    The way Wenbo plays against Ronnie is entertaining, but not very effective at the moment. I guess nobody really expected him to beat O'Sullivan anyway, so why not give it a go.
    Yes, this is the way I expected it before the match. Leaving too many open chances, which is deadly against O´Sullivan. In the first match against Doherty he seemed to be much more disciplined.

    • When Ronnie starts to play, it will obviously be too much for Liang. I think Ali Carter's 147 has inspired him. He wants to recoup the 80K loss in price money.

      • Wow, it looks like TSF was down for six hours - a six hours which saw Hendry and Carter move on, ROS on the brink of coming through, and Perry leading Maguire by a scant frame.

          indeed

          Hendry is through with not more than a decent display against an out of sorts Day.

          Carter battling through V Ebdon. well deserved victory.

          ROS almost through to play Hendry in the semis....should win it in the first session of tonights play.

          The Perry maguire match is finely balanced after coming off a frame early. al to play for tonight. could go to the wire

            • Thanks for the recap Stranger and Sem, it's what I missed while the forum was down.

              Interesting semis coming up tomorrow!

              • Was it really 6 hours! Yes it looks like it will be a real nailbiting match between Maguire and Perry tonight but i just fancy Perry to edge it 13-11. O Sullivan went out this morning showing everyone just why he will take all the beating! Just hope Hendry v O Sullivan will turn out to be a classic that's if Wenbo doesn't make an amazing comeback of course.

                    Liang seemed pretty effective in the first session, what happened in the second one for him to drop 6 straight frames to Ronnie?

                      he went for far too many attacking shots that never went in, and his safety / positional play wasnt great.

                      Ronnie stomped on almost all the mistakes and quickly drew away

                      • Wenbo suffers from a problem that a lot of youngsters suffer with. The condsition is known as potitus, which means that they are unable to play safetys
                        You play a long slow deadweight red to a corner pocket. As it approaches the pocket, a kamikaze woodlouse crawls out from under the cushion and makes its way across the table, conflicting with the path of the red precisely at the point the red gets there. The red, needless to say, veers off course, and the future of the woodlouse is uncertain. - The Statman

                          • That's the enigma that is Ronnie O Sullivan!

                                We should re-christen this place the Ronnie forum...

                                Perry thrown away the first two frames from what I can gather. Great 70 clearance from Maguire to take frame 17 when he was 63-0 down!
