This years comp does seem a lot more open (Although i only recognise the Croydon players) - Just seeing no Halligan/Altes etc gives us mere mortals a hope,

I could never expect to win a comp of this type but a few frames practice may just do me the world of good in actually stringing a sucsession of pots together

In my opinion an in-form Paul Wildman would have a major chance
anyone offering a price ?
