    Yeah, John may have missed a couple but he upped his gave towards the end with some great clearances and the 131 before the mid-session break was superb. Just think that he actually won 8 of the last 9 frames of the match!

    Yeah, Ding came out like a man possesed, he was amazing.

    Clive said on commentary that some guy there who has put Stg£26,000 on Ding beating Hendry @ 8/13.

    Is 8/13 not the odds, rather than the score?

    Well at least I got one exact. :)

    Ronnie looked a little dodgy tonight though, you've got to feel Mark Allen should be ahead.

    Maguire looked good winning 10-5, I suppose he's the form player of the tournament so far.

    Ronnie's never defended a world title, and he looked a bit iffy alright. Not convinced by Maguire or Carter.

    Seems the value is a bit further out either Higgins, Murphy or Ding. Not sure which one to punt on.
