:06:23. > :06:29.His number 12 in the world. He has performed well at the Crucible, he

:06:39. > :06:39.
:06:39. > :06:47.gets better. He hasn't had the greatest of seasons. In ranking
:06:47. > :06:55.events, he has been some quarterfinals. He is a very good
:06:55. > :07:02.break-builder. He always goes for his shots. He has had a good
:07:02. > :07:10.Crucible debut three years ago. He beat Neil Robertson in the

:08:16. > :08:17.

:09:53. > :10:01.pink by Martin Gould. The first four frames here are the hardest of
:10:01. > :10:05.the season because there is such a build-up to the World Championships.

:10:56. > :10:57.
:10:57. > :11:06.an excellent chance to make a small contribution. He can win the frame

:11:16. > :12:05.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds

:12:11. > :12:18.at the Crucible, quite a long gap since qualifying. It is tough in

:13:51. > :14:16.
:14:17. > :14:21.get his first point on the board. 58. APPLAUSE. David Gilbert, 58.
:14:22. > :14:28.That was a good advert, but the main problem was that he did not
:14:28. > :14:38.get a position on this red. The fifth round favourite in the first
:14:38. > :15:00.
:15:00. > :15:10.frame. One.. APPLAUSE. That was excellent. If he can get top side
:15:10. > :15:13.
:15:13. > :15:19.of the blue with an angle. Just in between the brown and the blue. He
:15:19. > :15:28.will have to force the cannon now if he plays it. With the black
:15:28. > :15:38.being safe, he only has one to get on top of. That has not been played
:15:38. > :15:49.
:15:50. > :15:56.very well. This is tough. Nine. APPLAUSE. Excellent. This is an
:15:56. > :16:03.excellent shot. The black is just in the way to make it perfect. The
:16:03. > :16:13.black was always going to be in the way there. If he had missed the
:16:13. > :16:17.
:16:17. > :16:27.keys on the back, it would have been perfect.. Five behind. -- 35
:16:27. > :16:36.
:16:36. > :16:46.behind. He may decide to pot this. He tried to tie the game with the
:16:46. > :17:23.
:17:23. > :17:28.black, but that did not end will. Seven. APPLAUSE. Nine. There would
:17:28. > :17:35.have been at nerves when he missed the final red, but that would have
:17:35. > :17:43.settled now. 58 for David Gilbert. The first three are now safely in
:17:43. > :17:49.the bad. Martin Gould had half a chance to win the first frame,
:17:49. > :17:53.missing the relatively easy Pinkie in the middle. You cannot afford to
:17:53. > :18:03.miss too many of those in the tournament, otherwise you will be
:18:03. > :18:34.
:18:34. > :18:44.on your way home. A good start for David Gilbert. APPLAUSE. He has
:18:44. > :18:45.
:18:45. > :18:55.certainly taken the pot on here. A beautiful shot. APPLAUSE. That is
:18:55. > :19:03.
:19:03. > :19:13.one of his strong suits. APPLAUSE. He has a tricky blue now. That is
:19:13. > :19:14.
:19:14. > :19:24.very well played. Eight great chance now. He is unlucky if he has
:19:24. > :19:26.
:19:26. > :19:35.come straight. 1mm out. And the fact that he is straight it - she
:19:35. > :19:43.cannot get on to the black nicely. APPLAUSE.. He has played that just
:19:43. > :19:49.about as well as he could have. The first read, you often hear me say
:19:49. > :19:53.on commentary, you get what you deserve. And that first read
:19:53. > :20:03.deserved to score heavily. Very unlucky to have caught the jaw of
:20:03. > :20:03.
:20:03. > :21:18.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:21:18. > :21:23.the middle pocket. Prime position. 15. 22. 23. 30. 31. APPLAUSE. And
:21:23. > :21:33.slightly awkward with that red behind the black for position.
:21:33. > :21:38.
:21:38. > :21:48.Maybe he can just go past it. That is quite good. 38. He will make his
:21:48. > :21:53.
:21:53. > :22:00.mark on this frame, after missing his mark on the first frame.
:22:00. > :22:05.The fact that he is hampered, means he may have to take a so roll for
:22:05. > :22:15.the back. That is great if you put it, but that will be more difficult
:22:15. > :22:15.
:22:16. > :22:21.than he would like. APPLAUSE.. Crucible is a tight Rome and
:22:21. > :22:29.sometimes it is difficult to get the camera directly behind the shot.
:22:29. > :22:39.-- a tight room. Both players appear to be going nicely from what
:22:39. > :22:40.
:22:40. > :22:45.I have seen so far. Yes, give them time, they start to fail. Everybody
:22:45. > :22:52.else does, so why shouldn't they? It has been very good, hasn't it,
:22:52. > :22:58.from both players? As you said, if you do not get started it will be a
:22:58. > :23:08.hard grind out there. With the start, we aren't making for a good
:23:08. > :23:09.
:23:09. > :23:19.match. APPLAUSE.. He is OK there. A little too thick. He is preaching
:23:19. > :23:21.
:23:21. > :23:26.or awkwardly. A straightforward run through to the black. 55. This game
:23:26. > :23:32.is all about fractions. But it comes to inches further down, it is
:23:32. > :23:37.easy to get on to the next read. He has just finished in betwixt and in
:23:37. > :23:45.between. You could easily go between them, but then nothing pots
:23:45. > :23:51.in this corner. He played through the gap and to now he is on a red.
:23:51. > :23:56.The top one of those three will pot into the corner but he will be
:23:56. > :24:03.taking the white up to the other end off the table. You have to be
:24:03. > :24:13.careful always to leave the right angle on the Blackheath you can. --
:24:13. > :24:14.
:24:14. > :24:22.on the black ball if you can. am a little surprised that he
:24:22. > :24:31.played it to hold it. This is a real chance for David Gilbert to
:24:31. > :24:37.get back into this frame. It is the same of Storey. S Martin Gould had
