Here is the Final table for the Northern Ireland Open - those who predicted Trump as a finalist receive a further three points to their tally following his win this evening.

69 PLTHEREF 17 - 8
68 MCMANUSFAN 19 - 8
66 CHENGDUFAN 22 - 8
48 JUDDERNAUT88 19 - 6

Here we go with Leg 3!

Welcome everyone to the Scottish Open - Leg 3 of the Home Nations Prediction Contest for this season.

A reminder on the rules below:
- Each entrant shall have 30 picks to use across the prediction contest. These can be placed on any of the 127 matches due to take place in each event.
- Players will be given a points value based on their seeding with players ranked higher being worth fewer points than those ranked lower. - Players seeded in the top 32 will be worth one point, 33-64 worth two points, 65-96 three points and 97+ worth four points. Any amateurs in the draw shall be worth six points.
E.g.4-4 Mark Selby (1pt) v Fan Zhengyi (4pts)
- You receive the points value for the respective player you pick should you correctly predict them to win.
- Correct scoreline predictions in Best of 7 matches score 2 points, Best of 9 and 11 Frame matches scores 3 points and in a Best of 17 Frame match scores 5 points.
- Nominate two players to reach the Final: 6 points for the tournament winner, 3 points for the runner-up
- In the event of a tie, the player with the highest number of correct scores shall be placed higher, followed by correct winners and if still tied by the largest number of picks remaining.




Home Nations competition

At the end of each contest, the top 8 entrants shall be awarded points to a Home Nations Series Ranking:
1st place: 24 points
2nd place: 16 points
3rd place: 12 points
4th place: 8 points
5th place: 6 points
6th place: 4 points
7th place: 2 points
8th place: 1 point

For each player, their highest finish in an event shall count double. If a player achieves the same highest position in more than one event, then the event they achieved their best score will count double.

Similarly to the Northern Ireland Open, any entrant to have taken part in more than one Home Nations contest will receive double points for their best showing in an individual contest.

Good Luck everyone!

Here is the first update of the Scottish Open. The table is correct following the conclusion of the Mark Allen v Jimmy White match. - None of Mack501's predictions have played yet, hence why his score is marked - rather than 0.

McManusFan takes the early lead by virtue of having two correct scorelines to ChengduFan's 1.

Neil Robertson's withdrawal from the event means that those who predicted him as a finalist now have their reserve prediction used. - Likewise, those who have predicted on Robertson's First Round match have had their prediction 'refunded'

Table after Allen v J White
13 McMANUSFAN 3 - 2
13 CHENGDUFAN 4 - 1
9 PLTHEREF 2 - 1
0 JUDDERNAUT88 0 - 0

The number of predictions on the list includes predictions made including for matches which as of yet haven't finished or been played. These are accurate to this post.

Total predictions: 15 (Jack Lisowski withdrawn so hope that prediction doesn't count and means I can make another one to replace that.

That's correct. Lisowski's match doesn't count towards the predictions so that one can be used again.
