Some of these shots he’s going for. Fuck me. No respect for his opponent whatsoever
Not working out as much now though

He’s had a lot of luck with the white ball when he’s missed throughout. I don’t care though, I’m just enjoying this before Selby fucks us all up the arse in the final.
Fuck me, that miss on the green.
Huge difference for the match, oh shit . . .
That miss on the green after the brilliant brown. Fuck me.
He’ll be thankful for the end of the session. Hopefully he finishes it off tomorrow as not a chance Brecel beats Selby.
Si selects his shots more aggressively than I used to on world snooker championship 2005 on the PS2.
Shite refereeing. Suits the match I guess.
Mark Selby with Murphy on comms. NOPE.
Haha. I turned it on to check if they’d completed a frame and Selby took on a brown instead of playing safe. About fell off my chair. Absolutely nae danger I’m spending my morning listening to Murphy though
If this match goes close tonight they could genuinely end up finishing at 5am.
Think Si’s bottle may have crashed. I think that’s 7 frames in a row he’s lost. At least 3 of them he missed an easy pot or took on an outrageous shot
This is some bottle job, bigger than Ronnie's
He’s gonna end up losing 13 frames in a row having been up 14-5 and cruising lol. Thought starting afresh today would have seen him back on it but his safety play is just awful and he’s never not gonna attempt these risky pots.

Taking that black on was absolute insanity.
I've gone from feeling sorry for Si to just thinking what a fucking loser.
The blue fucking hell. He's done.
Yep. Bar Jimmy White's famous 10 frames lost in a row, you normally get a bit of ebb and flow when a player comes back from so far behind to level but Si just doesn't look like he has anything left in him to make that happen.
Ronnie sounded a bit ott in the Eurosport studio yesterday when he was saying that missed green could be career defining let alone match defining, but I do sorta see his point. Si will remember this tournament for his disintegration more than an amazing run to the semis, you'd imagine.
Brecel probably always had a much better chance in the final anyway, but coming off winning a million frames in a row might make him even more likely to beat one of the Marks, which probably makes this a better outcome
Watching his career and probably life go down in flames here to some bald dwarf from Belgium.
At least he done us a favour and donned Shaun Murphy again
calling it now - he gets a nice little 50-60 break then misses an easy frame ball
I was wrong, thank god. fair play, like.
That was very good, get in son. Final frame decider please.
He’s alive!
I think if he does squeeze a win here he might be fine in the final. Today would have been his blip you’d think rather than doing it in two consecutive matches.
Mon' the 4am finish tonight it is then.
Yeah, bit mental to be going for that red when it was effectively match ball. Still took a good pot from Brecel afterwards but come on.
Hell of a match. He's still stupid young, that'll either break him for a few years, or spur him on to sort out the wildness. Trump/O'Sullivan etc had the same issue when younger.
He needs a mental coach really, look what it did from Ronnie. Turned him from an arrogant, lager swilling cokehead into an arrogant, vegan eating runner.
These pockets are massive. That black literally hit half way up the cushion.
Does Shelby not want to win or something.
I'm convinced Selby gains more enjoyment from dragging people down to his gritty game, than he does actually winning.
Standard has been shocking in this frame.
Just downed chicken tikka and chips with a cheesy garlic bread, popped an edible, and settling down for an evening of the worst snooker ever.
Let's fucking have it.

I'm not even sure I want Mark Allen to win now, he's been a disgrace so far this evening.
Is Mark Allen on the take? He’s been piss poor.
Probably made enough to cover his takeaway and child support yearly bill, so lads not arsed.
That was a tragic mini-session from Allen.
The Mrs turned to me at some point during this match, the shot having cut to the camera in the commentary booth and said, that guy sounds like the guy from the snooker show that was on when I was a kid.
Will not believe it is the very same John Virgo. And that's already more entertaining than anything that's happened in this match.
Big Break? Loved that show as a kid.
I will asphyxi-wank myself to death tonight if Mark Selby loses from 16-10 up.
The referee needs to tell this twat to hurry the fuck up. Gamesmanship levels here now.
They generally don't let working class comedians on TV now. No culture wars in Jim's heyday so presumably he was just another prick in the TV industry rather than a cancelled prick.
Selby’s lost his head here.
That geezer in the front is definitely asleep
I used to love Big Break, doesn't seem to be repeated from what I can see though whereas the glory years of Bullseye are on a double bill every night at 11pm on Challenge. Top flight mullets and polo shirts on show or your money back
What a frame that was.
This is great. So much tension.
I can’t tell if that yellow was deliberate or not.
