    It's a cracking final, one of my favourites so far.

    Has Brecel got any nerves ?

    Might start showing when he's in the final session and the reality that he could win the world championship hits him.

    When Si was 14-5 up I said something very similar, basically I hope he can get over the line before he realises what’s happening and his @rse falls out!

    At that point it fell apart, and I don’t think this final is done yet either.

    Yes the break in play could be a factor. If he comes out and wins 1 of the first 2 frames think he will do it. But if Selby starts to claw back then the mental block can come in.

    agree!
    the whole production is outstanding - camera shots - brilliant commentators led by Dennis Taylor - excellent players.
    Selby 10 - Brecel 16 -- never write Selby off.

    Selby showing some fight after losing an early frame.

    Not sure Acido. The Belgian will come out refreshed and possibly take 2 in a row.

    As I've pointed out I'm not Selbys biggest fan by any stretch but all credit to him. Brecel has given him some chances and he has taken them ruthlessly.

    While we're on a break, let's have a giggle at these mistakes and miscues. Get ready to duck, because those cue balls fly all over the place. :D

    There's a certain grim inevitability about Selby grinding this back. Time for bed!
