              Never in doubt really, well done to John Higgins. He now has a chance to win his third major event of 2015, which seemed unthinkable even a year ago. And he has been quite lucky with his final opponents as well, Woollaston, Gould and now Gilbert. But of course he still needs to do the business. :smile:

                      Just a quick prediction before I go to bed...

                      The first time I saw Gilbert play was in the 1st round of the 2007 World Championship, where I believe he led Stephen Hendry 5-1 at one point, but just started missing a few when he had a real chance to run away with the match, and he ended up losing 10-7. We didn't see him much on TV in the following years, but the best match I saw him play was probably in the 2009 Welsh Open, where he thrashed Mark Williams in the final qualifying round (the match was held over to the venue) with some great one-visit snooker. He scores really well when he is on form and he can be quite fluent, so it's a little surprising he hasn't had more success in the game. It's not just that he hasn't won anything, he doesn't even get through the early rounds all that often. It could all change after tomorrow though. This will be the biggest match of his life, kind of like it was for Woollaston and Gould when they faced Higgins in ranking finals recently. I am not expecting him to win, but I do hope he does himself justice and plays the way he has been all week. :smile:

                      As for Higgins, not much to be said really. A chance to win his third major title in a little over six months, which would again put him among the best players in the world after a few years of mediocrity. He has a habit of starting these finals really well and stamping his authority on the match, and it takes a good player to respond to that. It's a question whether Gilbert has the experience and the mental strength to do that, particularly since he has never been in this position before, and the pressure of the occasion might get to him a little. And even if it doesn't, there is still the huge task of actually beating an in-form Higgins in a two-session snooker match. I will go for a 10-4 win for Higgins, but obviously I am hoping for a closer match. :smile:

                        Yea I mostly see him play in the premier league/champions league whatever it is called now and you can tell he's got a game that can take you to higher spots in the rankings.

                          an enjoyable first session
                          it did seem from the start of Eurosport coverage that Gilbert needed Higgins to miss for him to get any headway but after the msi he regained composure and showed his game
                          looking forward to 11:30

                            Gilbert is handling the pressure pretty well, but unfortunately for him, Higgins has been relentless. Yet another crucial clearance, he's made three or four like that in his televised matches this week. :smile:

                                Well done to David Gilbert for getting to, and playing pretty well in, his first ranking major final, now rank 21, biggest pay cheque (I am sure his new wife will have that taken care of :wink, and hopefully a springboard to good times
                                But unfortunately he came up against John Higgins who was just playing near-perfect snooker all event.
