Mitchell had won 13 games in a row stretching back to the end of last week and looked to potentially extend this but a late defeat to Paul Nicholson (5-3) both ended his run but also his chances of finishing top again.

Following that, he lost out to Mark Webster in a 5-1 defeat in a battle of the Lakeside World Champions which also handed the former second spot in a strong end to the day which saw three wins in a row after two early defeats.

For Jenkins though, he had an almost flawless day defeating Stephen Burton (5-1), John Brown (5-1), Mark Webster (5-3) and Paul Nicholson (5-3). His only defeat ironically came against Mitchell 4-5 in his last match of the day but he still claimed proceedings.

There will be 15 games a day which will be best of 9 legs with two Pools set to be involved as usual. It begins everyday as a result at 10:30 am running till 5:00 pm and sees live action continue.

The scores are recorded during matches via a webcam with this then uploaded to various scoring services and bookmakers who are all showing the action. The livestream is provided by organiser MODUS .
