:00:43. > :00:47.Hello and welcome to the final Snooker Extra up the 2013 et faire
:00:47. > :00:53.World Snooker Championship. Her first match is between Shaun Murphy
:00:53. > :01:03.and Judd Trump. Shaun Murphy won it in 2005 and Judd Trump aiming to
:01:03. > :01:09.
:01:09. > :01:17.win it for the first time. We join DENNIS TAYLOR: It used Judd Trump
:01:17. > :01:27.to break off. -- it he's just a Trump. As always, a fantastic
:01:27. > :01:27.
:01:27. > :01:37.atmosphere in the Crucible Theatre. He has let that possible long reds
:01:37. > :01:57.
:01:57. > :02:07.Wrong ball. That is not the start you want. He just hit that all
:02:07. > :02:21.
:02:21. > :02:31.wrong. STEVE DAVIS: Yes, he was When he was 8-3 down, the first
:02:31. > :02:31.
:02:31. > :03:33.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 62 seconds
:03:33. > :03:38.three, Shaun Murphy only scored one. That is a tough shot to get right,
:03:38. > :03:44.potting the black and brushing across the face of the red. Getting
:03:44. > :03:50.them lined up as quite difficult. Nicely struck!
:03:50. > :03:59.APPLAUSE. With his cue power, he could decide
:03:59. > :04:05.to go into them here. Look at the action on the cue ball! Too much!
:04:05. > :04:12.It really took off once it hit the reds. Delayed action. Colliding
:04:12. > :04:20.into the reds and finally breaking free. That is a very risky red into
:04:20. > :04:30.the middle pocket. It looks easy -- easier on the television than it
:04:30. > :04:35.
:04:35. > :04:40.I don't blame him for that. Some of his tactical play has been very
:04:41. > :04:48.good throughout this year's World Championship. I was talking to John
:04:48. > :04:51.Parrott this morning. His assessment walls that perhaps Shaun
:04:51. > :05:01.let Judd Trump in likely yesterday in the tactical department. He
:05:01. > :05:19.
:05:19. > :05:25.Well, that is a bit better. That is a very good safety. Judd Trump was
:05:25. > :05:35.matching Sean, and then one stage his safety success rate was even
:05:35. > :05:40.
:05:40. > :05:44.He is still one point ahead of Shaun in the safety success rate in
:05:44. > :05:49.the tournament. And you would not expect that. He has worked on his
:05:49. > :05:56.tactical game. I think Judd Trump has realised that he can just pop
:05:56. > :06:02.his way to becoming world champion. He is so exciting to watch, but if
:06:03. > :06:12.he improves and the tactical department, watch out everybody! --
:06:13. > :06:41.
:06:41. > :06:51.He may have to play off one of these two reds on the left of the
:06:51. > :07:04.
:07:04. > :07:11.APPLAUSE. That was a bonus! He was trying to
:07:11. > :07:21.make sure that the cue ball went back on to the baulk area, but it
:07:21. > :07:22.
:07:22. > :07:26.went in the pocket! That was a bonus! Years back we used to have
:07:26. > :07:36.shot at the championship quizzes, competitions. I think that would
:07:36. > :07:57.
:07:57. > :08:01.Yes, we use the definition now green pocket and yellow pocket.
:08:01. > :08:06.That would be the green pockets, the yellow pocket and the other
:08:06. > :08:12.side of the table. The black pocket is were you would normally pot the
:08:12. > :08:19.black. We normally talk about top of the table play, where the black
:08:19. > :08:23.case, but on your screen today's at the bottom. -- but when your
:08:23. > :08:33.screens, it is at the bottom. It does get a little bit confusing
:08:33. > :08:54.
:08:54. > :09:04.That red into the middle pocket Books easy on TV. You think, why
:09:04. > :09:11.
:09:11. > :09:16.Is he going for its? That was straightforward, Steve! That was a
:09:16. > :09:26.good pot, but it would he put the cue ball. He had a little bit of
:09:26. > :09:36.safety in mind, also. But behind the green. -- up behind the green.
:09:36. > :09:38.
:09:38. > :09:42.He has played a good hard frame so far. This side of the pack of reds
:09:42. > :09:50.on the right hand side would hopefully be an area that Shaun
:09:50. > :10:00.Murphy could nestle into. I'm not sure he can actually get to that,
:10:00. > :10:30.
:10:30. > :10:40.though. He needs to catch this one She made that look very easy. Shaun
:10:40. > :10:51.
:10:51. > :11:01.It is not bad for the cue ball has finished. I think he can get to the
:11:01. > :11:17.
:11:17. > :11:22.When he is on fire, he can pot If the ground does not go, he is
:11:22. > :11:29.that behind the brown again. He is dominating this opening frame, with
:11:29. > :11:35.some good tactical play, which you might not expect of him. Not his
:11:35. > :11:39.favoured method. As you do your apprenticeship in this game, it is
:11:39. > :11:46.your job to get the balance right. He seems to be doing a very good
:11:46. > :11:50.job. He would love to get in behind the green, but he may not have an
:11:50. > :11:55.angle for that. He could drop on the yellow and David Dunn Lockwood
:11:55. > :12:02.shot. You don't always have to get a snooker. The brown will pot, but
:12:02. > :12:12.it is the wrong angle. He could push the brown up close to the
:12:12. > :12:19.
:12:19. > :12:26.He judged the speed at that very well. He wanted to make sure the
:12:26. > :12:36.brown went past the middle pocket, he couldn't risk leaving it over
:12:36. > :12:43.
:12:43. > :12:52.the pocket. There would be no point Surely it is not a three-ball
:12:52. > :13:02.plant! I don't think it will be. She is looking at it. Not quite. --
:13:02. > :13:10.
:13:10. > :13:16.Eight don't know if he could squeeze that plants, the way it is
:13:16. > :13:21.sitting. You can sometimes make the ankle with squeezing it. That would
:13:21. > :13:31.probably straighten up a fraction, but I don't think he was able to
:13:31. > :13:45.
:13:45. > :13:50.see enough of the red in the first Judd Trump has certainly started
:13:50. > :13:58.well here, and it is not all about his putting. His tactical play has
:13:58. > :14:08.been superb. She has 43 points advantage, with more to come, with

