The rerack was called too early. Perry had the initiative and i wonder what would have happened when the reds were coming nearer to the black. Would have been more difficult for Maguire to play safe from a red without knocking the black in. Though roll ups would have been the next shots played I guess.

Perry leaves red over middle so chance for Maguire already

[PaulTheSoave]

Agree there! Perry has been 5 frames more than 40 points in front and still lost the frame.

AND HE IS NOW PAYING THE PENALTY??!!

How can you say that Joao?

There have been good breaks, great comebacks within frames.

Snooker isn't ALL about total clearances you know...

Both players agreed to it Paul.

Even when the black eventually dropped, it would still be a mess

Well, they're both trying too hard not to lose. I don't even find it has been intensive (like Wenbo vs Swail) or very well played.

O, did they? Thought Jan called it.
Pity, I like it when the balls are awkard positioned. its fascinating

He said "Shall we re-rack"

Both players agreed

I disagree whole-heartedly, this has been one of the most intriguing matches I've watched.

To say it hasn't been very well played is a little odd. Yes balls have been missed, but I wouldn't say the standard is any worse than the match you mention

[PaulTheSoave]

Yes, its fascinating. Maguire is losing his marbles a couple of times and Perry nearly snookered himself on the blue and let Stephen in again!

[rambon]

perry breaks down on 43, maguire should step in and take it now...

I bet you liked first round match between Hawkins and Carter then.

[PaulTheSoave]

We could have a respotted black!!!

Wonderful shot on the pink though!

[rambon]

Maguire 13 up, 13 left

A re-spotted black in a re-rack?

[Rane]

And now Wenbo would be celebrating

That would be rubbish wouldn't it?
