Robertson all Thai-d up

Jimmy Robertson suffered a disappointing defeat in the second ranking event of the 2011/12 World Snooker season.

The world no.54 from Bexhill was beaten 5-2 by Thai player Passakorn Suwannawat in round two of the Shanghai Masters Qualifiers on Tuesday afternoon.

Robertson won the opening two frames at the World Snooker Academy in Sheffield, but world no.89 Suwannawat, the 2011 Asian Championship winner, proceeded to reel off five in a row with a top run of 110.
