Pot Black – predict here

[The Statman]

This is the thread on which you should make your predictions for all rounds of the Pot Black tournament.

Please note the Rules (http://www.thesnookerforum.com/showthread-t_1084.html), particularly Rule 4 concerning the deadline, Rule 6 concerning the layout of your post, Rule 7 concerning alterations, and Rule 10 concerning your and my responsibilities.

The deadline is the scheduled start of play, which is [time to be confirmed] on Saturday 2 September 2006.

IMPORTANT NOTES CONCERNING POT BLACK PREDICTIONS

The line-up below lists all possible matches in alphabetical order. Because all rounds are being held on the same day, all predictions need to be made in advance.

There will still be a winner for each of the three rounds, plus an Overall Pot Black Predictor Champion.

Therefore, please predict the score – either 1-0 or 0-1 – alongside each pairing here, followed by the predicted highest break for the last 8, the semi-finals and the final.

Scoring will be 1 point for correct result; 0 points for incorrect result.

This tournament will be excluded from the Seasonlong Handicap Contest.

Here is the draw: Remeber, best-of-1, EITHER 1-0 or 0-1.

Those marked in blue are the first-round matches, but you should still predict all pairings shown.