:24:37. > :24:42.been left that read by David Gilbert he would have had ten out
:24:42. > :24:50.of ten. But because it went the other way he did not forgive
:24:50. > :24:58.himself for it. If you have not got a clear mind in this game, you are
:24:58. > :25:05.any bodies. This is the standard this year - all the players are in
:25:05. > :25:10.form. The fact that you are 62 in front is not enough. If it wasn't
:25:10. > :25:20.the World Championship by would say he was favourite to win the frame,
:25:20. > :25:22.
:25:22. > :25:31.anti- is 62 behind. APPLAUSE.. Their reaction on the wide. -- on
:25:31. > :25:41.the white ball. That little flick, 62 points could disappear very
:25:41. > :25:41.
:25:41. > :27:07.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:27:07. > :27:13.quickly. 8.9. 15. 16. 23. 24. 29. He has made this look easy so far,
:27:13. > :27:23.but it is the first time he has slipped out of position slightly.
:27:23. > :27:26.
:27:26. > :27:36.Not at an angle on this black. Just off straight - not way you want to
:27:36. > :27:38.
:27:38. > :27:48.be. This will be some shot. APPLAUSE.. He struck that well.
:27:48. > :28:00.
:28:00. > :28:06.is looking very impressive in the balls. 37. 0 APPLAUSE. 38. That
:28:06. > :28:13.makes getting on to the yellow easy. He does not want to risk playing
:28:13. > :28:21.for the blue. Ideally, you would like to get on the green or brown
:28:21. > :28:31.dead straight in the opposite corner. I would not be playing for
:28:31. > :28:39.the pink, definitely green or brown. If you get on the pink dead
:28:39. > :28:49.straight, it is not straightforward. He could have been a little
:28:49. > :28:51.
:28:51. > :29:01.careless there, playing for the pink. We are in the frame now.
:29:01. > :29:07.
:29:07. > :29:15.APPLAUSE.. 52. 54. He has had a couple of difficult positional
:29:15. > :29:23.shots to cope with, but this is really good. Quality staff. That
:29:23. > :29:33.Green had a look-in before it dropped. He may be feeling a little
:29:33. > :29:41.
:29:41. > :29:50.It is a vital shot, the brown. Martin Gould thinks he has a sniff
:29:50. > :29:58.of a chancier. -- chance here. Martin Gould may have a chance of
:29:58. > :30:08.dropping it. It has made a big difference. If you notice with
:30:08. > :30:08.
:30:08. > :30:18.David Gilbert he likes to put play a lot of stand and screw shots.
:30:18. > :30:32.
:30:32. > :30:37.Very well played. Martin Gould is a strong favourite in this match. We
:30:37. > :30:47.may chase your mind after that clearance from David Gilbert. --
:30:47. > :30:48.
:30:48. > :30:56.change your mind. Not a particularly good break off shot,
:30:56. > :30:59.but he is two in front. Martin Gould must now be careful. You
:30:59. > :31:09.cannot win a match in the first session, but she can put yourself
:31:09. > :31:20.
:31:20. > :31:30.in trouble. If you lose the session, make sure it is only 5-3. -- but
:31:30. > :31:57.
:31:57. > :32:03.David Gilbert will be disappointed with that effort after her that
:32:03. > :32:08.excellent clearance in the previous round. This was a safety shot here.
:32:08. > :32:18.Cutting the red way back up was not what was intended. He played it
:32:18. > :32:24.
:32:24. > :32:34.much too thick. This has been quick fire staff from both players. --
:32:34. > :32:37.
:32:37. > :32:42.stuff. It shows you how close these players are. Also, when you see
:32:42. > :32:46.David Gilbert playing like this. But watched him earlier in the
:32:46. > :32:49.qualifiers at the Sheffield Academy. He played excellent against Fergal
:32:49. > :32:57.O'Brien. He came through the qualifying school and started again
:32:57. > :33:01.now. He qualified through that system to get into the two were
:33:01. > :33:08.this year. Now he is playing at the Crucible Theatre, so there is no
:33:08. > :33:18.reason why the players cannot achieve. It cost �1,000. You have
:33:18. > :33:26.
:33:26. > :33:36.three tournaments to play. -- to play Ian. I have not played for 12
:33:36. > :33:38.
:33:38. > :33:48.years. I have not played bass frame of snooker in tortillas. Amazing. -
:33:48. > :33:53.- a frame of snooker in 12 years. Martin Gould knows that he must be
:33:53. > :34:00.a little bit more careful with the balls now. A little bit of contact
:34:00. > :34:10.and a bounce took the pace of the cue ball. He knows he cannot afford
:34:10. > :34:41.
:34:41. > :34:51.to make a frame break when he gets in. It looks like the end of break.
:34:51. > :34:55.
:34:55. > :35:02.Just that one red. He had quite a lot of room both sides. David
:35:02. > :35:06.Gilbert, who is looking despondent sitting in his chair, mentally he
:35:06. > :35:13.started so well in this match and only made one mistake and is now
:35:13. > :35:19.disappointed. Martin Gould decided to have a go at the green. You
:35:19. > :35:29.cannot blame him for that. The ITC's choice, but it could cost him.
:35:29. > :35:31.
:35:31. > :35:40.-- it is his choice. He is putting himself under pressure by losing
:35:40. > :35:50.the previous frame that he should have won. David Gilbert is having
:35:50. > :35:50.
:35:50. > :36:53.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:36:53. > :36:58.It'll be difficult here with the extension. His tips are a long way
:36:58. > :37:08.from the cue ball. He is stretching a little bit. It could go wrong
:37:08. > :37:17.
:37:17. > :37:27.this one. when will you last in a position like that? Last night,
:37:27. > :37:29.
:37:30. > :37:39.what does it matter to you? Laughter. A little camera to hold
:37:40. > :37:40.
:37:40. > :38:27.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:38:27. > :38:37.He played a position to make sure that he is that the red Centre for

