How do the rankings work out for this event? There are seeded loser points for this event (for R1 it is 455), but there aren't any seeds are there? Do all players get full points?

my guess because the amateurs qualified the seeds ie 65-96 gets half points if they lose amataurs gets nothing obviously.

and for the last 64 Robertson playing Dott both seeded through to that round so the loser in that match gets 805 points same with Ebdon v Steve Davis

its a random draw quite simple really there is no seeds as such from last 64 onwards every man in a draw and pulled out at random.
