World Snooker Championships Discussion

He's got a good chance against Rod Lawler hasn't he? It'll be horribly tough to make it to the main draw but a 3rd qualification round would do

[Terry Davidson]

Congratulations to our Frazz. I watched most of the match but took a lunch break at 7-6 and came back and it was over, dammit!!

I think a pro ticket for 2013/14 would be a just reward. Hell of a potter, great technique, kept cool under pressure...just what we want in the pro ranks

Just had to book another hotel as Frazz is through to which I'm delighted with.
He played top class match snooker to close out that match and as for the commentators supposedly saying he's
only here to make up the numbers well that proves them wrong.
Frasers been around for years and done a lot of hardwork for times like this.
Plus the fact he's no sponsor and virtually wasn't gonna enter due to lack of funds.
I think it makes him even more hungry to do well.
Day off the mora and plays now on Tuesday will be a tough match again but I know he can do it.

Will Fraser Patrick get any ranking pionts because he never played in the pre-qualifiers

[Holden Chinaski]

I'm very disappointed in Luca. He needs to work on his cue ball control and shot selection. Made some very stupid choices and ran out of position to much. Fraser Patrick played very good, he has a good temperament.

well done fraser. i went to the qualifiers and was watching the first part of that match. fraser played solid snooker first session was 4-0 although Brecel came back at him he kept his nerve and played well to claim a good victory , well done. lets hope he can get into round 3 now.

[mythman69]

Does Jimmy White have a good chance of beating Tian Pengfei? How is his form? Any ideas?

I would like to see him win this match . . .

I wonder should or would World Snooker offer Fraser Patrick a place on the 2013/14 tour sparing him the bother of Q School on the strength of his performances this season - about to be 9-6 - particularly as there doesn't seem to be many good continental European players they might invite instead,no one's said anything on whether Q School participants this year who don't get one of the 12 places will be invited to play in tournaments next season.

I thought the commentator on the Patrick/Brecel match (I forget, maybe Mark Johnston-Allen) and then Dave Hendon during tonight's match Advani/Swail both said Fraser Patrick will be on the main tour next year - although neither said how he'd qualified ... he sure deserves too, he looks like the "mustard" ...

What a great day's viewing ... first Patrick/Brecel and then Advani/Swail ... both great matches thoroughly enjoyed them both although it's a slight shame Advani seemed to give up for the last few shots ... the match deserved a decider but nevertheless well done to the Outlaw and Frazz ...

Appoligies if i've missed this info already but is there a link where I can just view the results of the qualifiers as they happen?

Thanks,its strange or funny depending on your outlook that World Snooker issued the 2012/13 Qualifying Criteria on 20th March 2012 yet they're still schtum on the 2013/14 when its a new system going into the unknown with flat 128's and the small matter of these qualifiers.
I agree Pankaj Advani is possibly a little too cautious at times although he has a great temperament and knack of getting out of trouble but the tactic's side only works so long against good players so he'll probably have to adopt a slightly more attacking approach over longer matches.

Thats great Will thanks mate. Nice to see Tony Knowles name there on the score sheet in round 2.

[Bigmeek]

Just noticed Jimmy White has gone 5-4 down. Match info says it's best pf 25. Thought qualifiers were best of 19?

[coomsey76]

Yeah I saw that......

Must be a typo cause I'm pretty sure there are still the best of 19.