:15:18. > :15:22.the yellow, brown and black safe, Attempting to put the blue safe as
:15:22. > :15:27.well! If he does get a chance, Shaun Murphy, there will be no
:15:27. > :15:37.colours available. It is like the young Steve Davis in the way Judd
:15:37. > :16:11.
:16:11. > :16:20.Just a little bit on the thick side, that time. Shaun has not come to
:16:21. > :16:30.have a look at this is a plant. So, we assume it is not on. He has lots
:16:31. > :16:51.
:16:51. > :17:01.How unlucky is that? He played the positive shot. To hit this middle
:17:01. > :17:04.
:17:04. > :17:10.red and smoke yourself? That is so It would be some shock to try and
:17:10. > :17:17.get the brown and black out and then take the cue ball down the
:17:17. > :17:27.table. He has got to try and open the frame up, but it is very risky.
:17:27. > :17:36.
:17:36. > :17:46.He will be concentrating on the That has got one of the colours
:17:46. > :17:58.
:17:58. > :18:08.The first real mistake from Judd Trump, he caught it a bit thick.
:18:08. > :18:10.
:18:10. > :18:20.Just about got away with it. Just over five hours for the 16 frames.
:18:20. > :18:52.
:18:52. > :19:02.It tends to average out at about 20 What a shot! How well did he time
:19:02. > :19:03.
:19:03. > :19:09.this? It stops in Enfys is back -- and then spins back. Great shot! I
:19:09. > :19:19.thought he was going in the middle pocket! This should be the end of
:19:19. > :19:25.
:19:25. > :19:31.Well, we have had a little bit of everything from Judd Trump in this
:19:31. > :19:41.opening frame. We had that fabulous long pot, and also some very good
:19:41. > :19:43.
:19:43. > :19:53.tactical play. Yes, he had problems against Marco Fu early in the match,
:19:53. > :19:54.
:19:54. > :20:03.but once he got into his stride, got off the leash. Do you think
:20:03. > :20:13.that pink rolled off the bits?! is very tough to keep them under
:20:13. > :20:26.
:20:26. > :20:36.wraps for a whole match, -- to keep Even Judd Trump can't put this
:20:36. > :20:36.
:20:36. > :21:20.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 62 seconds
:21:20. > :21:26.Well, that best possible shot -- Of course you can see enough of the
:21:26. > :21:35.red! Is there a safe place on the table when Judd Trump starts
:21:35. > :21:40.knocking the state of pots in? -- in these types of pots in? A little
:21:40. > :21:45.bit careless on that one, took his eye off the black, but, I tell you
:21:45. > :21:50.what, he may have got under way with this. If this red doesn't go
:21:50. > :21:57.into the middle pocket, he has had a result, but it think it baby just
:21:57. > :22:07.goes. He has won into the green pocket. The red over the yellow
:22:07. > :22:17.
:22:17. > :22:24.Well played! Very good shots! It is so important for Shaun to make him
:22:24. > :22:34.pay for that miss on the black. Strip away he leapt the white run
:22:34. > :22:35.
:22:35. > :23:17.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 62 seconds
:23:17. > :23:26.He just took his eye off the pot. Shaun just stepping back while the
:23:26. > :23:36.referee gets the pink into a very tricky spots. It has got to get as
:23:36. > :23:56.
:23:56. > :24:06.near to its own spot directly I am just looking at the frame
:24:06. > :24:12.scores, Shaun made and 91 break. His highest break recently has only
:24:12. > :24:22.been 36. He could do with the frame winner. Just to restore his
:24:22. > :24:44.
:24:44. > :24:48.He doesn't struggle to get his rhythm going, even if he has been
:24:48. > :24:54.frozen out of the match. You wouldn't think he has had such a
:24:54. > :25:04.torrid time of it for the last six frames. He walks around the table
:25:04. > :25:10.
:25:10. > :25:15.with confidence. You would think he I have seen Shaun under pressure
:25:15. > :25:19.over the years play his best snooker. In 2005 he was really
:25:19. > :25:25.under it against Matthew Stevens. Everybody thought Matthew was going
:25:25. > :25:33.to be world champion that year. But Shaun, under extreme pressure,
:25:33. > :25:41.played some unbelievable snooker. There is only one more red that is
