Masters 2008 Commentary

Another one of those Maguire Bottle (TM) matches.

Well played Mark Selby.

Great comeback from Selby from 4-2 down, some amazing long pots from him, as well, a touching moment when he almost fell down on his knees when a red he played stayed in the jaws for ages and then considered getting in (maybe it was partly for show but nevertheless, great to watch).
Selby was due to win a decider.
Maguire was due to lose one.
I think that's what the snooker gods decided.
Yay Mark!
Also, something for all the other pros to bear in mind: did you see how much time Selby spent signing autographs? Highly commendable.

Well done Mark and Stephen(Lee), great comebacks!
Mark is winning 2nd decider in a row and had two fantastic comebacks, what a play! Great tournament so far!

[casualties]

Great match! Nice done Selby..

oh and i agree about the autographs thing... Other pro's: take note!

To be fair most of the players have stayed behind to sign autographs. Understandably Stephen Lee didn't last night and Ding signed autographs up in the foyer after his game.

well done mark and lee. I'm totally knackered today since I stayed up to see the match last night but it was amazing, there was no way not to watch it till the end.

@alex: really jealous that you could see some matches live, hope you enjoyed yourself

I meant in general, not at this particular tournament. I know sometimes it's hard, it's painful to stay even a few seconds longer in the arena when you've just lost a big match or when you've won an attrition war and you're exhausted but still...Looks great and means a lot.

ken and shaun are underway.. come on ken lad

[imy147]

shaun starts off well 79 break... woo 200 posts

[imy147]

Ken levels.. Its 1-1

[imy147]

quite a scappy frame here.. shaun is in amongst the balls now tho

[doorag]

Is Shaun back on his unsuccessful snickers diet?

[Alex0paul]

Looks like my prediction is right. Ken played brilliant against Mark and low and behold he is playing tripe tonight. Very annoying.

[Rane]

I´m very disappointed that Doherty not even tried to keep that 147 break possibility going. Off cause the blue was easier, but the frame was nearly safe and how often do he get a chance of making a 147.

Lads, can any one give me an update on the Doherty - Murphy match
