Game on! this is the perfect set up for a contest, still have a feeling once Trump is underway but stranger things have happen, would be a massive shock like similar to Cahill beating Ronnie last year.
I should say in 2014 World Championship one of the 3 previous events that Tom Ford qualified for and lost in the first round he actually faced Trump and lost 10-8.
I wonder if we could have the same scoreline today

They also stated before he beat him in qualifying for the crucible which was a race to 10. Its not impossible, just needs to keep Judd quiet. Once trump gets in he is unstoppable sometimes, a bit nervy early on here Ford needs to make the most of it.
Barry Hearn heavily criticising Anthony Hamilton again in BBC interview
I am watching it on Eurosport, should just let it lie now really both sides have their point. If they keep talking about it, will not be good for Snooker. Personally Anthony Hamilton is thinking of himself and his safety, he is high risk (asthma, like myself) and if its his decision not to play he shouldnt be nullified for it. At first i didn't like it, but its his health /life so noone can really criticise. Just a shame all round really and then it means there is a bye.
The other table looks proper scrappy one, no breaks over 50. Not watching it but based on the scores of the opening 3 frames: 59-35 Bingham 63-19 Carty 62-19 Bingham
The main table, has been a joy to watch a few twists and high quality. A few misses too so enjoying it!
Trump just holds back a bit and sticks to safeties he should still win this. Ford tends to win when frames are open, Trumps saftey game has come on so much thats why he won last year, before he didn't have the arsenal.

As I said previously, I can see both sides of the argument.
Hamilton is a severe Asthma sufferer & has every right to pull out of the event if he doesn't feel safe.
BUT
Hearn is also right to say he should never have entered qualifying if he wasn't going to play in the event. Hamilton has entered the event just to earn a few £ from qualifying, but in doing so, has robbed another professional of the chance to play in the World Championship at The Crucible, which is every snooker players dream
Ford has had chances to keep Trump under the cosh but has started looking nervous.
yep both frames trump has won, i assume. Ford has been in first, this frame was a massive mistake and last one left them all on. Trump just plays safety game first then mop up he will win easy. Easy enough to say it but that should be the plan imo
I think paulie might be off now, so ill update the scores where possible 3-1 Bingham goes into the interval (Again no 50+ break yet) Trump pulls back another to make it 3-2 to Ford
