The table points were decided by frame wins, followed by match wins to determine players' positions. If two players had an identical record then the result in their match determined their positions. If that ended 4–4 then the player who got to four first was higher.

gollark: Nuclear pancakes: for that healthy green glow (radium-based, ideally).
gollark: Ox or not ox?