:38:37. > :39:21.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:39:21. > :39:24.the front pocket. Maybe he will stop for the pink. 23. A split
:39:24. > :39:34.coming up unless there is a plant there. It looks like he was split
:39:34. > :39:39.
:39:39. > :39:49.them. He has won in the centre. He did not really catch that. If he
:39:49. > :39:50.
:39:50. > :39:55.gets this one he will open a few more reds out. But will he covered
:39:55. > :40:05.the black into the same left pocket? That is the problem. It is
:40:05. > :40:06.
:40:06. > :40:16.tricky be one in the centre. pocket is not in your eye line. He
:40:16. > :40:19.
:40:19. > :40:24.could flick of the reds to get to the black. He has missed it. David
:40:24. > :40:34.Gilbert should have won from that's it. This gives Martin Gould a

:40:34. > :41:15.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:41:15. > :41:24.chance. Just pulled up now. I do not know if any of the reds will
:41:24. > :41:34.pop. He could tried to run the blue and play for the red, he now it's
:41:34. > :41:36.
:41:36. > :41:45.to pass the green - making now needs to pass the green. He would
:41:45. > :41:55.be playing for it if it had passed the green. At close call there. He
:41:55. > :42:11.
:42:11. > :42:15.hit it very poorly. He will be glad to come back to the table. Martin
:42:15. > :42:23.Gould would now be disappointed again. It is the third time he has
:42:23. > :42:30.lost possession. The first two frames were lost. David Gow but is
:42:30. > :42:40.having a good look at the green. If it has passed Martin Gould, it is a

:44:36. > :45:12.
:45:12. > :45:22.have to avoid the cues on the green. The APPLAUSE.. He would have left
:45:22. > :45:30.that read on that his nearest the pocket. If the Queen was not there,
:45:30. > :45:35.it is a natural. But the Queen is putting him off playing it. He
:45:35. > :45:44.should be able to screw around two cushions and in between the black
:45:44. > :45:54.and the blue. He is very fortunate that it is very thick. Turned out
:45:54. > :45:55.
:45:55. > :46:02.to be an excellent safety - amazing. Played between the black and blue,
:46:02. > :46:11.between the black and the red. Martin Gould cannot see much of any
:46:11. > :46:21.of these reds. There is no safety with the black. He is playing down

:46:22. > :46:29.below the black caution now. -- cushion. He could have played that
:46:29. > :46:39.better, but not much better. It was a tough shot. He will still take

:46:47. > :46:53.the pot on. He just left it in the right corner. APPLAUSE. This is the
:46:53. > :46:56.first ballot of safety we have had in this match, into the third frame.
:46:56. > :47:06.Previously each time one player missed, the other got in and made
:47:06. > :47:17.
:47:17. > :47:24.the break. A little bit scrappy now, half chances for both players. Now
:47:24. > :47:30.he is pushing the boat out a bit. The chance was them, but if he
:47:30. > :47:34.fancied it, go for it. But if you look at the trapping of the white,
:47:34. > :47:41.it is more likely to kiss one of the balls on the way back down than
:47:41. > :47:49.miss them. If he got five or six out of ten, he is doing
:47:49. > :47:52.exceptionally well, the pot. David Gilbert is looking at this read
:47:52. > :48:00.into the black pocket as Martin Gould starts to think, should I
:48:00. > :48:09.have gone with it? He only has one possible pot on. The green is on
:48:09. > :48:17.the pocket. I cannot see it being too difficult. It is aware that, if
:48:17. > :48:23.it is played in no position, you could call it nine out of ten. If
:48:23. > :48:33.he decides to screw back full safety as well, I think it will be
:48:33. > :48:44.
:48:44. > :48:51.ten times as hard. For some reason he doesn't like it. A APPLAUSE.
:48:51. > :49:00.long as you don't try to do anything with the cue ball. He is
:49:00. > :49:10.playing a screw shot, I think, and this is very dangerous. The's.
:49:10. > :49:20.a straightforward, with the green there. Once again, a chance to go
:49:20. > :49:27.
:49:27. > :49:33.through to the front. He gets a good position here. Perfect.
:49:33. > :49:43.APPLAUSE.. The one thing he had to do then is avoid the yellow and
:49:43. > :49:58.
:49:58. > :50:04.brown on the way back. Oh APPLAUSE. That was very well played. If he
:50:04. > :50:09.did not win from here, he would never forgive himself. Three-L in
:50:09. > :50:17.front was probably beyond his wildest dreams before he started he.
:50:17. > :50:22.Martin Gould is a very good player. At one time or another he has been
:50:22. > :50:32.favourite to win every one of the three frames. That is the
:50:32. > :50:34.
:50:34. > :50:44.disappointing part. APPLAUSE.. hurts when you are knowing that you

