00:04so since that 1-4-1 break
00:07Williams has potted
00:08three balls
00:10one of them
00:12only was in live play
00:14the other one they took a red and a pink
00:16when
00:19he was chasing
00:20snoogers so he's been thoroughly
00:22outpointed in every way since then
00:25it was a sensational
00:26break in the first frame but it's been put
00:28very quiet since then
00:30by the man he's playing
00:36Judd
00:50surprising shot that one wasn't it to
00:52to give a chance like that
00:55I think he was in a spot of trouble
01:00someone's urging
01:01Mark Williams to
01:03to do something but not much he can do
01:05sometimes
01:13one
01:16at least he's got a chance
01:17here though and if he can
01:19recapture the form of the first frame
01:21now the chance has come
01:22who knows
01:24he had to do something but he's got to do
01:27and he's got a chance to do
01:30to get a chance
01:30let's get a chance
01:31here
01:31to take a chance
01:31number one
01:31there's a chance to do
01:32he
01:32he
01:34he
01:34he
01:36he
01:39he
01:39he
01:517.
01:558.
02:098.
02:30Well, that could have gone better.
02:3413.
03:23Terrific shot.
03:25Well, he's on the red he's close to, but it's not easy.
03:28Long way to go to get to the pocket from there for the red.
03:5420.
03:57Such a good shot.
03:59Very difficult.
04:09So the level of play continues.
04:11This is Williams in again looking dangerous.
04:15He's just not had the chances since the opening frame.
04:30Twenty-seven.
04:51Thirty-three.
04:59Thirty-four.
05:32Thirty-nine.
05:45Well, that's one of the few balls he's actually missed.
05:48Thirty-nine.
05:49Now he's desperately looking for cover behind the blue.
05:53Has he got it, is the question.
05:57I think he has, but he's still disappointed that the break didn't go any further.
06:21I'll see you in the next few minutes.
06:21That's why I'm going to say I'll show you in the next few minutes.
06:22That's the question.
06:24There's no way to go.
06:45You're not going to go to the other one.
06:47But you're not going to go to the other one.
07:14Yes, I mean it's not actually a plant,
07:16but if the cubal was perhaps low on the two reds he could make it into one,
07:21but up there where he is I'm not sure how he could possibly do that
07:24unless the red to the right is sending the first red off into a different direction.
07:30It looks like he's in a bit of trouble actually.
07:35He's to worry about where the reds go when he opens them up here.
07:44Yeah, he was in trouble and Williams gains the advantage,
07:49but he's still got a longish pot to knock in.
09:06Very nicely played.
09:08Very nicely played.
09:10He seems to linger over the shot as if he's not happy with it,
09:13but I can't see why not.
09:16I think probably getting to his next colour would be his only problem,
09:19but he's certainly not played a bad shot there at all.
09:37Now, he can't really avoid the two reds here very easily.
09:42He just managed to just get up there.
09:4430.
09:46So that's OK.
09:48It's a frame he desperately needs.
09:52Run this blue through on the two reds by the pink spot,
09:55and he's inching closer to winning it.
10:05Hasn't been anything remotely like a close frame in this match.
10:0880.
10:1590.
10:18I've already checked to see whether the pink went earlier,
10:22and it must squeeze past the two reds into that corner.
10:24Yes, it does.
10:3425.
10:3625.
10:4126.
10:43That'll be frame ball, and it's a frame back for Mark Williams.
10:5732.
11:0533.
11:2039.
11:2940.
11:4646
11:5547
11:57Matching and play to the highest standard match play, I think
12:11Even that shot, the frames won, beautifully played
12:15Didn't get round though for the red
12:1753
12:19Well, that's a strange shot, not really a shot at all
12:22But anyway, Mark Williams very comfortably wins the frame
12:26He pulls one back, he desperately needed to do that
12:29Because he's still behind, but not
