Bahrain Champ - semi-final discussion!

[tallguy]

Is the semis best of 11 or best of 13 ?

[JiangYu]

No, No, No and No! I want Stevens in.

[tomtomclub]

A lot of Hendry support on here, I for one would prefer Stevens of the two to win!

[darrus]

Go Stephen.

[Giggity1984]

Loox like first frame to Stevens. 1-0

[Matt_2745]

Matthew gets a great break-off, cue ball on the cushion and Hendry pots a brilliant long red and holds for the black. Unfortunately he pots the black and gets a bad cannon, misses a red to the yellow pocket and Stevens comes in and takes it in one visit, 1-0.

[JiangYu]

And Steven's is back! Here's hoping to a good season and a revisit to the Top 16 for him.

[Rane]

Stevens takes first frame with a 120 break. When he plays like that, it´s really incredible, that he´s not in top 16.

[Matt_2745]

Early days but Hendry hasn't got started yet, few poor shots that he's been lucky to get away with here.

Perhaps all this expectation has got the better of him.

[Matt_2745]

Hendry has blown another good chance, Stevens in though the reds aren't easy at all, will take a few visits for someone to win this I suspect.

[Matt_2745]

Dave Hendon saying that Hendry has spent a lot of time recently watching videos of himself in the 1990's to give himself inspiration

[Matt_2745]

Weird frame this, every ball above the blue spot but Hendry has got a few points on the board. Still not playing great though, can't keep position to save his life at the moment.

Ran out of position on frame ball and is toying with taking a very tough green on to rescue it...gets it, Stevens needs a snooker.

[nickdyr]

Keep it up Matt!

Matt 2745 that is

[Giggity1984]

Stevens on a break of 26 and counting in frame 3.
