Pios 8

[goldengirl]

ANY RESULTS PLEASE ?:snooker:

[Mignon]

Probably just prelim matches today...

[Brazilianirish]

According to the schedule of matches on global-snooker the whole first round should have been played today. But nothing has been updated...

[Alex0paul]

If Janie was at the World Final then I doubt she would have got to the PIOS today (yesterday).

[goldengirl]

And I assume Janie is staying in Sheffield for players meeting.

[LUFC]

A few results from yesterday include:

Steve Judd beating Stuart Carrington
Jamie Jones lost to Ian Glover
Shokat Ali scratched
Neal Jones lost to Robert Valiant
John Whitty lost to Shaun Wilkes.

This morning Justin Astley is 3 nil up on David Portman and Steve Judd is leading Jak Jones.

[LUFC]

Further result from yesterday Adam Wicheard beat Ian Brumby 4-1 and plays Alfie Burden today and Stephen Craigie has a bye into round 3 which gives him a great chance of claiming 8th spot in the rankings and a main tour place.

[LUFC]

Justin Astley has beat David Portman this morning, Steve Judd has beat Jak Jones and Ian Glover is 3-1 up on Liam Highfield,

1st round results for 1st quarter now on Global Snooker (thanks Janie) with 2nd round updates for this quarter too.

Early defeats for Jak, Jamie and Neal Jones

According to the schedule of matches on global-snooker the whole first round should have been played today. But nothing has been updated...

I haven't yet mastered the art of being in two places at once or stuck in traffic for hours either. Although Barry Hearn did brightly tell me on Monday night that it's mind over matter, but I haven't figured that one out yet.

Normal service is now resumed!

[JanieWatkins]

all up to date now, waiting for one match off first session this morning.

thanks Janie - looks like even more withdrawals than in previous years - maybe a qualifying school is a better option.

am I right in concluding that Paul Davison won't need to play again until the quarter finals!

The last two events always have a lot of withdrawals, especially the last event, but it can have a massive bearing on the rankings for the top players and those trying to get into the top 8.

It's a situation that is very difficult to address at end of season so maybe it is another good case for the qualifying school.

Liam has just gone out this morning and is gutted - After all there's a £3,000 first prize to be won and that is a very big pay day for an amateur player... wish I could play, I'd be trying my heart out to win and earn some dosh.

[snoopy2608]

so top 5 - Highfield, Lisowski, Davison, K Wilson and McGill definitely have qualified for main tour.

Jm Jones and O'Neill almost there.

nb. If Burden finishes in top 8 9th place qualifies for main tour too