:51:35. > :51:45.Gould was so favourite to win this match and he was in the first-round
:51:45. > :51:53.
:51:53. > :51:57.accumulators. Not looking good at the moment. 32. So, David Gilbert
:51:57. > :52:07.certainly played beautifully to win the second frame, but the other two
:52:07. > :52:11.
:52:11. > :52:21.frames have been gifted. 41. This contribution already in three
:52:21. > :52:22.
:52:22. > :52:29.frames shows you that he is scoring very heavily. 47. This could be his
:52:29. > :52:39.third break over 50. Things are locking poor form Martin Gould as
:52:39. > :52:42.
:52:42. > :52:52.David Gilbert leads by three frames to none. Martin Gould breaking off
:52:52. > :52:55.
:52:55. > :53:04.his fourth frame, desperate to win it. After the beat build up to come
:53:04. > :53:14.and play in the World Championships. To be for Neil down would make you
:53:14. > :53:18.
:53:18. > :53:25.come off feeling like you had nothing. -- four-kneeled down.
:53:25. > :53:30.Wouldn't it be wonderful if from the commentary box you could get
:53:30. > :53:35.something into the players' minds, get into their heads and see what
:53:35. > :53:43.they are thinking. It would be great for commentary, wouldn't it?
:53:43. > :53:53.I would not like to think what might and cool -- Martin Gould's
:53:53. > :53:53.
:53:53. > :53:58.mind is saying at the moment. He slipped riot through the gap and
:53:58. > :54:07.left this as an absolute certainty. This is a very poor start from
:54:07. > :54:12.Martin Gould. That is straight forward for one of these top-class
:54:12. > :54:20.players, to race into the side of the bunch. A E even if he goes to
:54:20. > :54:30.the side of the bunch, the reds at the side of the pack may have been
:54:30. > :54:40.
:54:40. > :54:50.there as a plant. So I am surprised that he played it that way.
:54:50. > :54:50.
:54:50. > :55:48.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:55:48. > :55:55.APPLAUSE. 8.9. 16. Still motoring along, David Gilbert. A 95% pop
:55:55. > :55:59.success. That is very high for the first session in the Crucible. Not
:55:59. > :56:08.too bad for David Gould, the odd mistake has cost him the frame so
:56:08. > :56:18.far. He can kick this one into the right corner. The position is not
:56:18. > :56:25.
:56:25. > :56:35.guaranteed. He cannot avoid the pack there. If he can't, play it at
:56:35. > :56:40.the pace. You can open the pack up and you have a good chance. If you
:56:41. > :56:46.do get the cannon, the white stays at the centre off the table. So
:56:46. > :56:53.give the white a chance. He is looking for a gap between the black
:56:53. > :57:03.and the back of the pack. It is only small. But he has played the
:57:03. > :57:19.
:57:19. > :57:29.gap. Sometimes you can try to be too careful. He decided on his
:57:29. > :57:37.
:57:37. > :57:44.position shot and then for got to pot the red. Six. Martin Gould,
:57:44. > :57:49.highest so far has been 60 took in the second frame and he lost it.
:57:49. > :57:55.clearance from David Gilbert. He did not play poorly, just missed
:57:55. > :58:01.the odd shot here and there. He can swing this round. He wants the red
:58:01. > :58:06.to the left of the black, absolutely dead straight. That is a
:58:06. > :58:12.pretty good shot. Unfortunately it has run on a little too much to
:58:12. > :58:18.make the cueing awkward. He will have to play the rate in the middle.
:58:18. > :58:28.He is disappointed. Getting on to the next colour from here is not
:58:28. > :58:30.
:58:30. > :58:40.easy. But when things are not going for you, things like this happen.
:58:40. > :58:41.
:58:41. > :58:50.Oh, well played. APPLAUSE. If you are 3 in front and play a round but
:58:50. > :59:00.that, you deserve applause. But three behind. That was not very
:59:00. > :59:15.
:59:15. > :59:21.good, though. He needs to be One bad shot followed by another is
:59:21. > :59:27.not recommended. He has got one red. It may go in the right corner but
:59:27. > :59:37.it is going to be a tough shot. He is looking at the brown now, swing
:59:37. > :59:46.
:59:46. > :59:54.the cue ball round the table. Fancy Really good shot. He needs to
:59:55. > :00:04.retain position now. An excellent shot, perfect on the red. Keep that
:00:05. > :00:30.
:00:30. > :00:40.He relies on this one shot to break into the pack here. If he gets a
:00:40. > :01:16.
:01:16. > :01:25.Not too sure of the five reds in The top red obviously pots. 27 in
:01:25. > :01:29.front and counting. He has been favourite in every one of the
:01:29. > :01:39.opening three frames. He is favourite again, can he make it
:01:39. > :01:39.
:01:39. > :02:21.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:02:21. > :02:28.Very optimistic to get into that pack of four reds. To get on to 55
:02:28. > :02:35.per. It takes him 33 points in front. It is a good lead, but 59
:02:35. > :02:45.left on the table. Tight on the cushion, behind the green would be
:02:45. > :02:50.
:02:50. > :03:00.perfect. 55 his pretty good. APPLAUSE. Just the safety for Dave
:03:00. > :03:28.
:03:28. > :03:35.Gilbert. He has yet to get a frame He is not looking to pot this, he
:03:36. > :03:45.is looking to play a safety off the edge of it. A bit risky. He caught
:03:46. > :03:48.
:03:48. > :03:53.the brown. The red will go here for Martin Gould. Into the left corner.
:03:53. > :03:59.I did not see the value of playing that, he had a straightforward
