Welsh Open 2009 - quarter-final discussion!

never would've though Joe would be leading 3-1 at the mid-session interval.

I've just had 3 consectutive trebles up in the last couple of days winning £30 - £40 from £6 bets.
Maguire played well to come back against Ding, but I backed Swail as Maguire is inconsistent and Swail has looked focused this week. It would be a surprise, but not a huge one - Swail was 10/3 at bookies, which was much too large I thought.
(a bit like Robertson yesterday was a bit of an outsider against Higgins, but I fancied Robertson for that one and Fu against O'Sullivan is always worth backing, so the bookies do get it wrong sometimes.)

No, i wouldnt either. He will have no comeback to fight now. He might have to go 3-4 down now, before he can start playing again.

That's different to what it says here: http://prosnookerblog.com/2009/02/20...ule/#more-5521

Do you know anywhere we can watch the 10:00am match?

Yeah that's my bad, read it on another site yesterday saying that it was as in the order of the draw from top to bottom but that's not the case. Amended now.

I hope Maguire will win it.
Can he back again from 2-4?
3-4 at the moment.

he is certainly capable, but i got a feeling it's going to be Joe's day today..

Just switched on. What's wrong with Joe's arm?

i think he pulled a muscle, he was playing a shot where he had to bridge over a pack of reds when he hurt it, he looks to be in a bit of pain but dosent seem to be affecting his play too badly.

[Forman]

its not looking good for maguire, needs 2 snookers to stay in the match with 5 colors left
EDIT mags needs the last 3 colors for a respot

doesn't look as if it's going to hinder him too much..
