Ray Harte got the home team off to the best possible start before Johnna Eccles (Player of the Match) rolled back the years with a 3-0 win.
John Rafferty (Player of the Match), John O'Brien, and Ciaran Treanor all won for The Commercial before Kevin Hillard won the last for Punters Athletic, leaving the final score 4-2.
In Corbett's, the Craicheads hosted Callans HBX. Conor Stevenson, Paddy Shields (Player of the Match) and Jack Curley put the hosts 3-0 up.
Callans got back into the match with wins for Gabriel McKenna and Rodney McLoughlin (Player of the Match), and capped a fine performance off with a 161 checkout Ryan King won the final game for the Craicheads to seal a 4-2 win.
Callans were hoping to keep up the pressure on the leaders in Division Two as they travelled to play Northend Bully's.
Anthony Reynolds' (Player of the Match) recent run of form is showing no signs of letting up, and he won the first game for the Bully's. Dylan Kirk won the next game for Callans, levelling things up.
Wins for Peader Kieran and David Gonnelly put the Bullys 3-1 up before Ryan Mc Shane (P.O.T.M) pulled one back for Callans.
The final game was a tense affair before Joanne O'Shaughnessy finished off 77 by hitting Tops and sealed a 4-2 win for the Bully's.
