3-0 now and i hope Matthew sends Murphy packing

With a pot success of 69 so far for Murphy it does seem like a possibility. Mon Maff!

Hi Nina, anyway who cares about those reps

Hoi Wim,
well it's never nice to get negative rep, is it?

Murphy got a frame too, so it's Stevens 3 - 1 Murphy at the interval. Matthew has an advantage with the lead, I hope he doesn't lose it...

I wouldn't mind a 3 - 1 in the Maguire - Hamilton match either...
PS: just when I had said that, the score turned 2 - 2.

No Nina it isn't but don't make too much of it, some are making a national sport
of it...haha I hope you understand this last sentense because it s translated from flemish.

Looks like Murphy's going to make it 3-2. Hope Matthew manages to hold it together this year!

Stevens is playing very well at the moment....great long pots
I hope for a 7-1 at the end of this session....

EDIT (...make that a 6-2 )

[Nina]

Stevens looked good leading 4-2 (with a century), perhaps he shouldn't have taken the risk in the previous frame... Anyway, a 5-3 will be fine for now...

The Maguire - Hamilton match is indeed close...

[ferret]

4 - 4 at the interval

[missneworleans]

Maguire 5-3 Hamilton
Not bad playing some good breaks and tense fight making this match interesting!

I've been trying to get the stream for 20 mins now, where is it??

[PaulTheSoave]

This one is working. both tables on!

ps. Stevens should have capitalized on his 3-0 lead, making it at least 6-2 after the first session. I put my money on Murphy now, though I dont favour a particular player. Both class players.

I am at work and I can't connect to any of the streaming sites
what's going on in the first frame please?
thanks

[Maija]

First frame is over and done with. John Higgins made a 91 break.

ROS v Higgins 0-1

2nd frame - ROS is at the table, on a break of 29 (43 - 5).

The other table is a bit slower, still frame 1. Selby on 70, don't think it's a break.

EDIT: ROS v Higgins 1-1 (ROS break of 89)
Carter v Selby 0-1

Strange, I only get black screens now on the studavis website. Still live on BBC 2 as well.

[snookersfun]

table 2 just popped up for me...

[Maija]

Everything works perfectly here. I suppose the demand is quite high at the moment.

Bad safety from ROS, John is in and the reds are quite nicely spread for breakbuilding purposes. Hm. No. The black is sorta not very available.
