It could so easily have been 3-0, but Gilbert remains well in the match.

Szubarczyk potted the yellow, but Bingham notched the green and now he should clean up to clinch frame and match.

Lisowski was thinking about maximum after three pots

In the third frame in his 4-0 victory over Reanne Evans, Lisowski potted 11 reds and 10 blocks before missing his 11th colour. Speaking to TNT Sports afterwards, he admitted to having thoughts of a 147 very early in the break.

"I was thinking is it a bonus at this stage or not, I was thinking I'd do a Ronnie and not go for it," Lisowski joked.

"I was on nine and I thought (147 is on), the balls were nice and then you slowly get more tense.

"If I'd have got the red by the green away it would have been nice, but I'm not going to sulk too much."
