Yep, nice win for Jimmy and i had a cheeky tenner on him to win 5-3

[Mignon]

Well, qualifiers are certainly sparking a lot of interest here...
Maybe the forum should be named The Cue Forum after all...

True. It's nice, and by the way, is there anyone surprised to see The Outlaw coming back to form once again?

A fantastic win mate. Great ranking points. Jims getting very close to top 48. Fantastic!

[Rane]

Steve Davis lost to Wattana. He could be on his way out of top 48. And Wattana´s keeping his chance of remaining on the tour alive.

[Mr Snooker]

yes indeed i feel sorry for Steve but well done James and let's hope he can beat Mark Davis to get to China, and if Steve does not make it through the qualifiers in the world championships I think he may consider retirement or may even retire at Sheffield if he qualify's and that will be a sad day for snooker for us all.

[the montrealer]

HI does anyone know if Osullivan is playing in the China Open 2011 maybe someone knows cheers leonard from Canada

[chasmmi]

I am relying on him not saying anything till the day the match is supposed to take place as the second that his first round opponent is finalised I am running to my nearest bookies and betting 1 maybe even 2 pounds that he gets knocked out in the first round.

Steve will find it tough going to win 2 matches back to back to qualify maybe Lisowski then Stephen Lee.

hes not winning frames easy and he needs 20 to get to the crucible i honestly cant see him ever playing there again.

sad indeed
