Ken is playing ok but no consistency at all these days, he still hovers up the scrappy frames with his canniness in the 15-20 visits each frames. I think Fergal O'Brien has finally passed him out this season as the better player.
Yep, Ken due to meet Davy Morris in the second round qualifier, winner of that match not only 1 match away from Crucible spot but will join Fergal as the 2nd man on the 2-man Ireland world cup team which is worth min 10k if I'm not mistaken...
Have this stream open. Dogs*** standard both.
Forget Aintree & Augusta, all-in Davy next round at the Ponds Forge International Sports Centre looks bet of the week to me!
I have heard McCrudden fancies his chances against Robin Hull on Saturday. He can be brilliant at times and has a really good amateur record. 5/1 is a nice price for a speculative Irish win too.

Jimmy turning the clock back against Selt this morning. Selt was 1/5 to win, and Jimmy leading 7-2 after the 1st session. He might fancy himself against Ford/Gilbert if he gets through too.
Ken and Fergal through to the final qualifying round. Not going to be easy for either of them though, with Ken up against Mark Davis and Fergal looking like playing Kurt Maflin.
Nice work from Joe Swail getting the nod 10-9 over Dominic Dale and plays Matthew Stevens next round.

8-8 now.
Selt playing well. He just ran out of position there on 88 (11 reds and 11 blacks)
He's one of the most hated people in the world id say, nobody on tbe tour will give him the time of day. An arrogant horrible prick.
Even today, jimmy played well this morning but according to Selt he was only behind because he had a dose of the flu. He's sucks Hendrys balls so he thinks he's someone other than a journeyman pro.
Jimmys head is gone looks like. Although he should be relaxed he's kept his place on the tour for next season
Not been in the Worlds since 2006 and this is his best chance in a few years but he's played some ridiculous shots over the last couple of friends. Some have paid off, but others like that brown have cost him. Don't see him winning the last 2 because Selt isn't really making any mistakes.
Selt pots the red and Jimmy concedes the frame. Yeah, because position on the next red was straight forward when 43 (probably 48) behind. Bottling cunt.
Tony, are you running the sweepstakes for the Worlds again?
Was thinking about it the other day but not sure we'll have the time. If i was, i was thinking of just putting the players into pots and drawing them randomly rather than going down the manual selection route.

If you allow the honour system for payment similar to the IO comp I think it would work fine. Whoever has their selections in by kick off match 1 is in and they can get payment in that week (or post comp to the winner).

Ah, you're thinking of something different. You're thinking along the lines of the Darts predictions comp going on at the moment, but this, so i don't think we'd get 8 players online enough between tomorrow and the off to get all the selections made.

Ah yes I remembered the format once you had the team but not the pick by pick nature at the start.
Maybe a more open selection process where there could be some crossover on having the same players
Ugh Fergal loses a gut wrenching decider after making a great comeback in the match and the actual decider.
He went into the final session 6-3 up and lost the next 6 to trail 6-9 before the comeback. After somehow getting back to 9-9 he trailed by about 50 in the decider but came back with a break to lead before breaking down and letting Maflin in to clean up the last few balls.
Fergal has had more than his share of bad beats but that must be the new lifetime sickener for Fergal.
Add this one to losing on the final black a few years ago as well as losing on a re-spotted black both in final frames, both in final qualifier for Sheffield. Gutted for my buddy...
Betfred have Ronnie enhanced from 2/1 to 3/1 to win the Worlds at the moment.
Boyles have moneyback as a free bet up to €55 if Trump wins. (Not available for deposits by Skrill though). Would transfers from poker to sportsbook make you eligible for this promo?
Boyles also doing MB as a free bet if your selection loses a final frame decider. Max €50. Betfair doing the same promo up to a max of €25
Would have liked to back Maflin against anyone else, but really want Selby to win. Maflin running so good though, and Selby turning to jelly. He needs a century to stop the rot and have a chance, because it's looking like Maflin at the moment.
Maguire/McGill game worth a watch if anyone at a loose end.
Maguire was 9-5 down and back to 9-8 now.
Was looking at Maguire's performance for the last 2 years (he went out in the first round both years)
2014 was 9-6 down to Ryan Day, came back to 9-9 and lost 10-9 (Day 92 break)
2013 was 9-8 down to Dechawat Poomjaeng, and got back to 9-9 before losing the decider.
More final frame heartbreak for Maguire on the cards?
