  • Zak Surety (ENG) 29-0 Liam Pullen (ENG)

    Surety is taking full advantage of a chance given to him here.

    He seems to be cueing well and all his pots are going down the middle of the pocket.

    Gets a bit unlucky with the splash into the pack and misses a red to the middle pocket.

  • Thepchaiyaa Un-Nooh (IND) 0-63 Aaron Hill (IRE)

    That was a solid performance from the Irishman.

    Some wild shots from Un-Nooh who really didn't get started but everytime he gave his opponent a chance he was duly punished.

    Hill will fancy his chance in this tournament even more so now.

  • Aaron Hill beats Thepchaiyaa Un-Nooh

  • Thepchaiyaa Un-Nooh (IND) 0-18 Aaron Hill (IRE)

    Big chance for the Irishman in this one.

    Un-Nooh really hasn't got into his stride whatsoever in this one.

  • David Gilbert beats Shaun Murphy

  • Shaun Murphy (ENG) 0-73 David Gilbert (ENG)

    Gilbert is on fire in this one.

    Murphy is unlikely to get another shot it seems.

    What a frame of snooker that was.

    He needed the blue for victory and just struck it with the cue ball in time as he rompted to a two point victory.

    Scenes.

  • Andrew Higginson beats Hossain Vafaei

  • Hossein Vafaei (IRA) 55-15 Andrew Higginson (ENG)
