Just had a look at the draw and its been most unkind to Luca im afraid...Lawlor,McGill,Gould...tough that.
Maflin/Davis v Ebdon should be interesting too.
Here is way i see final qualifying round end up;
Day v Woolaston
Yupeng v Higginson
O Neill v Doherty
Lisowski v O Brien
Chung v Cope
Joyce v Holt
Hicks v Fu
Mcmanus v Ford
Brecel v Gould
J Robertson v M Davis
Burnett v King
Jones v Campbell
Mcleod v Perry
Burden v Dale
Maflin v Ebdon
Guodong v Milkins
Think young Jack will have his hands full with the Dubliner!

Well played Alfie,and special mention for oldies Mcmanus and Swail,great wins!
Big frame that last one for Jimmy to lose,done Jack/xiao double!
Quality in the balls,and he will get plenty of chances here! Jimmy getting nice run of the balls early.4-2.
Jimmy is playing well i wouldn't want to back against him 4-2 up really
Wait until end of session so,if Xaio gets in just 4-5 down,have another look!
Big 2 frames here,7-2 and Jimmy all but through....
he needs to play better though.. hope he takes this frame
Think Jimmy will get twitchy when the finish line is on the horizon...
dreadful i know nothing about this Xiao bloke but he doesn't fill me with any confidence he can pull this back.
,me neither at this rate! 6-3 a MUST!!
Xiao is talented, but I guess he might be nervous just by the fact of playing against such legend.
Having said that, I have not been watching the match, so I don't know if he's playing reckless shots, attacking too much, or just missing a lot.
this next frame is massive.... it will be over if he loses this one
All of the above Vasek
,going for everything,Jimmy got nice run early which settled him down.Massive frame here.

Thanks gents. I hope Jimmy reaches the tournament and Milkins might not be unbeatable in the final qualifier because he goes for his shots and it should be an open game on who's potting better.
Be honest,would give Jimmy little chance against Rob,huge step up in class.But agree,be great to see Jimmy get there!
Isn't it unhealthy that Gilbert is such a short price against Drago, who makes a lot of careless shots but still can be unstoppable if it's his good day? I expect Tony to get a decent start in the worst case.
Hope you backed Drago,looking good.
Jimmy all but there it seems.
Jimmy all but there it seems.
Well done Jimmy,great win,would be great if he beat Milkins to qualify.
Just seen Kurt priced at 10/11 to beat Ebdon....must bet for me.
I backed Tony before the match, greened out already, keeping all the green on him but undecided whether not to split it 50-50 as something tells me Gilbert can't play as poorly as he did yesterday, so it should get a lot tougher for Drago.
Forgot to add - Maflin will be my bet too, tempting price indeed.
Drago's tactics today seems to be 'Let's sit out the opening two frames, let my stomach deal with the delicious lunch and then start playing'.
Well done Alfie,last man through to final qualifiers at 12.35am,10-9 over Dave Harold!!
Jack Lisowski will hammer Fergal O'Brien ... 10-4/10-5 that will be ... maybe even lower score, Lisowski is awesome !!

My 3 picks are,Doherty@8/13,Maflin@18/19 and Davis@10/11.
1.01 matched on selt in big trouble ( only pennies , but still 1.01 0
looks like re-racked final frame

dont tell me selt wiil kill the decider off in one visit after all this...please
what was the frame score at selts best ? 8-2 or something ?
9-4 , blimey , thats insane if he was to lose 6 on the bounce , might potentially end his career
really didnt see this happening after all his misses
yep , looking good now , never in doubt , he was just winding ken up , making him think he's got a chance 
can't remember a match where a player came back to win 10-9 from 9-4 down ?
Does anyone know when the draw for the 1st round is made please?
Can we watch it live?
Can we watch it live?
i wonder who ronnie will draw..there are certain players in the mix who he will never lose to in a million years like mcmanus etc..
but if he draws woolaston or m white that would be a tough draw

A lot of boring matches to not look forward to, the pick to avoid being Dott v Ebdon.
blimey what an easy openeer for ronnie with ali carter in round two who he never loses to,lump on time
milkins, holt, campbell, king, dale, selt all qualified and no doubt we will hear the epic "never been a higher standard of snooker before".
who is poomjaeng and baird?
who is poomjaeng and baird?
white /williams should be interesting,m white is a real good talent to watch may get a nice price for him there
baird is a very good player he thrashed joe perry to get here,ppomajen came through 4 qualifiers and is very solid
Wide open draw could get a big priced winner this year.
O'Sullivan will not be match sharp, Trump flatters to deceive. If Robertson and Selby stutter and they are in the same half it will be tough to pick a winner.

well ronnie has the perfect draw to get settled in,if he can get to the quarters anything is possible,cant see him losing to campbell however match unfit he is
i know judd's had a woeful season so far , but he'd have to be quietly confident of getting to the semis from his quarter . I can see Jack Lisowski giving the bottom half of the draw a run for their money
Yes, will beat Campbell easy, but from then on he'll have to be on his game with potential matches v Carter, Higgins, Trump, Robertson/Selby.
I'm not predicting anything they can all beat each other.
looks to good to be true,but every year one of these hot favs gets turned over
Draw does look good for the four main contenders, especially Ronnie and Robbo. I'd be rather surprised if both of those don't make the semi-finals at least.
How can anybody make any bold predictions about Ronnie until we've at least seen him wielding a cue?!
During the China Open it was said he'd been practising with Ebdon!!
Campbell's so slow around the table I could see his style really frustrating Ronnie if the balls aren't going in.
