Due to the time difference and alot going on I havent been to up to date with the China Open but Neil Robertson won it with a 11-4 victory over Jack Lisowski
Stuart Bingham made Snookers 151st 147 and Stuarts 5th during the event, it puts Bingham joint 5th with Murphy on the list of most 147
I watched most of it all week - getting up early. Watched the first sessions of the final this morning to see Robertson lead 8-2. Then in the afternoon when the final session was going to be shown live on Eurosport they stayed with the motorcycle racing! Really annoying. They are showing highlights later but was a shame.

Slight off topic, I looked at betting on these qualifiers yesterday and choose 5/6 players who wasn't 1/10 on and only got back evens. Snooker betting is ridiculous, especially in these earlier rounds might have a look if there are closer games. Did also look to see if I can bet to qualify, couldn't find a market but only checked one site.

Michael Judge 8-7 Peter Lines this could go on till 2am if it goes to a final frame decider
Ended 10-9 Judge, says it ended 3:52am CET I believe that is a late one!
Not one shock for me on the first lot, nice to see Joe O'Connor keeping his form up would be nice for him to get there.
cheers.
I enjoyed last years one, giving double points Semis/Finals really gave a few extra people the opportunity and Paulie the chance to win late on
Do we want a separate thread? or keep on here like last time? Can start once we get in the final stages of qualifying.
@paulie8920 any input? Did you want to help run or do anything for this.
Ignore that just checked Betfair have odds gone for:
Hamilton
Perry
Davis
Day
Yankee
Created a new thread as this should be easier, for any interested get involved.