:03:59. > :04:06.safety off the other three reds. is one of the shots that if you
:04:06. > :04:11.miss it, you stick them up. APPLAUSE. He will be pleased to see
:04:11. > :04:16.that one going. Where the frames have gone so far, that was not
:04:16. > :04:25.straightforward, but pot. He has finished around the black. It is
:04:25. > :04:35.just off straight. Obviously, these reds, one of them pots in the
:04:35. > :04:42.
:04:42. > :04:52.Took the risk of playing it in the corner. Just a fraction too hard if
:04:52. > :04:59.
:04:59. > :05:09.you want to be ultra critical but A vastly important red. Black
:05:09. > :05:12.
:05:12. > :05:20.Good effort from Martin Gould. He is under pressure, 3-0 behind. He
:05:20. > :05:26.has had chances early in this frame. Seems to be getting to the ball a
:05:26. > :05:30.little better now. He was a bit tense when he was 2-0 behind. Did
:05:30. > :05:36.not quite get the work on the cue ball and you can slip out of
:05:36. > :05:46.position. And leave yourself with a succession of difficult shot rather
:05:46. > :05:49.
:05:49. > :05:59.than easy ones. A kick to finish it off. A APPLAUSE. David Gilbert has
:05:59. > :06:20.
:06:20. > :06:26.Disappointing the safety shots. He has played a lot of negative safety
:06:26. > :06:30.shots. This is his second time at the Crucible. For some reason, many
:06:30. > :06:40.players cannot think the same way at the Crucible than they do in the
:06:40. > :06:41.
:06:41. > :06:49.qualifying matches. He is asking for a second opinion. The at his
:06:49. > :06:54.way it was. It is not bad. We can look down the line. I did not think
:06:54. > :06:58.you can see them. The problem with the shot he was thinking of playing
:06:58. > :07:03.off the cushion, he maybe playing off the cushion first, if he missed
:07:03. > :07:08.the red, he would have hit the black, if you got that close and
:07:08. > :07:14.then missed. But if he played to the right of the black, you have a
:07:14. > :07:22.better angle. If the schemes i we one of them, he is going to get the
:07:22. > :07:27.white down the table. That looks a slightly better position for him to
:07:27. > :07:37.see the red. It is a shame, because that is not David's fault that the
:07:37. > :07:59.
:07:59. > :08:06.He somehow has to move the red away from the pocket. It is key to get
:08:06. > :08:14.the red away from the pocket. APPLAUSE. Positive, direct. I think
:08:14. > :08:21.that is a fair result. He got away with it with being able to see the
:08:21. > :08:26.red the second time. Martin Gould has the chance of scoring another
:08:26. > :08:33.frame back. But the angle he has left himself on the red, it is
:08:34. > :08:43.risky to play for the black. He should play for the blue or yellow.
:08:44. > :09:14.
:09:14. > :09:24.He has played for the black. Risky, A good recovery here. Perfect on
:09:24. > :09:26.
:09:26. > :09:36.In the longest frame of the match so far, coming up to the 30-minute
:09:36. > :09:45.
:09:45. > :09:55.mark. The first frame we have not Green is off his spot if he gets
:09:55. > :10:02.
:10:02. > :10:07.that far. He can drop it in the He is not hitting the ball as he
:10:07. > :10:12.once did. He is well short of the blue. The fact that the green is
:10:12. > :10:16.off its spot makes the blue a lot easier. He could have gone right
:10:16. > :10:26.over the green spot with the path of the cue ball, and back over the
:10:26. > :10:32.
:10:32. > :10:39.He has played that nicely. APPLAUSE. He has got a nice angle
:10:39. > :10:44.to get onto the green. So the yellow will put the points all
:10:44. > :10:51.square. Up to and including the pink. Get right back into this
:10:51. > :10:58.opening session. He is not hitting the ball well at the moment, Martin
:10:58. > :11:03.Gould. When you are not hitting the ball as you one to, but you are
:11:03. > :11:09.going to lose position. In the next shot, you put a bit more action
:11:09. > :11:19.into the cue action, which is the wrong way around. Well done, sir.
:11:19. > :11:23.
:11:23. > :11:27.Very brave shot. A APPLAUSE. It is going to win him the frame. To play
:11:27. > :11:32.the double that way, not too many players would have played that.
:11:32. > :11:42.Very well done Martin Gould. Saying that, it leaves up to and including
:11:42. > :12:06.
:12:07. > :12:13.A very scrappy fifth frame. But Martin Gould has clawed his way
:12:13. > :12:23.back into this game, having lost the first three frames. He has now
:12:23. > :12:33.won the previous two. He is at 55 and 51 at the two he has won. He
:12:33. > :12:50.
:12:50. > :13:00.Three more frames in this session. Dave Gilbert needs to take at least
:13:00. > :13:00.
:13:00. > :13:55.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:13:55. > :14:05.ball has finished, it could have been anywhere. He looks like it is
:14:05. > :14:08.
:14:08. > :14:18.very tight getting past the black ball to the red ball. You can see
:14:18. > :14:22.
:14:22. > :14:26.plenty of it, really. He played it well. Martin Gould usually has an
:14:26. > :14:36.extra long pot and he would take this on but I do not see how he can
:14:36. > :14:42.
:14:42. > :14:52.avoid the Blackpool. -- black. Sometimes, you have no choice. He
:14:52. > :14:54.
:14:54. > :14:59.knows he will be likely to be in trouble after the next shot. When
:14:59. > :15:09.we say negative safety, we mean that he is not really trapping his
:15:09. > :15:14.
:15:14. > :15:22.opponent. It is not really a negative shot selection. He does
