Day made it 6-3 with a 145, the top break so far.

AddicksAddict

Joe Perry v Mark Allen
Kyren Wilson v Jamie Jones
John Higgins/Thepchaiya Un-Nooh v Jack Lisowski
Ricky Walden v Judd Trump/Chris Wakelin
Ding Junhui v Anthony McGill/Ryan Day
Lyu Haotian v Barry Hawkins
Mark Williams/Jimmy Robertson v Neil Robertson/Robert Milkins
Ali Carter v Ronnie O'Sullivan

Only one of those is, I think, hard to call, Wilson v Jones because Jones has it in him to be a top ten player. All the others should be straightforward.

9 correct - Me
8 correct- @paulie8290 @MrOneLung @LawrieAbrahams @johnny73
7 correct- @Sir_Clive @Addickted @AddicksAddict
6 correct- @stackitsteve

Not bad from 14 so far, 2 to play - All of us have Trump so really Day/Mcgill which might change that.

McGill is such a battler. Must be horrible to play against

Wow just had a look at the result, he was 8-5 down, also up against it. Sounds like Day threw it away a bit but fairplay to him.

1 more to go now

johnnybev1987

@paulie8290 you are now down for ding to win now, let me know if you want me to change it.

@Sir_Clive you stated Day, obviously he lost so default would be Mcgill unless you state otherwise prior to the match starting.

@stackitsteve you have said Ding to lose regardless so you have Mcgill to win.

Addickted2TheReds

Missed the boat, whoops.

Trump in a deciding frame shoot out.

@johnnybev1987 If Trump loses I'm going for Walden.

Ronnie's safety all over the place in the sixth frame. Didn't see the first five but it's not looking good.

at 3-3 , wouldn't matter too much even IF he lost last 2 frames of the session imo , this early session is more important for Ali to keep with ROS. Tonights will be the one which will be key and i imagine Ronnie will go into it knowing this and win the majority of the frames, if playing 8 can see him winning 6.

On a side note, i have been looking at snooker.org for live updates/scores. I normally do but some of the people on there today proper insulting Carter constantly because obviously Ronnie isn't smashing him, disgusting behaviour especially considering what Ali has gone through.

So, can Ronnie outscore Carter 6-3? My money would be on Carter to see it through.

paulie8290

Weird scenes in Sheffield Carter and O'Sullivan bumped into each other and it turned into a bit of an arguement and the ref had to get involved.

I know I am biased but it seemed like Ronnie stuck his Elbow out as Carter walked past.

Edit: Looking on twitter most agree it was Ronnie who stuck his elbow out

Just done the programme and large screen in Tudor Square outside the Crucible. Ronnie will smash it this year.

Gotta say i disagree.

Said it before and will say it again
He wont win the worlds again.

5 matches over more than 1 session in a row he doesnt have to mental ability to cope.

Shorter events are so much better for him.

Ronnie's playing mind games I reckon.

My shilling is on him for the World's this year.

For me the proof is in the pudding.

Yes I dont like Ronnie
Yes I Think he is an arrogant twat
Yes to me Hendry is the GOAT

But honestly look at the facts
He has not won a worlds since 2013
No final since 2014
2015-quarter final exit 13-9 to Stuart Bingham
2016-2nd round exit 13-12 to Barry Hawkins
2017-quarter final exit 13-10 to Ding Junhui
2018-2nd round exit 13-9 to Ali Carter

Not got past the quarters in 3 years yet still the bookies favourite

4 years with no semi final now,

As I have said time and time again he wont win another world title

I think you're right. He had a good chance this year but didn't play well at all.
