Bank of Communications OTO Shanghai Masters WC & Last 32 !!!

Come on Whitey!!!

Decider alert between Robbo and Mike White. Robbo was 3-0 up.

Neil will kill this match off now.

White has less than 50% win ratio in deciders.

7.30am

Neil Robertson 4-4 Michael White TV
Graeme Dott 5-2 Yan Bingtao TV
Joe Perry 4-2 Martin Gould
Stuart Bingham 4-3 Li Hang

Safety battle in the decider, since Robbo missed an easy long red. Let's see.

Robbo in first, but can only make 17.

Good chance for Mike now.

Can only see kicks or a choke stopping Mike now.

Neil has had plenty of chances he hasent taken them

Michael White is 10 days younger than Jack Lisowski but he has definitley Overtaken Jack as the real Potential.

And White has taken it, barring three snookers.

Great play by White, who needed a win against such a big name to gain self confidence for the future. Well done!

7.30am

Neil Robertson 4-5 Michael White

Not so much of a surprise really as I am led to believe the youngster has some good credentials already in the sport.
Graeme went 3-0 pretty easily, 60 odd in each frame. Missed a gettable pink for 4-0 so gifted a 3-1 interval lead. Them he went completely off the boil for 3-2 but pulled it back together for 5-2. As for Bingtao, well he could pot a ball, that's for sure but apart from the fifth frame he never really caused any serious trouble. If he is 14 he is a big 14

Allen 2-1 Higginson

Selby 4-1 Doherty
Fu 1-3 Zhao
Maguire 4-1 Robertson
Allen 3-2 Higginson

Stephen Maguire through to the L16. 5-1 over Jimmy Robertson.

As a fan of the Gentleman, I am saddened that he kinda lost his way after the defeat in the Wuxi final. Losing from 5-4 from 4-1 shows a lot of things, although I wasn't able to watch the match against Gould -who is another likeable player, though.

Selby 4-2 Doherty
Fu 2-4 Zhao
Allen 4-3 Higginson

Higginson ran a 49 break but now it's Allen's turn (as I see on worldsnooker.com live scores).

Fu pulls one frame back (3-4).

Mark Selby 5-2 Ken Doherty
Marco Fu 3-4 Zhao Xintong
Stephen Maguire 5-1 Jimmy Robertson
Mark Allen 5-3 Andrew Higginson

Back to see only Zhao v Fu left (and that Sky+ didn't record the Selby match )

Young Xintong has a chance to clear for match here, although there are two awkward reds.

Decider alert between Fu and Zhao, barring snookers.
