Ok, so we are now down to the Semi Finals, who do you think will walk away with the title this year?

I would like to see Hunter win but I fancy Williams to win now.

I'd like it to be Lee, but I think it'll be Williams. I don't really mind too much, as long as Doherty doesn't win.

I think it will be a Ken Doherty, Mark Williams final, with Williams going on to win it. As for who I'd like to win it, I generally favour the underdog so I'd have to say Hunter.

Can anyone answer me this? Why do snooker players always 'wiggle' their middle finger as they're about to take a shot?

Wiggle? do you mean tap? I believe this is a rythem thing.

I could understand that if they only did it while they were taking the shot, but it seems that they carry on tapping after they have hit the white.
Force of habit perhaps?

Well, so much for favouring the underdog. Paul Hunter is out, but not without a brave effort. The Yorkshire lad done good, but it seems that the pressure got to him as Ken Doherty made a dramatic comeback to win the match. So a Mark Williams, Ken Doherty final it is. (As I predicted earlier)

The balls just ran for Doherty in the latter part. Hunter didn't do too much wrong but came up against a focused Ken. I think Hunter will be champion one day.

I have to agree, Hunter will be champ one day with a bit of experience behind him.
