Betway United Kingdon Championship Last 128 !!!!!

I watched the decider only. Pity for Igor, but what a poor "safety" shot did he play...

Left the room but came back to see Ding won.

Ding wins...

Hats off to Igor, played very well, but in the end that terrible attempted safety shot from him cost him the match.

Wouldnt surprise me much if Ding now went on to have a deep run in this, like he did in SHanghai when Mann should have beaten him..

It was Scott Donaldson in Shanghai not Mann, but Ding struggling with his first round matches far too often.

Mann up next against Wilson... I'm going to watch Trump / wattana though.

I'm going to see how Kyren plays after his collapse in NI open.

Did he?

No he mouthed something silently.

Does that come with the Prawn Crackers?

Negative, it comes with Pukka Pies instead.

I didn't see any of it, but I agree with Andre - Ding will probably go on and progress far in this tournament now! It happens so often with players who dodge-a-bullet in the early rounds!
Interestingly, Igor was beaten by Mark King in the opening round in last week's Northern Ireland Open - could be a good omen for Ding...

Wattana not looking confident here

And as I type that he takes a frame! 1 all

The best part is him saying 'Other players don't mess with me'

Kyren playing pretty poor at the moment 1- 0 to Mann with a chance to steal the second.

Yeah, so sorry for Igor, finally gets to play and King even looked like a good draw for him.

These flat draws can be pretty brutal for players like Igor.

Looking like he's the one who's being racist towards World Snooker in particular... WS, and especially Fergurson, have been doing all they can to bring Snooker to other areas in the Globe, and if you're good enough then you can make it. It's not WS fault there aren't any really good black players around to make the Tour and make ampact in the game.

Wattana 2-1 up... playing very well in recent times has to be said..

Mann does steal the second frame on the black.

Andre147 wrote:Wattana 2-1 up... playing very well in recent times has to be said..

How is he scoring? This season he's looked much more confident when in the balls, but safety has been letting him down a bit

Wilson 0-3 down to Mann.

Ding has almost gotten out I see.

I'll look a little bit Trump vs Wattana

Trump wins 6-2.. Wattana couldnt produce the goods he did earlier on after the MSI.

I reckon McLeod and Jones will playing on that table... in 4 and a half hours play they only played.... 7 frames!

Forza Tatiana!

I feel sorry for whoever is reffing that one.

I hope it's the German ref.

This guy Mitchell Mann is a younger and more dour version of Rod Lawler. Barry Hearn will be delighted to know he already has a ready made replacement for when Rod finally retires.
