Good stuff been going to the Crucible for 25 years, never been to the qualifiers but I do fancy it. It's only £10 a day isn't it? Great value
Who we fancying today? Carter Wilson is a tough one to call, think I just favour the captain on current form but think it'll go pretty close 10-8 10-9

I think I'd go for Carter too, definitely one of the best at the moment, which is saying a lot!

Carter prediction looking ropey here mind IF he can get out this session 5-3 he'll feel like he's won the session

 

[jacko100]

Milkins playing well here. Class player to watch when he’s on form. No time wasting just gets down and hits the ball.

Looks like Virgo given a reprieve and will continue his commentary duties for the BBC

See Jimmy is 33-1 to qualify from his section of the draw that's massive surely

I've never had a good look mate tbh. It's a lot of frames for a 61yo to qualify mind

Agreed will be difficult but I think it's 3 games against not great opposition he probably won't but I think it should be shorter odds, who do you think will win the lot

Trump, think this bit time off will do him good and he'll come in fresh and ever so slightly under the radar. You?

Not sure trump possibly but Murphy has been excellent recently, think it's as open as it has in ages you could pick anyone from 7 or 8 players, in going to go against the grain and hope Ronnie doesn't win.

This is the first session I have turned the current event on. There's no-one there. They need a new plan next year. This one isn't working and the China swing isn't coming back anytime soon I guess

 

[Scotty 1978]

Milkins should’ve been 6-2 up this afternoon, let Murphy back in

 

[Jack Torrance]

The crowds look awful considering it’s one of the biggest tournaments in the season

Brutal turnout this evening for whats meant to be a showcase event, its not even half full by the looks of it

Hope Milkins wins this

White potentially has to beat Marco Fu, noppon saengkham and Xiao Guodong so I don't fancy him making it

Not ideal but not opponents that are doing that much

Nee chance he'd beat any of them over best of 19.

I love my snooker but I'd struggle to sit through some of the early rounds best of 19 matches.
