Here is the latest update as we reach the half-way stage in the World Championships. TheCleaver's great day today sees him move top of the table by virtue of having one more prediction with the correct score than SteveJJ. Nice_Shoes_Ken is also on 109 points, whilst Alex0Paul, the first winner of a Snooker Island World's prediction contest back in 2010 now moves into fourth place with his 13 points today.

With a full house backing Selby to beating Wilson, the points today came from those who predicted a Gilbert win over Williams, with the vast majority predicting a Maguire win over Cahill, just three went for a win for Gilbert. Two predicted within one frame of 13-9.

Christ, it's like being allowed to wander around a jungle quite happily and then getting a phone-call with a 5 minutes notice to say they're just dropping a cougar in.

The Lion is stirring it would seem. 44 surely that's a record for a single day at a World Championship. The only time it could have been beaten is on the opening Sunday when 5 matches end.

Fair play. Dependent on how the other results are (about nine to do -) but you've closed the gap between you and the leaders from 30 points down to nine

Here is the latest table at the Conclusion of the Second Round. It looks to be turning into a real scrap now as today's results have seen some rather high scores and people shooting up the leaderboard. This table includes 3 points deducted for a 147 maximum prediction for Stuart Bingham. Again TheCleaver leads the way, but it is by just one correct score.

On Wednesday night I'll post the Bonus predictions and who has got what left in contention ahead of the 1 table situation.

Scores can be higher today given that there are four finishes but Tonight's shout-out has to go to Wildey, who recorded a perfect 44 point score today for predicting a 13-11 Wilson win, 13-9 Carter win, 13-9 Trump win and a 13-11 Higgins win. I shouldn't comment on who got second, but they were the other person to get all four winners, but without a score though two were a frame out. (Quite how I've got 32 points in a day given my prediction form this year so far is anyones guess) This table doesn't include any deductions of bonuses.
