Fader Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Game on at 4-4. Some beautiful snooker from Williams last couple of frames. Such a shame 10 short of a century. 90 break. amity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amity Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I took the safer option of at least 2 centuries as even though Ronnie could easily hit several centuries in a match, he also has a tendency sometimes to get a little unfocused with his potting once he has the frame won.

Fader Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Just looking at the evening match and I'm going with Lisowski (-1.5 frames) to beat Vafaei. Has a really strong head-to-head record against Vafaei having won the last 5 in a row and won the last 3 4-0, 6-4 and 6-2. He was rubbish early on against Higgins but once he took the lead then he came into his own. This is Vafaei's debut at The Masters and despite winning well in Round 1 and defeating Selby, I feel like his performance will have to be just as good to beat Jack. 5pts Lisowski (-1.5 frames) to beat Vafaei 4/5 paddypower vikki37 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Lisowski through and just about covers the handicap with a 6-4. Will be a close match with Williams. I thought about going with Lisowski pre-tournament but I just feel like even if Jack makes the final he will bottle it in the big moment. I wanted a player with experience of winning here. Fingers crossed Williams makes the final. Today, though, we have lucky old Judd Trump back to play Hawkins. Trump shouldn't even be here and that kind of makes him more dangerous because he is really freerolling right now and I reckon we'll probably see a completely different Judd. However, Hawkins actually has won the last 3 head-to-heads and they've all been big matches. The Quarter Final of the Tour Championship he won 6-4 in 2021. Last year he beat Trump 6-5 here at The Masters, in the Semi Finals and then he beat him again most recently at the Quarter Final of the European Masters, in Germany. Hawkins knows how to beat him. With that in mind and also the fact he played well against Allen and Trump was rubbish has to sway me to have Hawkins on side. I'll also have a bet on Hawkins getting the highest break. He has had the highest break in the last 4 matches between the two. He hit a 114 against Allen in a match that only had 6 frames where as Judd couldn't make that much even with 11 frames. 3pts Hawkins (+1.5 frames) to beat Trump evens paddypower 2.5pts Hawkins (Highest break) 6/5 paddypower vikki37 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 I'm going to go with this for a point. I'm likely to go with centuries in the Murphy bet anyway and I think we'll see a decent performance from Hawkins and so with that in mind it's worth a point at 8s 1pt Bingham, Murphy, Trump & Hawkins all to hit a century 8/1 skybet vikki37 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

888888 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 in the 10th after Hawkins hit a fluke on a red he tried to pot the black in a very very difficult spot, in any other situation he would have gone for a defensive snook never would he have tried to pot that black , you could see on his face he did it on purpose to give back the hand to Trump because he felt guilty of scoring that fluke red; and then lose the frame, and then lose the match, pathetic.

I missed the earlier fluke but I was also gobsmacked he tried that very difficult black at such a crucial point of the match. Trump got out of jail there and didn't look back after that.

Fader Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Out of jail once again. That's why I bet on the handicap. Too many times the other player craps himself. amity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 ... so I didn't watch the Bingham/Murphy match. Was Bingham really good or was Murphy utter dross? Makes you wonder how much practice Murphy is doing when he is commentating all the time, on the side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only saw the last frame and a half but Bingham seemed to be playing well and Murphy was dire in that final frame, a world away from the player that beat Robertson. Bingham is certainly playing with confidence again, good to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fader Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Huge match this afternoon them. Mark Williams takes on Jack Lisowski for a place in the Masters semi finals. The bet ill be going with is both players to hit a century. Williams has hit 2 in each match he has played whilst Jack has hit 1 in his first match and a 96 against Vafaei. I was also quite tempted by Williams to hit 2 plus centuries. As I say, he has done that in both matches and you'd expect atleast 10 frames here. 2pts Both players to hit a Century 11/8 skybet amity and vikki37 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 don't think anybody was expecting a 6-0 thrashing but great to see Williams make the final. One more to win Mark. vikki37 and amity 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 what we thinking for the other Semi Final? I think the overs on the frames. I'm likely to go down that route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torque Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Overs and Bingham I reckon. Unless Trump metamorphoses into the Trump of a couple of years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I can't find it anywhere but what I want is Bingham to have the most centuries, highest break and over 9.5 frames. Cause I think it will be similar to the other matches. We saw with Robertson that he didn't look great when he got pressure. I think only way Bingham wins is like 6-3. Once it goes like 4-4/5-5 I think once again Trump wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foo_Fighter Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 I happen to disagree. The way Judd has survived against Day and Hawkins...

And tends to perform above himself in majors but massively under performed for his talents over his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
