Skullman wrote:Ebdon's played slightly better to win this frame. Still not playing great.

Absolutely,Ebdons been donkey poo for a good while now by his standards.


But lets not forget,he,s 43 so his decline is nothin surprising.

Gerard Greene 0-4 Ricky Walden
Jamie Cope 1-3 Michael Holt

Adi goes 3-1 up with a century. Hopefully he'll take the next frame pretty swiftly.

@ Hendry fan

Zhang Anda 3-1 up on Alan McManus

Apparently the Ding v Pinches match will not be streamed.


World Snooker

Ebdon still hanging. Amazing he's only 3-2 down considering how rubbish he's been.

Have they added a scoreboard yet for the live table streaming?

jesus christ what is Aditya playing at

Initial reaction was 'what's he on', then I remembered the over-dramatic map the BBC used. So I blame the BBC!

The offending map (which clearly should be fined by World Snooker):

Ebdon somehow hangs on and takes it to a decider.

Adi finishes the match with a century, his second of the match

Yep,good win Adi.


As i wrote earlier,Ebdons form has been very weak for a good while now,he did well to come back and force the decider,but it,s winning that counts and he did,nt today.


He,s at that age where it,s almost impossible to stop the plunge in form,he might win the odd match here and there but i really can,t see him being a "Force" on a regular basis anymore.

As said though, he's 43.

The fact that he can play like a mug, and still be competitive is an achievement in itself. It's a testmanet to Ebdon's determination.

Some interesting names reaching the last 32 under this Flat Structure Robbie Williams, Zhang Anda, Gary Wilson and Hammad Miah.

Hammad Miah didnt win a Match in Q School 2011 Losing to Oliver Lines and Gareth Allen twice all by 4 frames to 2.

did not play in Q School 2012

And before this season he hadent even played a single PTC Match then he Entered Q School 2013 and got on the Main tour in Q School 1 Beating seasoned campaigners Matthew Day and Kishan Hirani on the way and now in only his 4th Ranking Tournament on the Main tour hes in the Last 32 and a meeting with Aditya Mehta who actually beat him in the Shanghai Masters Last 128 5-0.

Pity it's not on telly, isn't it?
