I've only seen one match of Allen and one of Ding, but I have the feeling Allen may be too strong as well.

Mark's winning margins have been stronger in his matches this week.

No not had any iron bru lately, but it’s my favourite, Wilson had a great chance there but it was inevitable the dulby would win the decider, he’s winning them again unlike last season where a lot went against him, I still can’t abide watching him tho

Selby-Trump could be like the Robertson-Selby rivalry. They'd had barely any meetings for the first few years but then it became a great rivalry with some fantastic matches.

Trump has a 4:0 record over Selby in bo11 and longer matches. Even though they've only played one multi session match so far (China Open 2011).

If Trump plays at his best Selby will be helpless. Trumps peak game is clearly superior. In fact Selby even struggles to compete as he gets overpowered by his opponent. Just look at the last three results in the proper matches.

6:2,6:2, 5:1.

I wish to hear Ace's opinion on this.

The pockets were ridiculous last season.

So apparently Ding and Allen were on a respotted black for about 10 minutes? I turned it on and saw Ding play one shot, leaving it right over the middle pocket. buck sake.

Come on Ding!
