Well, what a complete collapse by Stevens. Must be the low point of his career.

I just made dinner in record time and here we go with the next rounds of snooker sessions:

Maguire v Hamilton 9-7
Carter v Selby 3-5

The... the... pundit thing just called Maguire "Stephen Murphy"

Don't let Maguire know that He would not be happy at all.

Won't say a thing - I am insulted on Mags' behalf

Both Mags and Ali Carter are off to flying starts, it seems, both on 70+ breaks. Mags is - again - en route for a 147. Kids are expensive, aren't they?

Edit I: Harrumpf! He broke down on 12 reds, 12 blacks... baaaaaaad psish. But lots of showmanship

Edit II: Aaaaaand Carter just nicked his HB of the tournament with a lovely 144.

Edit III: Am I the only one watching?!

Mags v Hamilton 11-7
Carter v Selby 5-5

Maguire is playing stunning snooker. Just a shame he isn't playing Murphy next.

[snookersfun]

12-7 amazing, with a 137!

There's a chance he can play him in final though

Hehe, indeed! So it looks like two of my fave players will be meeting in that upper-draw semi.

Mags got a 137-break to make it 12-7.

[Mitsuko]

Superb opening pot by Maguire

[snookersfun]

now that's how you finish games! Well done Stephen!

[Maija]

Mags wins the final session 4-0, the match 13-7, without Anthony Hamilton potting one ball in this last session, and only having had one decent chance at doing so.

4 centuries, one go at a max that broke down at 96 and possibly the most unanswered points in a match ever at the Crucible. I'm sorry, but I have to say it: Maguire's on fire

[cueman]

Maguire is really looking like the man to beat right now. He looks really up for the job and looks like his form is right back to when he won the UK a couple of years ago.

[missneworleans]

Incredible snooker by Stephen! He deserves to win! I think with this play he will have chance to win Higgins or O'Sullivan!

Carter 6-5 Selby
Good play but Carter leads 3-0 in this session

[Miss Walker]

Eurosport really has me furious once again - GOLFING and YACHTING in "The Wedensday Selection" sponsored by Rolex It's not live or anything, you'd think they'd be able to show it AFTER today's LIVE matches

[Maija]

'ere we go: one frame to ROS after a little missfest there.

11-6

Mon John!
