I see the other lads got through to the losers qualification round...got some tough draws.
I think Daz is playing Corey Duel again, Chris has got Gabica and Dazzler has got Lofty......unless they re-draw and mix them all up - not sure.
Mark got Dennis at 17:00 BST this evening - it's gonna be a toughie for him...
Anyways, good luck to all the guys and lets see if we get all the brits into the last 32 SE.

And regarding the poll on the front page about who will win the World 8-Ball, I'm surprised you haven't got Shane Van Boening's name in there. I think he's going to be there or thereabouts when it comes to the end of the tournament. Best wishes thecardman

I was going to make it a "which European will do best" type thing but I rushed it... Looks like it's being spoiled by spammers again too!

Great result - Go Marksman I actually think 8 Ball is Mark's best game. He won the Barnsley Open last year, which included Peach, Boyes, Majid, Melling, Hill etc and of course he won the first ever EPT too. So long as he has the break sorted it really suits his game. He might not have the best looking break in the game but Mark's not daft, he knows what he's doing with the break shot and that's why he's doing so well. Well done pal!

Out of all the draws you could get, I mean. Plus this is 8 Ball, lets not forget...I hear Dyno is quite good at that
