What happens with Ali? Yesterday he played well (extremely well) for 3 frames then collapsed completely ... And today I can't watch but the score is telling me about a repetition of the scenario (only worse!)

[Anastasia]

I hear that he have a problems with health .

[doorag]

How'd ding do today?

[snooligan]

How'd ding do today?

He beat Dom 4-2!

[toupihiggins]

Robertson - Swail one of the worst game i've ever seen...very low quality so far...Robertson doen't deserve to qualify if he plays that way...i hope doherty will beat him tomorrow

[The Boss]

Drago up next against the Shark Selby. I've gone for a 4-2 to the Boss. He can't qualify but beating the Masters Champion would be sweet indeed. Don't forget the Horses head incident at the UK Championship. It will be intriguing and tense

[missneworleans]

Yes come on Ken! And Stephen!

[Semih_Sayginer]

ive quite liked the format and its kept my interest more than past group play 'startoffs' to tournaments

[Anastasia]

This was a great pleasure for me to watch Hendry-Maguire match

[Alex0paul]

Anyone who wants a flutter, Ding is 7/2 to beat Mark Williams and if it ends a draw you get your money back! Must be a mistake as Williams is 1/6.

7/2 for ding??is that correct??oh my god..the odd in other bookie is not higher than 1.60...will the bet be void after they know that the odd is incorrect?

[snookersfun]

this shall start to get interesting today at Table 1: I am just trying to figure out who needs to do what in order to get through to the semis

and now edited (considering the points, much easier that way)

John Higgins v Joe Perry
the winner of this game will definitely get through, a draw will see John Higgins through.

2pm

Ken Doherty v Neil Robertson
again a definite through for the winner, Ken through for the draw (nobody else in contention)



Shaun Murphy v Stephen Hendry
Murphy through for win or draw

8pm

Ding Junhui v Mark Williams
this group is between Dom and Ding, Ding win or draw will see him through
