Davis vs King! Epic!

[Chris Patterson]

What a game! Amazing! Glad to see davis win! He got very nervous at the end of final frame, and even a tad emotional! Epic match till the end? What did you guys think of both players performance?

[BikiniKill]

Nailbiting stuff, but I think the better player won. King seemed to lose the drive towards the very end. Go Steve! So pleased for him.

It's over seven hours long.....

It was an epic, and shows that great snooker does not have to be great quality snooker, as both players regularly missed easy balls/got out of position easily.

Great match loved the emotion from Steve tired today stayed up late to watch and had to get up for work LOL but so pleased for Davis I am not the biggest King fan .

Mark King never appeared to settle down after he got wound up about Steve's simultaneous hit on the red & brown (that clearly wasn't when seen in slow-mo)

Match of the tournament in my opinion, not in terms of quality, but in terms of pure entertainment. Well done both players on producing a Crucible classic.

[gmg]

Well, I just have to report that I was in the Crucible audience last night for only the second time and this was one the happiest moments I've had in 26 years of supporting Steve Davis. The atmosphere was absolutely electric and my own release of tension was almost as dramatic as Steve's when he potted match ball with flailing arms and roars of sheer joy. And to think that I was only there because my planned holiday to Cyprus got cancelled amidst the current air travel chaos. Well, every cloud has a silver lining as they say. A truly magical and unforgettable day.

what a great match between the two. I thought Steve would do well and I was soo glad he went through. he put soo much effort into it all deserved the win!

i think the crowd played a big part in his performance, edging him on which built his confidence..

and I agree with what someone else said. King seemed to lose drive towards the end.
