Allen beats Hawkins and we are guaranteed a new finalist. 🙂

Might yet be all-Irish final with Mark Allen and Seán Murphy.

Hossein was decent enough but Wu was great. Hope he wins the whole thing.

Surprised you're not claiming Higgins, too. Decent chance Robertson is a bit Irish as well, I'd imagine.

I was waiting to see if he won first. He's a Celtic man, so close enough.

Shaun Murphy knocks out Zhao. Not sure I have ever seen him play better. Rory's Curse scepticism looking pretty silly, now.

Any curse is outweighed by the sheer probability of my preferred outcome not happening in any sporting context.

12-10 to Higgins, that'll a sore one for Robertson to lose.

Robertson has gone, I think. Pretty poor Crucible record considering how good he is, hasn't made semis since 2014.

How thick do you have to be to forget to turn your phone off at the snooker?

Yep his shot choice and safety play has been dire this evening.

I didn't see/hear it, but switch from one arse cheek to the other in the Crucible and you get a dozen angry looks.
