That's one of watching mate, good find.....!!

The other is to watch it on one of the betting websites live streaming!!

Eurosports scheduling is so rubbish!!

Williams cruising along here, Ken looking understandably tense. Hope it's not a whitewash.

I was round my parents out, but they Sky Plussed Ken Doherty vs Patrick Einsle for me. Not much of a match. I got back in time to see Ken Doherty and Mark Williams last frame. Not much of a match there either.

[Ronnie's tip]

Suprised Gould went out.

I noticed that, wondered if it was a conscious thing. It soudned to me like he was trying to speak a little bit more slowly and clearly, and he was using a lower register of his voice, sort of trying to make things sound a little more dramatic.

I've been appreciating Neal Foulds work a little bit more of late. I didn't warm to him at first but I've started noticing how accurate and concise his calls are, lot less splashing around than some of the other commentators.

Agreed.

If it was up to me I'd have Parrot, Davis and Hendry rotating as pundits and Everton, Foulds, Hendry (great in both roles) and Virgo/Taylor (because I've grown up with them) as their back ups. Get rid of Docherty, Thorne, Griffiths.

Dennis Taylor annoys me these days. In every match he sucks up to the crowd "Great crowd here today", "The crowd here are always fair" ect ect.

I don't think the players like Virgo much. Mark Williams definately doesn't.

I was wrong

Im here to eat humble pie although i was almost right in the murphy match

Bad signs for Ding Junhui, he has shown very little so far. Pretty good stuff from Yu Delu on the other hand, looks like he isn't scared of taking Ding on.

Yes indeed, what about that pink into the yellow pocket! Very entertaining young player.

Yes, it's great that he finally got a crack at the Main Tour, after all those successful performances as a wildcard.

I hate to leave this match at 4-1, because it's either going to be a great victory for the underdog, or a great comeback. But what can you do...

[gazza147]

Yu Delu not on Main Tour Yet! Hes fighting to get on it but if he plays like he has this morning he wont be long before he does althou I do think Ding has Played the Worst I have Ever seen him play!

[LittleMissAlexa]

Yu Delu

I think you will find he is he along with Luca Brecel received tour wildcards this season
