Jake: Stuart Bingham deserves to win this after beating Ronnie and Judd. I can't explain how much I'd love to see him win this.

Matt Lloyd: What an amazing mini-session from Bingham, in total control. Lots to do from Murphy if he's to retain any chance of winning.

Jamie McDonald: Happy to see that momentum is with Bingham. Fair play to him. I love his attitude.

It has been a fantastic tournament. And it is not over yet. Are there going to be more twists and turns in the final? The players are back out. And off we go again.

And Ding Junhui forgot he was on a maximum and played for the blue instead.

Not just from the players, but the fans as well.

We have had wardrobe malfunctions.

We have had smiles.

World Snooker's scoring system fell apart with an anti-virus message popping up instead.

Stuart Bingham has surprised us and entertained us on his way to the final.

We have had Ronnie O'Sullivan playing in his socks.

Time to look back at some of the memorable moments from this year's tournament and our television coverage.

"Shaun will hope the interval has come to his rescue, just to get him out of there, because if it had carried on with the way he's playing at the moment, Stuart would be running away with this.

"He's so much on top and Shaun looks a little bit at sea, and his shot selection is a bit weird today. Just try and make it a bit easier and get yourself a foothold. He's got to find something from somewhere. He must win the next mini session at least 3-1 - 2-2 wouldn't be great."

"Stuart Bingham's dressing room is a lot more peaceful than Shaun Murphy's will be. Shaun Murphy showed the first bit of emotion when he missed that red in the last frame.

"He looks bemused in his chair. He doesn't know what has hit him. The interval has come at a good time for him, though. He's still in it. There is a long way to go and he just needs to get some long pots in."

Mid-session interval time. Although Stuart Bingham would have loved to have been able to continue. Shaun Murphy has some time to compose himself again and sort himself out.

Yesterday Stuart Bingham looked finished at 8-4 behind. He has now won eight of the last nine to lead 12-9. Played four today, won four today. Shaun Murphy would be quite happy to press the reset button and start today again.

This Charming Man: Bingham is playing incredible snooker once again. Murphy really needs to up his game and cut out the mistakes.

James Parrish: I think Shaun is folding. He's gone!

Jay Shaw: Amazing how many times the momentum can swing in a match of this distance. Impossible to call a winner here.

Can Stuart Bingham become number 18?

But Shaun Murphy is given a lifeline as Bingham misses a red into the corner. However, Murphy, known as the Magician, will have to pull a rabbit out of the hat to win this one as he comes to the table 50-1 behind.

Remember, Shaun Murphy started the day ahead. Now he is two behind. And that could soon be three.

"So close yet so far for Stuart Bingham as he misses the final red on a 147 break. Agonising. The crowd knew from early on what was coming and held their breath, but 'Ballrun' didn't quite get the luck when he needed it."

John Parrott

"I've never known a tournament like this when I've seen one player dominate a round and look like the eventual winner and then be on the back foot the next. This is someone [Stuart Bingham] who has never won a home-soil ranking event and he is playing like this. It is a phenomenal performance."
