To many people with blind hatred for so Selby they over look the FACT he is a proper match player, he has over 300 career centuries a suberb safety game, a brilliant A, B, and C game and is always tough to beat because of an awesome temprement, so what if he wins ugly, getting your name on that trophy against the best player ever would be a fantastic achievement!

No one is denying he is tactically brilliant player and good match player but you have to be blind to not see he is a boring player and sends people to sleep.

that break was so lucky

[zombieman]

Ronnie's played fewer sessions than he played last year and is not playing at all well, so how do you account for that?

You are asking WHY O'Sullivan's head is gone and started playing badly? Have you watched snooker at all in the past 20 years?

[Kargetina]

Come on Selby!

What a comeback...he needs to go into tonight's session with a lead even if it is only 13 12

AHHHHHHHHHHH HAZEL!!!!! Ronnie-Dott was 04, Dott didn't win it the next year, that was 2006 omg get the facts straight BBC you can do it!!!!

[Dave Walton]

that break was so lucky

Selby is always lucky!

[trains]

So can Selby win the session 6-3 or better ? And can the BBC get rid of Irvine and Doherty ? The intrigue continues (now for about 8 years)

Amazing comeback from Selby. He's so mentally strong, it's unreal. Simply refuses to lose.

I can't believe people are calling his style boring. There's a reason the game is called 'snooker', you know. Safeties, positional play and errors are just as much a part of it as potting reds in quick succession.

Selby and O'Sullivan are two of my favourites, but I've been rooting for Selby in this match and I'm hoping he doesn't lose momentum any time soon.

So Ronnie really should win this frame. 0-4 would be q bit worrying

[Atypical Male]

Selby's purpose there today isn't to entertain those watching - it's to win the freakin' match, and the World Championship title. He's played these last five frames very, very effectively to claw his way back towards accomplishing that goal - more power to him in hoping he continues in that stead.

He plays in a style to win... if you don't like that, that's your prerogative, but I personally think it's ridiculous to fault a player for playing with a strategically smart mentality.

Give me five more frames like the last five, please.

luck he's had has been unreal, and he's doing his usual bore his opponent to sleep so the push the boat out to make something happen or they'd be there all day. Bloody awful to watch!

[Masterdoctorgenius]

wtf

saftey mistake and no easy red

[vdking114]

Maybe cause you're supporting your local boy Selby and overlook it all.