:15:22. > :15:32.not really look through his glasses. Perhaps he does not like them. He
:15:32. > :15:32.
:15:32. > :15:36.doesn't half pot well, glasses or not. Long-distance shots... It is
:15:36. > :15:46.amazing. I think he's sites it before he gets down to make the
:15:46. > :16:01.
:16:02. > :16:09.shot, but he is amazing. Quite risky, that one.
:16:09. > :16:17.He has a beautiful cue. Quite a long backswing and he goes
:16:17. > :16:23.through the ball very smoothly. It goes all the way back - 10 or 11
:16:23. > :16:30.inches. But he does not rush the delivery and it is nice to see a
:16:30. > :16:40.young player like him, who has been on the circuit a few years, you
:16:40. > :16:42.
:16:42. > :16:47.have got to keep trying. You have always got a chance.
:16:47. > :16:51.Very easy for these players to lose their sense of self-belief after a
:16:52. > :17:01.few defeats. You can go into a match almost expecting to lose and
:17:02. > :17:17.
:17:17. > :17:27.then it is very difficult. That was well thought out. Just nudging the
:17:27. > :18:06.
:18:06. > :18:14.one turned out all right. He is in a position where he can
:18:14. > :18:19.still spot it. However, he may require that long rest. Gone are
:18:19. > :18:25.the days when you used to have the long cue at the side of the table.
:18:25. > :18:35.It is more like an ornament now. I never used them, really. You were
:18:35. > :18:35.
:18:35. > :19:17.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:19:17. > :19:25.the one who was always out of position. (LAUGHS). Jim was the
:19:25. > :19:31.only player I ever saw a play with copious amounts of side. He was a
:19:31. > :19:37.great side player. I do not think Dave played like that. He played on
:19:37. > :19:47.the other two. He would have a quick look to see if the ball had
:19:47. > :20:09.
:20:09. > :20:15.gone after playing the shot. Usually, it is the best of nine.
:20:15. > :20:25.Usually, it evens itself out. So far, David Stevens has had a good
:20:25. > :20:31.
:20:31. > :20:40.run. I do not believe in loser's luck
:20:40. > :20:45.unless it is a fluke on the last black. As you know, if you feel
:20:46. > :20:50.like luck is going against you, as we all do when we are out there,
:20:51. > :21:00.when you feel like that, the luck usually does go against you. He is
:21:01. > :21:05.
:21:05. > :21:10.amazing, isn't it? -- it is amazing. We are seeing
:21:10. > :21:18.another twist in this match. Martin Gould are one or two frames and he
:21:18. > :21:26.looked shaky. But now he is looking comfortable again. He does not look
:21:26. > :21:33.like he will miss anything. He had an excellent angle on the previous
:21:33. > :21:38.ball. This time, it is not as good an angle. If he plays the blue ball
:21:38. > :21:48.into the middle, I wonder if it will lock a red into the right-hand
:21:48. > :21:52.
:21:52. > :22:02.corner? If it is a plant, he will play for the plant. He will
:22:02. > :22:02.
:22:02. > :22:12.certainly play the cannon. Oh, dear. That is another piece of good
:22:12. > :22:13.
:22:13. > :22:23.fortune. Three massive strokes in this break so far.
:22:23. > :22:30.Absolutely perfect. You can only win you one frame. One
:22:30. > :22:39.of the duties of snooker is that once you win or lose, you start
:22:39. > :22:43.again. -- one of the beauties. He could have done with a slight angle
:22:43. > :22:53.on that one. Possibly dislodging some of those... I do not know if
:22:53. > :22:53.
:22:53. > :23:52.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:23:52. > :24:02.any of them will go. Two straight He has two red Bulls yet to play
:24:02. > :24:02.
:24:02. > :24:48.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:24:48. > :24:58.safe in this frame. Martin knows he really must win the last two frames
:24:58. > :25:09.
:25:09. > :25:19.to come out of this session. There are a couple of plants. He can take
:25:19. > :25:25.
:25:25. > :25:35.the risk if he wants to. As long as the red one goes in, Martin Gould
:25:35. > :25:35.
:25:35. > :26:56.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:26:56. > :27:04.will concede. Not quite! It looks so he can afford to miss once and
:27:04. > :27:07.Martin Gould will still require a snooker. He has got to guarantee
:27:08. > :27:14.him hitting the road the first time. But to see it done from this
:27:14. > :27:24.position... Once again, we see him off on the table. That was a good
:27:24. > :27:30.attend to. He will not get anything for it, however.
:27:30. > :27:35.A few minutes ago, we set that it looked all over. But now Martin
:27:35. > :27:45.Gould only requires just one snooker. Of course, the black is
:27:45. > :28:20.
:28:20. > :28:30.and he has been unlucky. You would have to get the Blackie into play,
:28:30. > :28:35.
:28:35. > :28:45.otherwise you would require two sneakers again -- snookers again.
:28:45. > :28:58.
:28:58. > :29:03.If he misses it, he will concede, I think. Well done. APPLAUSE.
:29:03. > :29:13.needs one snooker to tie now, but again, he would have to pot the
:29:13. > :29:23.
:29:23. > :29:31.again, he would have to pot the black. He has left Dave Gilbert a
:29:31. > :29:35.chance, but a very difficult shot away from the same cushion. I do
:29:36. > :29:45.not know why, but your shots get worse when you are protecting the
:29:46. > :29:50.
:29:50. > :30:00.lead. He has brought the red into play. APPLAUSE. Martin Gould has a

