Bingham in first with a 66 break which left Carter needing a snooker he then missed a red, Carter cleared the reds bar 1 and got the snooker he required, he over cut the brown and safety battle ensued with Bingham 12 points ahead, Bingham fluked the brown to put him 16 ahead with 18 on, bingham missed a chance on the blue and carter pots blue and pink to go 5 behind with just the black on, which Bingham pots
very close game this. hard one to call. mistakes in cue positioning by both. frame 6 was very telling and bingham got it just. battle on the black is always a good way to settle a frame.
Bitty final frame both players missing balls they wouldn't usually miss, they both know how big this frame could prove to be currently Bingham is 47-45 ahead with just the colours remaining
Bingham has not shown up tonight so far Carter taken the opening two and as I write this Bingham has just missed when in amongst them in the 3rd frame of the session.
Before the tournament Neil Robertson promised a donation of £5,000 plus 100 for every century made in the event to WIRES the Australian Wildlife Rescue team.
World Snooker then agreed to match both amounts.
There were 18 centuries in the event
£6,800 due to be donated by Robertson £6,800 due to be donated by World Snooker
