What is happening to Dott anyway ? Since his 'shock' exit in Sheffield his game and - even more - his attitude are very very poor. There has always been a lot of critic about Murphy but Dott is even worse it seems.

At the WS livscoring it´s still the names of the mondaymatches. Does anyone behind what names Hendry-Cope hide.

You should try to flush your cache or something, because it's actually (touch wood) working here, with the correct names and all.

Has Cope finally gotten used to the format? 1-0 to him over Hendry, with a very fine break of 78.

Maguire v Davies 1-0 too.

Is it Cope-Hendry on the "third" table on the livescoring?

Yes.

2-0 for Maguire and Cope both now. Hendry is really not looking too sharp today, so far I've seen a couple of badly missed long ones and a very bad safety, that let Cope in again and gave him the second frame. Well, he's in and on a break now, the reds are quite open and black's where it ought to be. C'mon!

Edit: having typed that, he broke down on 15 Safeties now.

Holtie v Dott 0-1
Fergal O'Brien v Ali Carter 0-2 (dear WSA, change the pic of Ali. He looks like something out of a cartoon)

Any update of the matches ? Can't connect to the live scoring

[Ellena]

Carter - O'Brien 3-0

Cope - Hendry 2-2
McLeod - Hawkins 1-0
Maguire -P. Davis 4-0

For those following on Live Scoring: Forget about it. They somehow have the completely wrong scores, at least if you are to believe the Eur commentators and the GSC site.

Hendry's fighting hard at the moment: 2-2.

From the GSC:

Graeme Dott 1-1 Michael Holt (EUR: 1-2)
Ali Carter 3-0 Fergal O'Brien (EUR: 3-1)
Anthony Hamilton 0-1 Marcus Campbell
Stephen Hendry 1-2 Jamie Cope (well, 2-2, really)
Stephen Maguire 3-0 Paul Davies (4-0)
Barry Hawkins 0-1 Rory McLeod (1-1?)

Great, thanks Ellena and Maija

[Maija]

Holt just won 4-1, according to Eurosport.

Only the colours are left on the table over at Hendry/Cope's. Cope in need of 3 snookers.

Transmission over!!

Anyone with access to the Beeb that would like to keep us informed?

[Monique]

For me livescorings seems to be alive 3-2 for Hendry.

[Maija]

Tapping into the Beeb source now

Hendry has gone one up, 3-2, against Cope.

@Sam: Good man

[Wim]

So still chances for Hendry to go to the second round ?

[Monique]
