    Snooker: Welsh Open

    Re: Snooker: Welsh Open All kicks off 11am tomorrow. Here are my thoughts on tomorrow's matches: 11:00 Junhui (1/3) v Campbell Prices look about right here. Campbell cruised through his qualifier but Ding rarely slips up against the lesser players. Ding to win but no bet. 11:00 Walden (4/7) v Harold Harold has had a good run to qualify, culminating in a whitewash of an out-of-sorts Wenbo. Walden is a funny player, looks very good at times but misses silly shots because he plays so deceptively quickly. Still he is the class act. Walden to win but no bet. 13:00 Stevens (4/6) v Hamilton Hamilton looked on fire at one stage during the German Masters and has qualified again here. Difficult to know what kind of form Stevens is in but I could see him scrapping this one out. Stevens to win but no bet. 13:00 Carter (4/7) v Hawkins Hawkins played awesome on Friday to qualify, knocking in some huge breaks. Carter holds no fear for him either being well known to each other. Carter's form is patchy and it is difficult to tell how he will play. At the prices I will take Hawkins to win at around 13/8. 14:00 Higgins (4/11) v Lisowski If Higgins hadn't been through the week he has just been through then I would be lumping on him to take this; he is ruthless against up and coming players with little TV experience. But with the big Lisowski looking in good touch I'll leave it. Higgins to win but no bet. 14:00 King (4/6) v Holt Two unpredictable players and this best of 7 could last a while. King is under pressure to get in the top sixteen ahead of the ranking revision and still looks to be playing quite well. Holt is capable of good form, particularly against the players not in the top bracket. But I will take a chance on King at 4/6 to win this one. 19:00 Day (8/13) v White Jimmy played very nicely in the qualifiers with a couple of tons. Day is under real pressure through ranking and loss of form. He could be inspired by the home crowd and Jimmy may no longer have the game to win at the TV stage. Day to win but no bet. 19:00 Cope (4/7) v McLeod I don't know about the shotgun, if it was me I would call him Jamie 'Sh1tforbrains' Cope. He can play some truly woeful shots at times and for that reason I can never back him. McLeod came through a tough final qualifier and sooner rather than later he is going to win a TV game. I'll take McLeod at around 13/8 to win this one.