:25:41. > :25:51.available, the one at the front of the three reds and pinks. He has a
:25:51. > :26:00.
:26:00. > :26:07.slight angle on the blue to play a Well, he has played for the only
:26:07. > :26:13.one that was available. Would he get a better angle this time to
:26:13. > :26:23.move them, or when he removes this red, is the one to the left
:26:23. > :26:32.
:26:32. > :26:42.It might be on. The one just above the two reds and pink. It is, it is
:26:42. > :26:54.
:26:54. > :27:00.He has not had any chances in the last six frames. He has had a good
:27:00. > :27:10.few chances, but to produce this after losing six frames in a row,
:27:10. > :27:29.
:27:29. > :27:39.that is typical of Shaun Murphy. -- Well, he could have been better. He
:27:39. > :28:06.
:28:06. > :28:16.He has held it off one cushion. 58 in front. A couple more pots and
:28:16. > :28:33.
:28:33. > :28:43.Look where the cue ball ran. 66 in front, he just needs the one red.
:28:43. > :28:48.
:28:48. > :28:58.He can make this in the middle pocket. It is in! So he has
:28:58. > :28:58.
:28:58. > :29:43.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 62 seconds
:29:43. > :29:52.punished Judd for the missed black Good point you made, Steve, Shaun
:29:52. > :30:00.walks round the table as if he had won six frames in a row. He is a
:30:00. > :30:10.professional, loves the game of snooker. And is a good ambassador
:30:10. > :30:14.
:30:14. > :30:24.for the game. But he needs the black to have a chance at a century.
:30:24. > :30:37.
:30:37. > :30:47.The boy is cueing well again! All credit to Shaun Murphy. We have had
:30:47. > :30:57.38 centuries so far in this World Championship. Shaun has had four.
:30:57. > :31:00.
:31:00. > :31:10.Make that five! And now we have a match on our hands! Shaun cueing
:31:10. > :31:32.
:31:32. > :31:41.beautifully. Who will get through His highest break has been 128. He
:31:41. > :31:51.will equal that if he pots the red and black. Well done, Shaun Murphy!
:31:51. > :32:12.
:32:12. > :32:22.Walks around the place like Keet owns that place. Can Shaun
:32:22. > :32:32.continued with the good long pot? He was a long way off that. But he
:32:32. > :32:35.
:32:35. > :32:42.has got away with it. Fortunate ones he missed the park. In fact it
:32:42. > :32:52.is a bit of a stalemate where the white has finished. There is very
:32:52. > :33:14.
:33:14. > :33:24.That red is pottable from everywhere down the bottom of the
:33:24. > :33:28.
:33:28. > :33:38.table apart from the green pocket area. Could play a tempter, dead
:33:38. > :33:40.
:33:40. > :33:50.straight in the jaws of the black pocket. He can get the game back to
:33:50. > :33:54.
:33:54. > :34:04.normality. But he will have to be careful if he plays that back up
:34:04. > :34:12.
:34:12. > :34:21.the table. Modern players always looking for a half chance. He did
:34:21. > :34:31.not play to roll it in, that is for certain. He just played to wobble
:34:31. > :34:47.
:34:47. > :34:54.it in the jaws. There is no player who likes this type of frame. He
:34:54. > :35:04.certainly did not want that to happen. And a half chance for Judd
:35:04. > :35:13.
:35:13. > :35:23.Trump. That is right in the pocket. That was a bad mistake from Shaun.
:35:23. > :35:57.
:35:57. > :36:07.That was very careless. He might be It looks as if the session is
:36:07. > :36:13.
:36:13. > :36:23.winding up to be a slug fest! are the balls potted. That is why
:36:23. > :36:30.
:36:30. > :36:40.Did not have to go into the pink there, just played for the single
:36:40. > :36:53.
:36:53. > :37:03.red. He might leave himself on the black this time. He still has two
:37:03. > :37:04.
:37:04. > :37:14.loose reds think about. Judd wants to get into the bounce as soon as
:37:14. > :37:18.
:37:18. > :37:28.possible. It looks as though he is going to wait. You would have
:37:28. > :37:42.
:37:42. > :37:50.expected the pack to be opened there. He has got a nice last
:37:50. > :38:00.resort hanging over the green pocket. Has he got the separation?
:38:00. > :38:01.
:38:01. > :39:16.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 62 seconds
