good of snooker, because God help me, Selby's snooker is an affront to the game.

Reuben klang · 30 Apr 2023 at 06:24

I fell asleep and missed it.

Going to be a long final. Hopefully Brecel starts well and just maintains its.

Selby will grind him down. Probably. Hope I'm wrong.
