Betfred World Championship Qualifying Rnd 3(April 14th-15th)

JJ

WOW, what a blob from KENDO

Big frame coming up for Ants. Can't really afford to go 6-3 down against an experienced grinder like King.

Between then and now he dropped off the tour and got back on and a win tomorrow would place him back in the top 64

Joe 99.99% sure to be in the top 64 even if he loses!

The link worked thanks pool boy

Alan McManus comfortably leads Mitchell Mann by 6 frames to 2.

You should consider changing yours also. Or the Operation Yewtree team may raid your house.

Mark King 5-4 Anthony McGill
Adam Duffy 3-5 Jamie Jones
Mitchell Mann 3-6 Alan McManus
Ryan Day 6-3 Jak Jones
Yu De Lu 5-4 Graeme Dott

I think they make a great couple! :P

I expected a Mavis win, but not so easy.

he is 5-4 Behind lol


you are a so negative

I would have worried more at 6-3 or 7-2 but 5-4 is nothing. If he plays well enough he can win. We will see.

Dark Mavis.

Zhang on stream tonight? Interesting one.

Who does everybody think will win?

Liang will win easily. A routine 10-5 or 10-6 job, imo.

My views may be coloured by the fact Armchair hammer has a man crush on Zhang, but I think Liang will win by half a dozen frames. His game is far too strong for the disappointing Zhang.

Last years, I always feel like McManus is MIA in the whole season and suddenly he is GOAT-ing in the end of the season and plays in Crucible.

Exciting.......30 minutes till stream time.

Plenty of time for you to post more gibberish on the thread.

But like most real snooker fans, I will be cheering on Liang. As he is the only qualifier - apart from M. Davis - who has a chance of winning his first round match at Sheffield.

Calm your bullocks, most of them can win their first round matches.

I actually think the seeds out in the first round record will be broken this year.

There are always upsets at the Crucible in the first round...

'Calm your bullocks' <- hahaha :)

You should place a bet on that outcome.

Armchair hammer? Man crush? Absolute bucking muck

No I'm happy with several of the names in my yearly "if one of these dozen wins I'll at the very least make the money back" going out in the qualifiers. Cheers Poomjaeng.

Judging by the breaks they had, I also agree with that the Dotty v Delu match should have been streamed instead of Stevens v Swail.

It looks like a tremendous match so far full of high quality and has all the makings of going all the way.

Yeah, I would have definitely gone with Dott and Delu. No disrespect to Stevens or Swail, but they're not the most exciting these days.
