An unbelievable finish, Hawkins must be devastated.
Thrilling to watch though, and I'm glad to see Cope through - should make for a good final tomorrow.

That was some kinda long match. Too bad the black didn't go in otherwise Barry would have won!! The final gonna be good

I think that could affect Hawkins for a while. Thats 4 semi finals he has lost now and two of them were 6-5. Unlucky Barry but well done Jamie.

Was an amzing match to watch - I had a bet on Hawkins winning 6-4 - he was home and dry! The missed brown will haunt him - and then he had a tricky chance on the pick end of the 10th frame.

So unlucky in the decider to see the black wobbling in the jaws!!!

P.S - Can someone upload the last 2 frames onto the billiard tracker site.

Kind of feel sorry for Hawkins, but then again he had several chances to win it in the final frame. Cope is good for the final.

That reslt virtually bangs the nail in the coffin for Matthew Stevens' top 16 hopes. He will be at 4000 odd points off now.

Well, Stevens does everything to copy Jimmy White. Only James Warren stayed a bit longer in the top 16.

Have you seen that match? It was incredible!!
These matches are sometimes even better than big breaks, with long positional battle, snookers, nerves.
I like those ones
