    Well controlled frame from Lilley won in with an accumulation of visits. Jimmy never really got going. Jimmy's last chance was a dangerous green.
    Deserved frame from Lilley.

    Lilley 3 - White 0

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    Why in the world would Jimmy take on that green? It defies logic.

    The green was tight on the rail, Jimmy tried to drop it into the Green pocket (with the rest) - after he fluked a red. He could have rolled up to the brown but didn't.

    He always has been all or nothing. Like that long opening red there!

    He's in now alright. Balls going into the middle of the pockets.

    Still, I'd much rather watch Jimmy playing badly than Selby playing well.

    Oof!! Would the red up near the green not have been a safer choice there??

    80 plus in quick time for Jimmy, wherever he managed to find it from.

    Dare I say vintage Jimmy?

    Lilley 3 - White 1

    Rob Walker more emotional for the Dennis Taylor tribute, than Dennis himself. That amused me.

    Jayus, Lilley looks like to have handed White this frame.

    Missed maximum at 60 for Jimmy - but gets another chance.

    Match level 3-3 (barring snookers Lilley needs four - 4 pointers)

    Jimmy definitely went for it though, the blaggard.

    Twas early enough for lilley to be glimpsing the finish line. Just tensed right up, lost his rhythm completely, like he just suddenly remembered the magnitude of whats at stake.

    Yeah, I edited it - after getting caught out with that yesterday , when Lilley played on for ages.

    Jimmy potted the red this time, anyway.

    Snooker scrambles people's minds so much.
    It must be the quiet and a fella alone with his thoughts in the chair or on the table. No hiding place unlike a team sport on a pitch I suppose.

    The way I look at it Ken should have had Two World Seniors won in a row.
    Oh and a sports car.

    I'm not surprised his brain is fried, it's not just the prestige and the money, but automatic entry into every seniors event next season as well as champion of champions qualification. There's almost too much on the line there. If he copes with this and manages to get over the line, I'll say fair fcks to him. Fear for him now though.

    Jayus, I knew about the Champions of Champions thing. Not the automatic entry to all the seniors events. Massive for Lilly in that case. Life changing stuff.
