Good calculations there.BigMalUK said:
I hope they do audio throughout the whole finals. Any clue if they will only do the usual time period of 1 and a half hours?

Ralf pockets the 8 to make it a race to one.
This is going to be around a 2.5 hour match. 
Ralf pulls through and wins 8-7.
Lets get it on!

heart breaking, ralf wins
Well, at this point I'm going to go out on a limb
and predict Orcollo and Manalo in the final.
I just can't see how they can lose at this point unless someone else wins all 3 matches left.

Hohmann and Souquet were pretty slow it has to be said. For those places where it is not shown live then this can be edited I suppose, but it was the opposite of the Hann v Appleton match from yesterday which had a bit of everything in it and was a pleasure to watch.
The only slight disappointment in this tournament to my mind is that we seem to have a final six who don't show much (if any) raw emotion. Say what you like about Strickland, Sigel, Hann and O'Sullivan but they make people sit up and watch. Of course all players are never going to act that way and nobody expects it, but I think sometimes players need to remember that this tour will only prosper if people are entertained by it.
It's one of the reasons snooker fell from its heyday in the UK in the 1980s, to its present lowly status on the sporting calendar - the characters disappeared in the main and more robotic (though excellent technically) players emerged and people changed channel.
I guess this is only a minor criticism of what has been an exciting, much needed and innovative tournament which appears to have been a huge success.
I agree with you, these guys have to try to show some emotion, it doesn't mean be nasty, just get excited, talk about the shots, get upset when you miss, talk to the crowed, something. Even golfers talk about the shots and show emotion on made putts or missed putts.
