I'm back at the EIS tomorrow from around midday. Follow me on @snookerisland twitter for updates on the non-streamed matches.

Stand out player this evening was of course Kurt Maflin. I tipped him for the Crucible but unfortunately I've heard stories about how much practice Ebdon has been putting in at the Star Academy therefore I'm afraid Kurt's run may be at an end through facing the toughest of the 16 round 4 seeds. Don't forget last year Ebdon was outside the top 16 and had to qualify and he destroyed Alfie Burden 10-0. He won't 10-0 Kurt but I wouldn't be surprised if he wins with daylight.

That said, I will be rooting for Kurt like a madman! He is class. I managed to get a couple of team mates to make the trip down from York, the thought of watching Jimmy is what brought them. When Jimmy won they were about to leave and I said to them "Come and watch Kurt just for this frame, he's class" at the time Kurt was on about 24 so we went and watched and he made pretty much a total clearance, playing a showman shot on the last black which missed. And what about that break to seal the win? That brown! little kitten me! How many players would've taken that on in a world championship qualifier against Steve Davis? Best break of the event so far by a mile!

Just posting my report on here. As you'll see I've been doing reports from Day one of the Qualifiers, just not had the time to branch out and put them on here - but now I have so here goes.

Below is my report for The Old Green Baize of tonight's action as Jimmy White soldiers on but Steve Davis

Seems like Maflin could be one to keep an eye on in the future. Played very well today against the six-times world champion.

Qualifiers now getting to the business end which is great to see - loving it!

All the best,
Nigel.
