Too high % chance Razma stinks out his match. King is quality, usually plays at a good pace and is humourously grumpy.
Whilst I agree, at least somewhat.
I'd just prefer the new face, who has been playing somewhat decently as of late.
He's not playing that well in reality, only averaged 92 for the day on his run to the final and averaged 90 or less (actually on spot on 90 and the others below) in 4 of his 7 games that day.

It's just that he's likeable, which i agree with but don't think he's up to standard for a tournament like the WGP yet.

King is good for an upset or two but not the best to watch and doesn't have too big a future in the game. I'll agree that Razma hasn't proved that he's up to the standard though. I'd much rather have Clayton than them, maybe even Jeff Smith

And before you repeat yourself thegentle, yes if Dobey wins this then he might still qualify but come on how likely is that.
Well Jamie Hughes won the last event before the cut-off for Blackpool last year to come from nowhere, so anything is possible! But yes, Razma is currently not in a qualification spot, and if Clayton wins and banks his £3k, de Zwaan will be out barring the unlikely. Dobey himself is not totally safe, but it would need a strong run from someone for it even to be theoretically possible to knock him out
I'd still favor Pisspot (who would go out of top 16) on TV over any of the others that would be in contention if Dobey won the thing.

With the smallest possible exception of Jeff doing something, its now all eyes on Clayton to sew up the entrants.

If Dobey wins and surpasses Lewis in the top 16 then Lewis doesn't have enough ProTour winnings right?

So that means that the qualifiers have been confirmed unless either Jeff Smith or Steve Lennon reaches the semis, or Hopp/Hunt/North/Kurz wins the dam thing.
And I suppose if Clayton wins then he'll knock Jackoff out based on countdown, which would put JdZ back on. So JdZ's only hope is Clayton winning and none of the others get very far. Is this right?

Disappointed for Razma, but hey, the others played really well this weekend and fully deserve it. Have to say I didn't even consider the possibility of de Zwaan not qualifying until quite recently, but there we go. Been on stinking form for a while now, I wonder if he's still troubled by the injury he suffered, or if there's another reason...

Always seems a bit harsh when someone misses out narrowly via both lists at the same time. Still, it's only Whitlock.

MVG (1) v Wade (8)
Smith (4) v Cross (5)
----------------------------------
Wright (2) v Gurney (7)
Price (3) v Aspinall (6)


Anderson and Durrant (and all the others) are non-seeds. The draw must be very soon, maybe even tomorrow.

He had surgery for it, shoulder I believe, was not long after it prior to the Summer Series, he might need to make his throw less aggressive I would say.
