Bloody misery won yet again.
Snooks throws toys out of pram
.
And here I was expecting a comment on Joe O'Connor. The Leicester cueman has just cpmpleted a 4-1 victory over Matthew Stevens. In the last frame Joe was on a break of 147 but snookered himself on the black when he was on 73 and had to settle for a match winning break of 82.
Maguire continued in his bid to win the Welsh Open for a 2nd time, beating Sanderson Lam 4-2. John Higgins has some mojo going on with another whitewash victory, this time over Yuan Sijun. Welshman Jackson Page also got a whitewash, beating Tom Ford 4-0.
Luca's got Pang Junxu tonight. I'm rooting for Luca to get into the top 32 on the 1YRL to play in the World Grand Prix.

Me too
Mark Selby has seen off a rather profligate Jamie Jones 4-0 and reached the last eight.
Joe O'Connor doing well to shake off that "Ralf Little's stunt double" tag.
Impressed with Page's strong showing - can it last?
Luca Brecel has made it through by overcoming Pang Junxu 4-1
.
Jack Lisowski is the last man into the quarter finals after a 4-2 win over Matthew Selt which included breaks of 123 and a closing 131.
Selby's marathon opening frame win set the tone for a classic with Higgins. Whereas Brecel took his sweet time to shut down Page's fun.
Maguire's in the semi-final!!! Lisowski's centuries deserted him today.
Sadly the Craptain has just gone 4-3 up against Joe O'Connor, but still time for Joe to pull it out of the bag.
A minutes silence will need to be observed for the worst result in the history of the tournament at this rate.
I am suitably appalled and disgusted.
If the same happens at The Crucible I'm converting to watching Billiards.
Consternation ahead at Snooks Towers tonight; sadly there can't be a double disqualification.
Selby-Brecel repeat of the 2023 World final should be intriguing.
