Glad he managed to get over the line. Good to see Hawkins well on top too.

 

[DarkSithLord]

GET IN THERE HOLTY! Immense performance!

 

[Ciderhead]

Great effort! Shame he'll be going out in the next round

Start of this Trump v Wembo match has been at an incredible standard. This could be a cracker

 

[DarkSithLord]

Hawkins through with easy against Anda Zhang to meet... you guessed it! Rocket Ronnie! again,

 

[DarkSithLord]

Did anyone see the superb century from Gould earlier including this awesome fluke

Was laughing out loud when that went in. That red though all the way along the side cushion was incredible

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

Wow, that's some fluke.

 

[Ciderhead]

It's not just the fact the blue went in, but knocking the pink into play as well!

 

[Super_horns]

Good game between Ding and Gould - former made an excellent comeback from 8-6 down to win.

Wembo and Wilson to cause more upsets?

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

The quality of Perry v Wilson has been excellent. Looks like Perry is going to shade it.

Kyren Wilson has other ideas. Fantastic break of 58 there!

Yeah, I posted that as Perry was going strong and looked like making it 9-7 and he missed. Now it's 8-8. Great stuff.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Kyren Wilson can play cant he?! Awesome opening Red for that break. 9-8 wilson.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Mammoth frame here. Enthralling stuff!

 

[DarkSithLord]

WOW... Perry escapes from a snooker, almost goes in off and then flukes the brown!! Unbelievable

 

[DarkSithLord]

And now the drama of a decider. Crazy frame!

What a frame that was. I was going to go to bed at 10 but this has me gripped.

What a match.

Night!

 

[DarkSithLord]

What a match.

Night!

Will take some topping as match of the tournament!

Deserved winner IMO....just!!

 

[Ciderhead]

This is more like the Mark Williams I remember today..

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

Fu through then.

Played extremely well so far.

Peter Ebdon has taken over Phil Neville's mantle as dullest voiced commentator

Well he is the dullest player to watch too so it makes sense!

Awful choice by the BBC. Woeful.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Ali Carter has totally gone off the rails against McManus. Looks to be in big trouble.

 

[Pagnell]

McManus as good as through. Fantastic, great to see an old timer I used to watch in the 1990s do well. Not a fan of Carter either.

 

[Super_horns]

Blast from the past - good showing though.

 

[Master D]

Williams looks on his way through as well. Hawkins will be a tough one for Ronnie, his record is good at the worlds in recent years.

Sam Baird played well this morning against Selby, trailing 7-9 going into tonight.
