But Whitchurch-based Nuttall, who plays for Ellesmere, bucked the trend and put a frame on the board for the challengers with breaks of 38 and 44.

Amongst the other players to pit their wits against the six-times World Championship runner-up were Oswestry League Secretary Lee Gorton, Mark Gibbins and Alan Thelwell.
Mark Roberts, from Oswestry Ex-Servicemans Club, won a raffle to play White but was defeated despite a break of 25.
