it is overkill though
You have nothing to worry about anyway, i'm not just saying it to jinx it i'm saying it because it's real and i've been right pretty much the whole way, but Trump will win the world championship, he'll go up another gear like he always does when it matters today and he'll win this session comfortably, he could of won all of yesterday's frames but he made some misses, as usual his concentration isn't fully there in the early sessions but there is nobody good enough left in the tournament to take advantage or truly punish him or build up a big lead (Like a robertson/sullivan would do).
Think he'll win the final comfortably as well, Gilbert leaves way too many chances he's worse than Wilson and Higgins if he somehow pulls it out the bag is just not elite level anymore he also misses too many chances, both of them would lose 5-6 frames in a row vs Trump in the blink of an eye.
Trump has that "acceleration" gear that only the top players have, if he's off-form he still stays in there and is level or only 1/2 behind, then he can go bang and reel off 5-6 frames in a row, a bit like MVG in Darts.
Against this level of opposition they have zero chance of beating Trump over this length of matches, you know it, i know it, everyone knows it so stop being scared
Sorry if is overkill but I just can't help it
I'm still laughing at that shot from Wilson yesterday, you know the one where he put too much back spin on so hit it up and right in the pocket instead of hitting the red these wilson and gilert guys have had a great run and fair play to them but they aint going to win the whole thing
What is Wilson doing? Thank the lord Trump is missing too, but eventually Judd will not miss
Wilson getting a bit unlucky now.
Judd leads 12-8 at the interval.
Judd wins session 5-3 to lead 14-10, last frame was a long frame, wetherbyterrier again spot on with his prediction.
Judd will win it this time
cant see higgins or gilbert beating him
would be better for higgins if he lost the semi tbh
3 final defeats in a row might break him as a player
Indeed Arsenal, unfortunately I'm going for a 17-15 win to Higgins this afternoon, hope I'm wrong of course
I think Gilbert will just about get the win
like gilbert's walk-on music
he's wife looks a bit saucy too
well done dave
higgins's fat little frame has made him such a good rest player
he has to use it more than most after all
I agree Gilberts entrance music is a tune
Intrigued to see what people's opinions are on this. Would you rather win the World Championship and be ranked in the top 8, or be world number 1. For me I'd prefer to win the world championship, being number 1 is an excellent achievement but would prefer being World Champion.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not even a contest. Nobody ever looks back at who was World Number 1, but winning the World Championship and you'll be remembered forever. Even if it is just as a pub quiz question.
This is just going to be Higgins win, you can sense it
14-14 momentum is all with Higgins
Shame of Gilbert can't hold his nerve, great chance to make the final even win the tournament
John Higgins proving that he has still got it.
Great tune from back in the day... Drunken Hobo... Crazy question... World champion every time, its like asking a batsman if they'd prefer a 1 day hundred or a test hundred.. No comparison
never wins a match easy higins does he
Just one of my friends at work said he would prefer being world number 1 over winning the world championship which I thought was odd but there you go.
16-16
Higgins will surely win this now.

I suppose being world number one means you’ve been consistently good during a certain period.
500 what a miss from higgins, gilbert big chance