:32:28. > :32:33.cannot afford to lose both of them. A good exhibition shot, there. Like

:35:37. > :35:45.it. After the East safety shot he played earlier on this is the first
:35:45. > :35:49.one he has played really. It was such a bad safety shot. Martin is

:35:59. > :36:09.
:36:09. > :36:18.distance. -- a middle-distance and a long distance. After that good
:36:18. > :36:25.positional shot this is another good chance for David Gilbert. He
:36:25. > :36:35.has made six breaks over 50 in this match. APPLAUSE. That is pretty
:36:35. > :36:44.
:36:44. > :36:54.good stuff. Of course you have a string in your step when you are in

:37:51. > :38:01.chance is clear-cut. Dave just has to carry on with his thoughts as
:38:01. > :38:18.
:38:18. > :38:25.they have been throughout the match. He would like that one back again.
:38:25. > :38:33.Not a difficult cannon that one. He will be disappointed. He will be
:38:33. > :38:43.forced to take a colour on the cause of the red in the bog area.
:38:43. > :38:50.APPLAUSE. How good is that. In the circumstances, one of the best
:38:50. > :38:53.shots so far in the match. Committed himself fully. He could
:38:53. > :39:03.to win in the frame or at least give him a very good chance to win
:39:03. > :39:41.
:39:41. > :39:45.it. APPLAUSE. He has had some interesting positions on shots. You
:39:45. > :39:55.do not want to be playing these at this stage, but if he gets on a red
:39:55. > :40:00.
:40:00. > :40:10.he should win the frame. It has gone in and he should win the frame
:40:10. > :40:26.
:40:26. > :40:35.again now. APPLAUSE. He has got to make sure he is higher up on the
:40:35. > :40:40.blue. That is pretty good. He hit that with a lot of backspin but he
:40:40. > :40:50.did it with the cue very slowly to halt the cue ball. That was a nice

:41:20. > :41:27.bring the black back in to play and then lost position after potting a

