2022 European Master

[DeanH]

well the qualifiers are on now, usual places to see them Eurosport player, some youtube, betting sites, etc

some results of note -

Dominic Dale 5-3 Joe Perry
Oliver Brown 5-4 Stephen Maguire

[DeanH]

Zhang Anda pots his first maximum in pro match
well done also for the longest at just over 19minutes (well from my listing anyway - 69 times unknown)

got to say though if I ever do a maximum I won't care how long it takes!

Wow, way to go Fu. Defeated Gilbert.

All Scottish tie next weekend. John Higgins V Scott Donaldson.

[Delphi]

Looking forward to see Ben Mertens play in a few hours, had to play him a few times here (well play...more like picking out the balls)

[DeanH]

Hossein Vafaei hits 147 two in as many days
75th player to make a max (in the "modern listing")
Also moves Rob Spencer into equal 2nd with 7 maxs now, equal with 6 other referees (all behind Brendan Moore with 9)

Is it unfair that Mark Allen had to win the group yesterday by winning 3 matches and had to play today as well? Probably tired and lost today. Thoughts? I think he should have been allowed to play tomorrow.

Spare your sympathy , he’d probably call it ‘ a bum tournament ‘ because he was only playing an amateur and wasn’t on guaranteed prize money, and he only played 11 frames yesterday and it was at the same venue.
