    So often it comes down to Luck at the top level.

    Over 300 points now without reply. Getting closer to the very prestigious group of five time world champions.

    Proper love in from the commentators on bbc for selby about how great he is - and barely a mention that he spawned his way into the opening break of this frame by getting the poxiest fluke I’ve seen all fortnight from a safety shot he caught too thick.

    He’s got in Brecel’s head. Hope I’m wrong but I don’t see Luca winning another frame.

    I don't get that. If you want to hear commentary why not just stay at home and watch on TV.

    FFS Selby has more jam than Hartley’s.

    That missed brown was justice.

    I've done both and definitely prefer the commentary. It's just too quiet otherwise!

    What a way to win the tournament, with a big break (pardon the pun as Virgo is on commentary yelling :D).

    Well done lad, that took some balls (no pun intended).

    Really pleased he got over the line, plays entertaining snooker and he deserves it after the way he’s played for two weeks.