:39:16. > :39:26.Well, I don't know if he had heavy contact or if was just the bridging.
:39:26. > :39:26.
:39:26. > :39:36.But that could be costly. Maybe he just took his eye off it. This
:39:36. > :39:41.
:39:41. > :39:51.could be quite a turning point. It looked pretty straightforward for
:39:51. > :39:58.
:39:58. > :40:01.Judd to have a run to the winning line in this frame. But the way
:40:01. > :40:11.Shaun Murphy played it the last frame, I would not put it past him
:40:11. > :40:13.
:40:13. > :40:23.to clear up here. That delicate cannon has got him back in prime
:40:23. > :40:32.
:40:32. > :40:42.position. At his level he is the favourite to win the frame. It was
:40:42. > :40:58.
:40:59. > :41:08.Just in between frames on the other side of the arena. That is what the
:41:09. > :41:20.
:41:20. > :41:30.noise is about. The only real hope for Judd here is possibly in
:41:30. > :41:33.
:41:33. > :41:35.potting the last red, that he somehow goes wrong. If brown and
:41:35. > :41:45.green and yellow were on their spots it would be an easier
:41:45. > :41:58.
:41:58. > :42:08.prospect. He has to be careful with Just walking away from the shot and
:42:08. > :42:15.
:42:15. > :42:25.back into it again. That is the thing to do. No point changing your
:42:25. > :42:35.
:42:35. > :42:45.mind when you are down into the shot. He may be able to play for
:42:45. > :42:54.
:42:54. > :43:04.the brown in the middle pocket. He has gone a bit wide for that shot.
:43:04. > :43:06.
:43:06. > :43:11.Of course he can play the brown into the same pocket as the red.
:43:11. > :43:21.am not sure if that yellow is blocking the brown. I assumed it
:43:21. > :43:30.
:43:30. > :43:40.was. But playing the green could go wrong if he had the worst possible
:43:40. > :43:50.
:43:50. > :44:00.angle. He has to make sure he does not snooker himself. A body blow
:44:00. > :44:07.
:44:07. > :44:17.for Judd if he clears up here. Oh, he thought he had missed that! Just
:44:17. > :44:18.
:44:18. > :44:28.there he thought it was not going in. Superb from Shaun Murphy here.
:44:28. > :44:37.
:44:38. > :44:47.So a judge Trump missed a black off I do not think he got a kick. Just
:44:48. > :44:56.
:44:56. > :45:06.What a great frame from Shaun Murphy. It looked easy at one stage.
:45:06. > :45:38.
:45:38. > :45:48.Shaun Murphy is back in the lead. Needs a little flick and he has not
:45:48. > :45:58.
:45:58. > :46:08.got it. Very unlucky. Just under nine feet, the long pot. Unlucky to
:46:08. > :46:12.
:46:12. > :46:18.finish where he did. Ideally he would have been on the yellow.
:46:18. > :46:27.He did not really get it that tight. You would expect Shaun Murphy to
:46:27. > :46:36.get out of this, no problem. Because of the reds that are lose
:46:36. > :46:46.to the bounce, you cannot come of that side. If he plays to land on
:46:46. > :46:52.
:46:52. > :47:02.the one behind the black he has got to be spot on. That looks a little
:47:02. > :47:09.bit pacey. He will be disappointed with that. There were other options
:47:09. > :47:19.but they all had an element of risk. I must say, the pockets along the
:47:19. > :47:20.
:47:20. > :47:25.top cushion this week have looked relatively easy. And nicely
:47:25. > :47:30.controlled shot from Judd Trump there. He deserves to have got
:47:31. > :47:40.something out of it. It just seems that the top cushion has been
:47:41. > :47:43.
:47:43. > :47:53.I was speaking to Ricky Walden earlier and he said that the
:47:53. > :48:15.
:48:15. > :48:25.Let us have a look. A lot of people will be watching in the snooker
:48:25. > :48:35.clubs and be thinking that the pockets are easy. In relation to a
:48:35. > :48:44.
:48:44. > :48:54.He is not in prime position just yet. He made that shot look
:48:54. > :49:13.
:49:13. > :49:23.effortless. A tremendous amount of He might cannon in to the four. He
:49:23. > :49:29.
:49:29. > :49:39.does not want to be risking a It is so difficult now to pick a
:49:39. > :49:44.
:49:44. > :49:50.Ronnie O'Sullivan is on the brink of going through. He will play the

