Dafabet Masters Semi Finals: Shaun Murphy v Ali Carter

What was that sigh from Ken?

Murphy you absolute knobcheese. The one time I root for you.

Even the commentators hate Carter. I've never heard a crowd applaud Murphy so much.

I can't stand Carter's smug face.

he realised if murphy loses he might have to sit next to him in the commentary box.

Murphy has gone at the moment

Carter in again.

If Carter wins The Masters, how often will that yellow be mentioned?

Was he ever there to begin with?

Probably the only time I've wanted him to win and he's throwing it away, the helmet

He was at the Ally Pally, yes.

Seeing carter go through after the dodgy yellow just makes it even toilet facility

What's that guy in the orange T-Shirt shouting about?

I don't think I've ever felt such a sense of injustice at snooker. From his bad sportsmanship, his luck in the flukes to his luck at even being in the tournament. So angry.

I certainly can't bring myself to watch any of the final. Need to chill out until the next tournament.

Wish Carter all the misfortune in the world. All of it.

Buzzing

Last triple crown player is out, Ali through 6-3

Killing off the second can of beer. Having dinner cooked for me.

Then save myself for a drink with the final.

Also the last former Masters champion. There will be a first-time champion this year, for the 3rd straight season...

Respect to Ali Carter for what he's come though.

Ngl, I kinda want Carter to win now to snake hiss people off, and get them reacting like AFTV

Arsenal Fan TV. Famous for two of their regulars losing their silt when the Gunners have a poor result, like today

Very nice,humble gesture SF!,

Of course,to each of there own,but many forget what Ali,s been through,even i keep forgetting.


Everyone has there problems,the difference is,some have more,have worse than others,Ali,s defnately not one of my fav players,far from it,but i admire his will,determination,the hard practice,hard work he puts in,i,m sure many in his shoes would of thrown the towel in and maybe even called it a day for good,but he battles on.


I thought Smurph would beat him today thb,but Smurph did,nt make the most of his chances,he said he did,nt do a lot wrong,but he did,nt play that good,missed numerous pots,yeah Ali was very fortunate with the outragious fluke he had,but at the end of the day,he was the better player today.

Ugh

wasnt gonna post much until the World Championships but the fact that Carter is about to win the Masters kinda attracted my attention. Would be funny to say the least if Carter was to win his biggest and only ever TC title only due to a withdrawal from his good buddy.

What a load of rubbish.

I like scrappy snooker within reason — and when the match is tight. Scrappy and one-sided snooker is the game at its worst. Simple as.

You’re acting like every match has been a right good contest. That’s been far from the case.

I Didnt say that but honest to god who bucking cares. jesus the way you lot go on im amazed snooker even survived the 80s.

.....he said to someone who watched snooker throughout the 1980s

The fact that Murphy was the only hope for this tournament just about says it all. This will be one that I'll be hoping to forget asap.
