11-9 at the mid-session interval.

1342

End of session

Billy Bingham 13-11 Donald Trump

1343

Trump won a big frame when 13-9 down. Got about 40 points from snookers and misses. Bingham then missed a handyish pink.

1344

Mid session interval.

Bingham 15-13 Trump

Winner plays Murphy

1345

Bingham 1 away…16-14 up

1346

Bingham 16-15 Trump

1347

16-16. Deciding frame.

1348

Bingham has been unlucky with the run of the balls. But he has a handy lead with the reds positioned as they are.

1349

Great plant there game over

1350

That plant along the cushion deserves to win the match

1351

Some balls to go for that shot. Deserves to win it.

1352

One for the journeymen. Hope he can keep that form up.

1353

I can see Trump becoming a Jimmy White type player great showman winning loads of mickey mouse titles but never the big one sadly

1354

Incredible poise from Bingham, nobody can begrudge him that victory. I hope he has plenty left in the tank for the final.

1355

Anyone who beats Ronnie and Trump deserves to win it. Hope he finishes the job. He’s a likeable sort

1356

You sense not. Its terrific going to have taken out both Ronnie & Trump, but you sense Murphy will win it easily.

It’ll be a real heavyweight final on one level.

Agree re standard pal but White was a bottler imo. Trump doesn’t have bottle issues -.just beaten by an inspired lad in the form of his life

+1. Bristow in his prime wouldn’t be able to compete with the modern greats like Adams, Waites and Hankey.