:56:39. > :56:48.get through to the pink? If he puts Shaun Murphy back in then he has
:56:49. > :56:56.got quite an easy escape. Shaun could go off a side cushion and pot
:56:56. > :57:05.the red. If the pink went, you could make a case for actually
:57:05. > :57:15.going for the pink. He was lucky there to get the green back safe
:57:15. > :57:20.
:57:20. > :57:26.You would think from that angle he could take the red into the pocket

:59:34. > :59:45.
:59:45. > :59:50.surprised he was sitting down. De Green is on the side cushion,

:00:46. > :00:51.
:00:51. > :01:01.too aggressive. It wasn't that I was surprised, job being a left-

:27:09. > :27:18.He may be better displaying the What sort of choice of shot was

:27:28. > :27:30.
:27:30. > :27:36.want an easy chance! Gair was the reaction from Judd Trump. He has
:27:36. > :27:46.played so many good safety shots, but the shot he took on their, he
:27:46. > :28:09.
:28:09. > :28:19.That was as a probe shot. -- a superb shot. Just tucking in behind
:28:19. > :28:20.
:28:20. > :28:30.the yellow. He cannot cut that in, it looks too thin. He is going to
:28:30. > :28:36.
:28:36. > :28:46.take the cut on. No, he has decided. He could have lost his quarter-
:28:46. > :29:09.
:29:09. > :29:19.Twice across the table would be OK this time. He could play with a
:29:19. > :29:28.
:29:28. > :29:31.touch of side to get there. He is looking at just coming off the side
:29:31. > :29:41.cushion to play the red near the middle pocket. He is now looking at
:29:41. > :30:12.
:30:12. > :30:22.Just! Excellent shot. And a small headache for Shaun Murphy. Red over
:30:22. > :30:28.
:30:28. > :30:38.the middle pocket will be causing a few problems. It is risky to send
:30:38. > :30:44.
:30:44. > :30:54.it back up the table without getting the double kiss. You have
:30:54. > :30:56.
:30:56. > :31:06.to be very sure of yourself with that shot. That is not the way he
:31:06. > :31:10.
:31:10. > :31:20.played it! He will take that, though! This is some battle! Still
:31:20. > :31:21.
:31:21. > :31:31.nine reds left on the table. He hit that far too thin. Somehow got back
:31:31. > :31:56.
:31:56. > :32:06.up the table. He is playing this It is a natural shot to play as a
:32:06. > :32:09.
:32:09. > :32:19.safety shot. He had so much pace on the cue ball. He really needs some
:32:19. > :32:29.
:32:29. > :32:39.shots here. Not only to pot but to get on a red. I do not blame him
:32:39. > :32:46.
:32:46. > :32:52.for refusing the green. He has got in behind the brown. There is no
:32:52. > :33:02.escape, similar to the one he played previously. That is nearer
:33:02. > :33:09.
:33:09. > :33:19.the black. Oh, well judged! That was not as easy an angle as the
:33:19. > :33:59.

