I'm there after work tomorrow and all day Thursday. Yet another round where it'll be hard to choose. Woollaston v Un-Nooh, Kurt v Davis and Jimmy v Xiao are the top 3 but the others are all interesting too

Do we know which matches will be televised? Some hard choices I think, particularly in the morning session of course.

I'd like Guodong v White and Lisowski v Wattana to be televised, but Davis and Maflin or even Woolaston v Un-Nooh would be good.

It's one of those sessions where any of the matches would make a good streamed match and there will be ones you want to see which aren't streamed. I'll be on Twitter as @snookerisland so if you want to know how any of them are going then ask me on twitter or @prosnookerblog as well.

Yes think so too, I reckon it'll be a quick and open match. Other crackers in this round are Woolaston and Un-Nooh, the latter that by all acounts has been playing well and will prove a difficult opponent for sure for Ben, Lisowski and Wattana another good match, as well as Gilbert and Drago I think cause Tony has found some form and is playing well and may also prove a challenge for Gilbert if he can maintain his form. But as we all know he could very well struggle to pot a ball tomorrow as his form is very inconsistent.

All in all,good matches we have in store for us.

Wenbo will drag it down, thats what he does. He is not fluent, he stalks the table a thousand times and is the most frustrating irritating horrible player on the circuit (virtually). <ok>
