TC, are you going to post the draw tomorrow at 12 ish ? I am around if you aren't able to do it

Darren Lethem · 16/04/14 - 20:43

Peter Ebdon on a 147. Got 10 reds and blacks so far

EDIT - Jinxed him. Broke down in the 80s

Jamie Burnett through now. Ebbo 8-9 down

Amanda_Raymond · 16/04/14 - 20:50

Jamie Burnett through beaten Ben Woollaston 10-8

DUNDEEBOY · 16/04/14 - 20:52

Will we still have the prediction competition as usual on here although I appreciate it's very short notice in relation to the draw

Its already up in the Sports Games section Dundeeboy.

Well a spirited fightback from Ebbo but well done Robin Hull. He wins 10-8

Amanda_Raymond · 16/04/14 - 21:07

Robin Hull qualifying for the first time since 2002

clarky323 · 16/04/14 - 21:11

Brilliant story to see Robin Hull qualify for the crucible! Very well done to him!!

Barracute · 16/04/14 - 21:44

Yes well done to Hull, great victory for him, so 3 players have made it all the way from qualifying round 1 and Robbie Williams could be about to make it 4 as he leads Fergal O'Brien 9-8 in the very last Qualifying match to finish this year

Just to whet the appetite, the collection of pics I've taken from 2008 to 2013:

Thanks - enjoying your pics. They're making me somewhat homesick - I went to uni in Sheffield and loved the city. I'm really hoping to move back there sometime in the not too distant future.

Where is Elanor? She is a big snooker fan.

I'll put mine up in the comp, but you can do the main thread if you like

Hayden · 16/04/14 - 22:16

I reckon that final qualifying round has turned out just about perfectly - a good mix of established names and newcomers through to the Crucible.

I don't think I've even heard of Wasley but he must have some plums to do what he did tonight. Can't wait for Saturday!

EPY · 16/04/14 - 22:48

Re-spotted black in the final frame between Fergal and Robbie!

Terrence Chant · 16/04/14 - 23:00

Matt @ prosnookerblog's ball by ball coverage adding to the tension

Edit: sounded like another cracking black to seal victory!

Barracute · 16/04/14 - 23:05

Incredible finish to that match, how many shots on the respot black did it take

:o

Welll Robbie Williams is the 4th player to make it all the way from rd 1 to the Crucible !

I hope we get some exciting finishes at the Crucible like that !

deivu74 · 16/04/14 - 23:08

Nice to see Jamie Cope in. He's gone off the boil the past couple of years.

clarky323 · 16/04/14 - 23:10

what an incredible night of snooker! two re-spotted blacks in the deciding frames, we were talking earlier about the 128 format, well I for one miss this qualifying drama, maybe once a year makes it even more dramatic!

yeah he's great to watch when he's on form, hopefully he can put whatever problem's he's had behind him and have a good run in the World's.

he made two centuries during the qualifying campaign, 8 this season, same total as last season, 8 in a season is not good really comparing to other players so as I said, hopefully he's turned a corner.

I have tickets for semi final '2' (Saturday 3rd May, 7pm). Is it possible for O'Sullivan to be in this semi, or will he drawn in the first half of the draw, and therefore be in semi '1' (assuming he gets there)?

He is top half of the draw. The first 8 names in the seeded list are top half and the rest are bottom half

Amanda_Raymond · 17/04/14 - 11:43

Ronnie is the more decent half of the draw, Ding probably his stiffest competition there, maybe Hawkins

Hey there!
