Judd Trump warns his best is yet to come after easing into World Championships second round
Trump laboured at times against Crucible debutant Hossein Vafaei during the opening round, eventually going through 10-4.
However, while Trump was far from thrilled with how he opened his tournament, he believes his best snooker will come - and hopefully at the right time.
"There were just too many easy mistakes and I don't feel that comfortable playing out there. I just don't feel like I'm going to clear up every time - that mentality's not there.
Elsewhere at the Crucible, Thailand's Noppon Saengkham pulled off a shock 10-5 win over Luca Brecel.

The second round matches also got underway on Thursday, with three-time Champion Mark Williams in dominant mood.
Stephen Maguire was in the mood to score heavily too, as he produced two centuries to lead 5-3 overnight against the fancied Zhao Xintong.
