As yesterday when Bingham got a chance from 8-4 down this is must win for Murphy now.

He did win but Bingham has been on top, sharing the last mini-sesh 2-2.
In the mid-break they were talking about Barry Hearn's first five years and a Bingham victory is almost the culmination of that. This nowhere guy at the right place, gets the matches and tournaments he needs, plays in all of them (unlike Ronnie and some of the others he doesn't whine about commitments/traveling away), improves into a match player that is good enough and hungry enough to knock out Ronnie and Judd and absolutely beat the shit out of Murphy this afternoon.
Only thing that can stop him is this break between sessions/thinking out too loud.

Murphy has been awfully pleasant throughout the tournament. Makes it impossible to hate him or wish him ill, really. Probably much better that way. Been an amazing final.

A wtf frame: 37 break from Murphy and now back to a safety exchange.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 18:20 (nine years ago) link
Should win it now.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 18:21 (nine years ago) link
Bet Hendry is getting twitchy @ this stuff.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 18:29 (nine years ago) link
14-12. Makes sure we have a final mini-session.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 18:32 (nine years ago) link
Getting his mojo back.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 18:34 (nine years ago) link
Finest break of the match. Black on brown spot, pink tied up for the most part. Bingham wasn't timing it right either, just kept potting them.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 18:48 (nine years ago) link
103 break: 15-12.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 18:49 (nine years ago) link
wish I was watching this rather than standing in the rain in Leicester Square. Will see the final mini-session I guess

Couple of nervous shots from Bingham - Murphy has got to make him earn it here.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 19:02 (nine years ago) link
now, yellow for the red
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 19:05 (nine years ago) link
tough pot on the red..
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 19:06 (nine years ago) link
Brilliant shot, amazing clearance..
Two of the best breaks you'll see...first time where you think this is going all the way.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 19:10 (nine years ago) link
Reaching a point in the final where we'll see quite a lot of safety and more drama.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 19:19 (nine years ago) link
Bingham freezing up.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 19:24 (nine years ago) link
15-14. As Hendry is saying Murphy has just become favourite so this mid-session has come just in time for Bingham.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 19:36 (nine years ago) link
mid-sesh interval.
might have to stop watching this again :/

Gotta man up.
More misses in this frame than in the entire match.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 20:09 (nine years ago) link
Its gonna be 15-15. Jimmy White needed in the commentary box.

Guy can't buy a 20 break.

You have tried to insert a duplicate message.

happy Bingham has won that, think it would've killed him.
Murphy has a considerable amount of matchplay experience. Still a blow but he can come back.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 21:21 (nine years ago) link
that frame was better than most films
― an absolute feast of hardcore fanboy LOLs surrounding (imago), Monday, 4 May 2015 21:21 (nine years ago) link
LOL at pitched-down 'get in' from the crowd on the slo-mo replay there.

loved that.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 21:30 (nine years ago) link
that last frame seems to have gotten him into some of his earlier form..
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 21:32 (nine years ago) link
by hook or by crook - one way.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 4 May 2015 21:47 (nine years ago) link
one away - by many ways.
can't lose it now (please)

Great break to finish up.
