Selby doing his best to piss Ronnie off in the frame  Playing on for snookers for as long as possible. Selby should have won the frame himself ages ago but missed an easy red.

Any chance he gets he'll do it and its all to knock them out of their rhythm, unfortunately because he's so good at safety it usually works. It's more obvious when he's behind in a match as he'll bog down frames and mess with his opponents mind to gain the advantage back hence the reputation for comebacks. This long format suits his game down to a tee, can't say I enjoy watching it though so imagine what he's like to play against.

Selby really has had the run of the ball in this match, unreal 

[EastAnglianFox]

Foot on throat time Mark, playing well and grinding when needed.

 

Then somehow doesn't get over the line to go 14-9, that one could hurt.

Big frame that, just let Ronnie off massively 

[foxes_rule1978]

A very poor Ronnie, but somehow got out level in this session... tonight will be massive 

[EastAnglianFox]

How has Ronnie shared that morning, worried for tonight now as I'm sure he won't be that poor again.

I think Ronnie will be up for it knowing it is the final session, and more focused... Selby should have had him done there.

Yeah at 15-9 I think Ronnie would have been looking for an early night and downed tools tonight but can feel he's gonna come out flying tonight

Selby is like City! Both highly ranked, but whenever I watch either, they look really vulnerable to being beaten. And whenever the snooker commentator says Selby is great at escaping a snooker, he messes it up and loses the frame.

I was thinking about the Ebdon Dott final the other day. Have no idea why because it was so boring.  

Finished around 1am or something didnt it? Probably the first final I didnt stay up for.

[Nalis]

From the 2nd round onwards we've been fortunate that most matches have been nicely posed going into the final session.

 

Hope it continues into the final.

McGill Wilson is not disappointing, amazing stuff!! Shame either have to lose this, they've both shown absolute guts.

Is Ronnie's fanbase made up of 90% Definitely Maybe dads that live for the weekend and will 'stay for another just don't tell the missus!' ****ing feels it judging by the state of Twitter

McGill has been very lucky in this decider so far. One wild pot attempt, and getting out of a snooker, that have ended up completely safe.

True and just now very lucky not to pot the black. But think he's had some bad luck previously and is playing aggressively. God this decider frame is so tense!

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Love how Alan McManus called this would go to pink and black on final frame at start of the session and we're almost there now!

[Voll Blau]

Oh man this isn't nice to watch.

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Poor bastard ☹️

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Oh my god what is going on

[Facecloth]

So close!

[The Bear]

Another stroke of luck with Wilson going in off. Though to be fair that always looked like it would be a double kiss. 

 

Edit - And a lovely kiss off the green to snooker Wilson. Get your money on McGill in-play quick!!

[Facecloth]

 ridiculous!

 

I did wonder what Wilson was playing when he played that red.

[Arriba Los Zorros]

What is Kyren Wilson doing?

[rachhere]

Oops!

[kingfox]

The most bizarre decider I’ve ever seen
