Who says snooker is all about knocking in big breaks! Brilliant to watch these last two frames

This is epic! Great for the game, great atmosphere. What a lovely gesture between players with John tapping Mark on the side as they walked out. Just terrific.

Yeh if I had to put my life on it I'd say Higgins, but with the home crowd I think Allen might just get inspired to do that bit more than he's already done. Good stuff tho isn't it.

Brilliant stuff already

I’d like to see that but my head says Higgins given it’s so close .

Completely agree …. So who do you fancy CC ?

It's a best of five now then! Can see this being a black ball game in deciding frame. Played in great spirit so far, wonderful to watch and see a crowd enjoy.

Great final, well poised going into the interval .
The next frame is crucial for both players .

Great great clearance from Higgins, just think Ronnie could have bigged it up a little more........

Wasn't it just, brilliant frame. We've seen some superb snookers laid in this tournament, more than usual it seems to me.

what to do now for 2 hours?

What do people think to Bingtao refusing the cut back black for the match against Ronnie and pushing it safe to the cushion. Not sure how many others would have done the same.
He still won of course, just very surprised at the time.

I think a lot of players would rather try and take an opportunity to win a frame over losing a frame from playing safe, I just don't think Yan is one of them.

The other four-time World Champion liked that clearance as well.
