Semi final match between Ali Carter and Joe Perry

Match is being played best of 33 frames so first player who wins 17 frames will qualify to finals.

I still can't believe how Perry defeated Maguire. Perry played extremely good just first 4 frames and everything other was average snooker. After Maguire was leading 12-11 a thought everything is over now, but Maguire started to feel pressure. However, this was one of the worst Maguire's match this year. He has done more mistakes than he did whole season. Perry has taken his chances and win. Perry is very good player, extremly though opponent to beat. He played wonderful match against Dott, but against Bingham and Maguire he was not on the same level.

Carter won Ebdon 13-9 and played very good. In 15th frame he managed a 147 break, maximum and that was something nobody expected. Except great form, Carter showed patience and good play under big pressure.

In my opinion Carter is favorite here. He showed better form, played some briliant snooker and had more time to relax before semi final match. Perry is very though opponent, big fighter, but he played very long and exosting match against Maguire.

So, I believe in Carter and this handicap is really small, worth of taking.

Good luck
