Snooker

Not only did Thepchaya Un Nooh lose in the final round of qualifying but astonishingly he missed the final black for a 147 for the second time this season .

Doh .

Ebdon !!!!!!!!!!! I'm a happy bunny. Even though the scruffy tramp that is Anthony Hamilton lost

I'm pleased for Dott, Day and McManus anyway.

I just hope Maguire loses 10-0 in the first round without potting a single ball .
Can't stand him .

Or maybe it's better that he loses 10-9 on a respotted black after leading 9-0. That would leave me in stitches .

World Championship first round draw:

Stuart Bingham v Ali Carter
Stephen Maguire v Alan McManus
Ricky Walden v Robbie Williams
John Higgins v Ryan Day
Judd Trump v Liang Wenbo
Martin Gould v Ding Junhui
Mark Williams v Graeme Dott
Neil Robertson v Michael Holt
Shaun Murphy v Anthony McGill
Marco Fu v Peter Ebdon
Barry Hawkins v Zhang Anda
Ronnie O'Sullivan v David Gilbert
Mark Allen v Mitchell Mann
Joe Perry v Kyren Wilson
Michael White v Sam Baird
Mark Selby v Robert Milkins

Nasty draw for Bingham that .

Match of the round for me is Perry v Wilson.
Should be a quality match

Reigning Champion Stuart Bingham is out of this year's tournament, beaten 10-9 by Ali Carter.

Bingham came back from 1-5 down and 5-8 down to lead 9-8 but Carter took the last 2 frames to win an excellent match.

Marco Fu stuffed Peter Ebdon - good

Anthony McGill has beaten Shaun Murphy 10-8

Aww missed the second half of the bingham v carter match glad he won good to see him back after the cancer hope he can progress far in the tournament
