Ref hardly called it for nothing...

That foul could cost him the match..

It wasn't a foul off 2 angles. Commentator's couldn't see it.

So more angles need to be seen. And slo mo..

No need for a slow motion. It either hit or didn't. Should be visual from second angle. If Jan could see it from where he was the second angle would of shown it.

I just don’t believe this. Great red, flicks the 2 reds off the cushion then in off into the middle.

Yeeessssssssss

This is the worst exhibition of shot potting I've seen

Hoping Cahill can force a deciding frame here.

I'd say his head is gone.

Still very enjoyable despite the poor snooker and missed pots. Very dramatic and unpredictable. Huge pressure.

Hopefully Cahill overcomes here but that last Frame play would of broke then most experienced men.

12-12. Cahill has to be favorite, Maguire is a mess, he can’t make 8.

Maguire just cannot handle the pressure.

I've no sound, what's happening with Jan!?

Director wanted to lift dividing wall was gonna wait for other table to finish but decided against it

That's probably the end of the match. Poor safety by Cahill.

Yep Maguire through

Maguire wins his 2nd final frame decider in a row after losing his previous 5 at the crucible. Delighted for him but he needs to improve a lot to go any further

Not really watching long sessions this year,half hour /45 mins here and there but have seen a lot today and am surprised by the small amount of kicks I've seen. Have they come up with a magic cure?

There's a new chalk a lot of the players are using that seems to be eliminating a lot of the kicks. Only downside is its expensive, 20 yo-yos a stick apparently, so a few skinflints (eg Trump) are sticking with the old cheapo triangle stuff. They do say you tend to get the odd miscue with the new stuff, but i think that threat diminishes once you adapt to it.