:34:35. > :34:46.
:34:46. > :34:54.from Judd Trump. But it is still so The first frame was the longest of
:34:54. > :35:04.this match. Just over 38 minutes. It was a tactical frame but it did

:38:54. > :38:59.
:38:59. > :39:09.more force. In some ways, this is not a bad situation for Judd. He

:39:45. > :39:46.
:39:46. > :39:56.Just going round to have a look. He is certainly in the driving seat at
:39:56. > :40:01.
:40:01. > :40:08.the moment. But if Shaun could get some reds into play there could be
:40:08. > :40:18.a long way to go in this frame. And maybe a chance to bring the black
:40:18. > :40:24.
:40:24. > :40:34.into play. It is just how he feels. He is quite an aggressive player.
:40:34. > :40:41.
:40:41. > :40:51.He is taking this on! It is a cracking pot. He is a bit unlucky
:40:51. > :41:01.
:41:01. > :41:11.with the cue ball. Could have been tears if it had gone wrong! Shaun
:41:11. > :41:20.
:41:20. > :41:25.played a very brave shot there. This could be a key shot. He has to
:41:25. > :41:35.be careful with that first read that it does not escape into a
:41:35. > :41:51.
:41:51. > :42:01.Do not knock the brown in! That was very unlucky. He has not left a pot
:42:01. > :42:09.
:42:09. > :42:19.on for Judd. He has made a bit of a mess of it. A couple of minutes ago
:42:19. > :42:25.
:42:25. > :42:35.everything was tied up. It is not tied up now. Another aggressive pot
:42:35. > :42:55.
:42:55. > :43:03.from Shaun. This fellow pulls some shots out under pressure! If the
:43:03. > :43:13.red goes past the other red, what a shot that last one was! And that is
:43:13. > :43:33.
:43:33. > :43:43.What a recovery to get back in this frame! Now the longest frame of the
:43:43. > :43:44.
:43:44. > :43:54.match, the most exciting and certainly the most important. He
:43:54. > :44:00.
:44:00. > :44:10.does not want to double kiss this red. This is a key shot coming up.

:47:39. > :47:40.
:47:40. > :47:50.He can only just get to the edge of it. He has got the option of coming

:48:04. > :48:06.
:48:06. > :48:14.has left a possible pot. The yellow has come to the rescue. That was
:48:14. > :48:24.fortunate but he will take that. He was hoping to get the white down
:48:24. > :48:47.
:48:47. > :48:57.near the cushion and for the yellow He is looking at the angle. He does

:49:06. > :49:14.have an easy safety of the left This frame for a place in the semi-
:49:14. > :49:24.final almost certainly against Ronnie O'Sullivan. Who will it be?
:49:24. > :49:35.
:49:35. > :49:45.Judd Trump or the magician Shaun Is he taking on the cut? It looks
:49:45. > :49:55.as if he is, but he has changed his mind. It is just to sin. -- too

:49:59. > :50:09.thin. I like this a shot. I like it very much indeed. He thought about
:50:09. > :50:26.
:50:26. > :50:36.trying to cut that in. He made the Where is the red? It looks as if it
:50:36. > :50:45.
:50:45. > :50:50.might cut. The chance is there. Can he get himself on to a colour? If
:50:50. > :50:57.he drops nicely on his pink it could be the end of the quarter-
:50:57. > :51:07.final. And he has dropped nicely on it. But that tough red, Shaun knows
:51:07. > :51:14.
:51:15. > :51:24.He has got to play that snooker now behind the black. He is within one
:51:24. > :51:31.shot of a place in the semi-final. He seemed to hit that too hard. I
:51:31. > :51:41.cannot believe he was trying to shift it off the cushion. Now he
:51:41. > :51:45.
:51:45. > :51:49.has to send the red around. This is brave, should he take it on. He is
:51:49. > :51:59.guaranteed a good safety, a possible snooker. But it is up to
:51:59. > :52:02.
:52:03. > :52:09.judge. -- Judd. He could have played it a lot better than that. I
:52:09. > :52:19.think he got himself a little confused. That is a poor shot he

:53:57. > :53:59.
:53:59. > :54:09.pot from Judd Trump and he is in the semi-final. He is faced with a
:54:09. > :54:10.
:54:10. > :54:20.long black. He is 25 in front. Does he play the snooker? That is what