:41:54. > :42:02.
:42:02. > :42:07.red now he will be six-tomb' in front. -- 6-2. Amazing. He Pot's
:42:07. > :42:17.all those good shots and misses the red light that when he is safe. So
:42:17. > :42:29.
:42:29. > :42:35.once again he has given Martin Gould a glimmer of hope. It is
:42:35. > :42:42.funny how you get patterns in matches and so far in this match
:42:42. > :42:47.one player has got to the winning position and has missed a ball.
:42:47. > :42:57.This has been a pot safety shot and given Marton a very good chance to
:42:57. > :43:01.
:43:01. > :43:11.get on to the black. APPLAUSE. Ideally he would like to put all
:43:11. > :43:38.
:43:38. > :43:45.the Reds, apart from the one near the pink. Take the cue ball pass
:43:45. > :43:50.that read. If he is trying to get a snooker on off right behind the
:43:50. > :44:00.pink, he will have to leave himself a good angle on the black. He has
:44:00. > :44:12.
:44:12. > :44:22.done that. Well, well. What an They fall pocket than to play in
:44:22. > :44:24.
:44:24. > :44:31.two. Very disappointed. -- a full pocket there to play in two. I'm
:44:31. > :44:41.afraid the frames were running away from David Gilbert. He goes four
:44:41. > :44:43.
:44:43. > :44:53.frames in front. The final frame of this session. David Gould to break.
:44:53. > :45:08.
:45:08. > :45:16.-- Martin Gould. David Gilbert must win this final frame of the session.
:45:16. > :45:20.That has been the story of the match so far. So close, but so
:45:20. > :45:30.faraway in many respects. A lot of the important shots in this match
:45:30. > :46:00.
:46:00. > :46:09.he has not made. It must be hurting It is amazing what happens. It has
:46:09. > :46:19.found the gap between the reds. It Fischer's virtually dead straight.
:46:19. > :46:19.
:46:19. > :47:02.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:47:02. > :47:08.-- it finishes. He is in the game He is dominating the match now, he
:47:08. > :47:15.is having a lot of table time. 60% against 40% for Martin Gould. That
:47:15. > :47:20.is quite a big difference. The game gets easier, of course, the more
:47:20. > :47:24.you are on the table scoring. It is harder when you're on your seat
:47:24. > :47:34.watching the other guys scoring when you a chance comes along it is
:47:34. > :47:35.
:47:35. > :47:45.a more difficult chance because you have no rhythm. He has very much so
:47:45. > :47:49.
:47:49. > :47:56.been impressive today. Martin Gould was one of the first players seeded
:47:56. > :48:00.number 12 against an unseeded player. We thought that Martin
:48:00. > :48:08.Gould was almost a certainty to win the match. As you can see today,
:48:08. > :48:18.everyone who is a pro at the moment can play so well. As little
:48:18. > :48:19.
:48:19. > :48:29.surprise that did not going then. - - that it did not go in then. It
:48:29. > :48:49.
:48:49. > :48:55.took her outside of the three reds David Gilbert 25. I think he played
:48:55. > :49:02.that with a touch of side to touch the red. It did not work out. Once
:49:02. > :49:07.again, he has left it on. You would think he bump the red for a starter.
:49:07. > :49:17.It has not gone his way. It is often the case when you do not play
:49:17. > :49:17.
:49:17. > :50:12.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 109 seconds
:50:12. > :50:18.Once again a poor land from David Gilbert. Very well played and very
:50:18. > :50:28.much on their keep. He committed himself fully to be shot. He
:50:28. > :50:31.
:50:31. > :50:40.deserved a bit of luck there. was on the blue quite nicely. He
:50:40. > :50:47.gets quite a lot of those blues a lot of the time. It is amazing how
:50:47. > :50:57.your mind works. If he had have been leading, that blue would have
:50:57. > :51:09.
:51:09. > :51:14.been a certainty. It just shows you what part nerves play. Yes, you can
:51:14. > :51:20.say to take the blue one. If it is against the grain, you should not
:51:20. > :51:30.take it on. No-one is telling him to take it on. -- against that
:51:30. > :51:36.green. Patience and self-control is needed at the Crucible to become a
:51:36. > :51:46.winner. It is a long period of time, 17 days. You will have your good
:51:46. > :52:01.
:52:01. > :52:07.and bad times. He has not gone on the blue, he can play the brown.
:52:07. > :52:12.think that at this stage, there is a little bit of value to take it on.
:52:12. > :52:22.He could get nicely hidden behind the blue. He should not play the
:52:22. > :52:25.
:52:25. > :52:32.safety shot. If he played the yellow with the rest, you would
:52:32. > :52:42.think he would get it in nine times out of ten. It is any steep -- easy
:52:42. > :53:07.
:53:07. > :53:11.safety shot to get in behind the It is amazing, isn't it? He knows
:53:11. > :53:20.that that was a chance to win the frame and put himself in a position
:53:20. > :53:23.where it would be impossible to move it -- lose the match. He has
:53:23. > :53:33.the frame in his grasp a couple of times today and easily missed the
:53:33. > :53:39.
:53:39. > :53:49.shot. -- he has had. David Gilbert, of course, his best at the drank
:53:49. > :53:51.
:53:51. > :54:01.was 33. He has been a pro since 2001 on and off. -- his best to
:54:01. > :54:13.
:54:13. > :54:23.rank was 43. A chance for Martin Gould. It is not great. It was a
:54:23. > :54:34.
:54:34. > :54:38.good part. A tricky position shot off the blue. I'm not sure that
:54:38. > :54:48.read he played for, but he is going for the one to the right of the
:54:48. > :55:04.
:55:04. > :55:14.black. -- were not read he played It looks like he's taking it on.
:55:14. > :55:29.
:55:29. > :55:39.Here we use that to travel. -- he will use. Quite a few wins at these
:55:39. > :55:48.
:55:48. > :55:58.frame. It will be some achievement if he can win these. He would be
:55:58. > :56:09.
:56:09. > :56:19.experienced here at 11 -5 in front. When he won back on that situation,
:56:19. > :56:23.
:56:23. > :56:33.obviously, he lost 8-1. It has sold happened here over the years.
:56:33. > :56:35.
:56:35. > :56:45.Goodness me, I have seen some matches. Matthew Stevens was 11 -5
:56:45. > :56:48.
:56:48. > :56:58.in front and lost. Many players have been in front and us lost. --
:56:58. > :57:03.
:57:03. > :57:07.ended up losing. But the final black in. -- got. This has been a
:57:07. > :57:14.good performance by Martin Gould. He has not been in position until
:57:14. > :57:24.now. This Arty really is to leave an ankle on the reds to have a
:57:24. > :57:33.
:57:33. > :57:43.cushion. -- the angle he. He would carefully be moving the red out. It
:57:43. > :57:43.
:57:43. > :57:53.is not good. It was a very big target from that position to bring
:57:53. > :57:58.
:57:58. > :58:08.be read into play. You need to be inside the red, for example,
:58:08. > :58:14.
:58:14. > :58:24.cushioned at the ankle. -- ankle. With Martin Gould, you never know.
:58:24. > :58:29.
:58:29. > :58:39.He is 25 in front. We will see if he can pass the aloe. -- angle,
:58:39. > :58:46.
:58:46. > :58:56.yellow. He got second prize there, a kiss on the green. Every frame in
:58:56. > :59:12.
:59:12. > :59:22.the session is at a 50 above. Very good snooker. I'm not sure what he
:59:22. > :59:31.
:59:31. > :59:41.was doing there. Surely, he is not taking be read on. -- the red on.
:59:41. > :59:45.
