Barry Pinches vs Joe Delaney 4-3
Rod Lawler vs Mark Allen 3-4
Dave Harold vs Mike Dunn 3-3
John Parrott MBE vs James Leadbetter 5-3
Marcus Campbell vs Passakorn Suwannawat 5-1
Dominic Dale vs Andrew Norman 3-5
Ricky Walden vs Andrew Higginson 4-4
Jimmy White MBE vs Jamie Burnett 3-5


Looks like JP is playing well but Jimmy needs to win the final frame against Burnett.

Second session starts at 4.00pm.

Some very interesting games.

Pinches been woeful all season, needs a good win or two really but always does better in longer games

Allen showing some of his class to be 3 up

Harold grinding it out against Dunn, good on yer Dave

JP won 5 in a row against Leadbetter, a good sign

Walden and Higginson as tight as was expected

Jimmy goes 3-2 up with a century and then loses 4 in a row (I don't understand it, he's hitting it so well in practice)

Could be a good night's snooker... Anyone going down to Prestatyn for it?

I won't arrive in time!

Seriously, it'd be nice to see Pinches in Sheffield and not only for his waistcoat. He's shown some good matches there...

There could be some close games in there by the looks of it. Higginson looks to be going 7-5 ahead, Burnett 8-4 ahead and JP's won 6 out of 7!!

[Aggrolite]

Burnett 9-4. Looks like a limp end for Jimmy this season for the world champs.

[snookersfun]

Barry Pinches vs Joe Delaney 6-5
Rod Lawler vs Mark Allen 4-9
Dave Harold vs Mike Dunn 10-3

Now hands up all those people who would have predicted the game involving Dave Harold to be the one that finished first!!

Go on Dave...
