Bingham is so lucky with the run of the balls

Good to have you back RKW. You don't seem to post much these days apart from on the World championship

Long frame

Jones wins the frame and leads 10-9.

I can’t get into these semis at all…

It’s like a line up for the Gilbratar Open semi finals

I’m not blaming the guys that are left in the tournament. But players Judd and Ronnie and Maguire should’ve played a lot better.

I blame Lisowski for all of this, he peaked against Ding and then did what he always does.

I don't think the experience of Bingham is actually helping him - it's reached a point where he realises what a great chance this is to become world champion again, so it's actually having a detrimental effect on him, whereas Jones is eager and hungry because everything is in front of him, if that makes sense. Obviously when it comes to 'clinch time', if it happens for Jones in this match, that is another thing, but I don't think Bingham's previous experience is a great help to him

I know what you mean, and as you say, it's nothing against the players playing.

Even though I have backed Wilson, whoever is in the final, it's not become a 'must watch match' for me now

I don't mind this line up. Obviously I wish Judd was still in it and I am still annoyed he lost but once he's out, along with Ding, Jack and Luca I'm usually then wanting a new winner (apart from Carter)

I have watched Wilson this tournament and he has looked very good attacking and defending. He is also very good with the rest and the amount of pressure pots being missed by the rest in this tournament is alarming, so Kyren seems to have an advantage there.

There was a period where Higgins came back at him and got it back from 9-4 to 9-8. I mean that can happen, but the way he played in those frames was really worrying. If he can avoid mini sessions like that, he has a great chance.

I guess everyone will have the occasion lapses during sessions etc, but I feel Wilson can produce a level a bit higher than the rest and is just generally stronger than the others, so just a case of holding it together and producing.

I also think that are far more dangerous floaters than ever, who don't just think they can cause a first round upset, but can go deep into the tournament. I guess it's good that the dream of being world champion can be attainable for an outsider, even though the top players generally win it

Looks like 11-9 Jones

Jones wins the frame and leads 11-9. That's the first time he's had a 2 frame lead in this match.

Naaaa hope he wins comfortably.

Not often seen Bingham showing his emotions like this.

Bingham needs 4 snookers, this could go on for a while.

Getting sucked right into Jones's trap!

jimmy yeah

I think we're at a stage of the match where Jones is just head down going for finish line and Bingham is feeling it. I can imagine Jones being 1 away, a few frames ahead, freeing up Bingham for a few frames before Jones wins about 17-14 or so

this wouldn't be so bad if bingham wasn't so cack handed at laying snookers

I wish Murphy would shut up, just talking shiiiiiiite

indeed

Murphy generally annoys me, but he talks a great tactical game.............yet rarely implements it himself...

Jones 12-9 up.
