Morning, baize brigade - all well?

Here's our morning session today:

Joe Swail v Liang Wenbo / Stuart Bingham v Joe Perry

Later on, of course, it's the resumption of Ronnie v Williams and Robertson-Maguire.

How do you see 'em going?

ALI CARTER IS A LEGEND!!! Well done, chokey. You've finally rid yourself of that tag. Wonderful break.

And now CARTER has done it - 147 in the very next frame; phenomenal!

Someone said he was making up the numbers the other day. LOL!

Put that Bentley on hold again Ronnie!! First time ever two maximums in one tournament, what a day's snooker this has been!

The first round was a thriller all the way, the second round more subdued, the tournament has exploded into life again.

Those who moaned about the quality had best visit the humble pie factory!

Perhaps we will get a Day 12 thread tomorrow!!

Two vital frames now for Day if he is to get back into this match. 11-5 game over.
9-7 game very much on!

Fascinating match between hendry and day here, but the standard of snooker is bordering on pathetic

Well done Hendry, but only three 50+ breaks in 16 frames. I thought he showed first signs of fatigue today. Not good given the potential schedule ahead. Am with you Nige I'd love to see him go all the way, but somehow I think age is beginning to take its toll.

We shall see!

Well Done Hendry, hopefully he will close the game out tomorrow comfortably. Also let me say well done Ali Carter, although the match is still very tight. Ebdon is still capable of winning.
