what do you think are selty's chances of beating jimmy michie today ?

Will be a close one, didn't think that he would beat Hicks yesterday to be honest, very good win that.

Sangnil is doing well but for me he has had a pretty good draw. Wattana who isn't the player he once was, Roe who won two matches all season in 2008/9 and now Gunnell who hasn't won since last December. Be interesting to see how he gets on against some of the more in form players.

Jimmy Robertson: A new star in our midst?????

am i right in saying he's been on the tour before when he was very very young? 5 years ago or so?

he's early 20's now aint he?

[Matt_2745]

Yeah this is his third spell on the tour now. Good player, gave Ricky Walden a tough game the other day before going down 4-3.

Going well for Selt so far, 3-0 up.

Oh! I see Jimmy's from Sussex! I'll just have to support him now

To whitewash Mike Dunn is very impressive.

Mathew Selt is really making progress in confidence and if he can beat michie he plays Steve Davis....that will be a test for him but i think he is with a great chance of getting to his first venue and a match against Proberbly a wild card before a meeting with the World Champion John Higgins.

[Matt_2745]

White is playing well, 3-3 with Mark Davis at the moment. Be very impressed if he can win that as Mark is no mug.

[Matt_2745]

Martin Gould through 5-0, very good.

Disappointing to see Michael White out, but well done to Mark Davis that was a good win for him..

[wildJONESEYE]

Lee Spick after so long banging his head against the wall in qualifieng is starting to get somewhere he beats judge 5-1 and plays Stephen Lee tomorrow

[wildJONESEYE]

Selt wins 5-1

[superaussie]

good luck selty against steve davis tomorrow
