Check Stan Moody for instance, still out at 175 to 1, despite being 4-1 up. Same with 'O Neill, Pinhey and one or two others, Maybe worth a small punt on some of the long odds outsiders, especially the ones who are close to winning their first qualifying matches.

It's likely because the price is more top ended in the draw. I.e, Moody might beat Petrov but the price is more because he has to beat Anda and then Guodong over a best of 19. That being said, I'm sure there are some advantages to that for certain players that have been there before and players that are less likely to freeze. i.e, like Wells, O'Neill. amity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charliepie Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I think we all want Jimmy to do well so here's hoping! Interesting grudge match for Hendry vs his ex-nephew whom he selfishly refused to help when he was starting out in the game, I reckon Cahill should win easily as Stephen's just not got what it takes these days to compete. Marco Fu has played terribly today and looks like getting dumped out quite soon. Best of luck with those selections.

Fader Posted April 3, 2023 Author Share Posted April 3, 2023 yeah, Cahill has a chance of qualification but I'm sure he beats Hendry at the least. Perhaps worthy of a handicap bet. amity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliepie Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Looking ahead to the Crucible we might have a 1/4 final line-up of Ronnie/Mark, Judd/Shaun, Allen/Robbo, Kyren/Selby barring any upsets of course:-) Fader 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted April 4, 2023 Author Share Posted April 4, 2023 I've been watching Mink/Poom and it's been dreadful. Looks like going 2-2 but I think Mink at 7/1 is actually some value based on what I've seen. amity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliepie Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Yeah, I was watching it on Matchroom live too, surprised they're on table one but I guess looking at the other players on show it's probably the right choice. Poomjang took the longest toilet break after losing the first frame, well over 5 minutes, the ref had words with him when he returned! In fact it's surprising the refs don't go out for toilet breaks more often as a lot of them are quite old and as we know age affects your bladder retention! Certainly was worth a touch at 2-2 but after that Poom got it together and ended up with a deserved 6-2 lead going into tonight's final session. I quite like watching Mink as she has a cute face:-) Fader 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliepie Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 I thought they used to have the same ref for the whole match but I see the ladyboy ref is in charge tonight which is quite appropriate for a match between two Thais!

charliepie Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 What a shame it didn't go 8-8, might have got interesting then but Poom ought to win it from 9-7 up I reckon. Fader 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah very close to going 8-8. Think Matthew Steven's shouldn't have much of an issue against him in the 2nd round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliepie Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Yeah Matthew should see him off. Mink was going well when she hit the 73 then a century, thought she had turned the match at that point but she couldn't keep it up sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliepie Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 What a start for Hendry, century number 777 I think with a 102 break including a couple of amazing doubles (he's always saying how useless he is at them!) It might be an interesting match and a decent crowd watching him and Ken on the adjacent table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charliepie Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Cahill's body language is very negative at the moment, almost wishing I had a bet on Hendry now though surely he can't win can he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted April 5, 2023 Author Share Posted April 5, 2023 I've had a couple bets in running on Ferg O'Brien and also Surety but I couldn't get on early enough to post them up. 2 more that I like though over the rest of the day are 4pts Steadman to beat Astley 5/4 paddypower 3pts Pinhey to beat P.Lines evens paddypower vikki37 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliepie Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Fidget is going well for you as is Zak and of the other 2 surely one will win. I was a bit premature with my excitement after the first frame century from Hendry, he'll be disappointed to be 7-2 down. I thought James might have been feeling a bit of pressure to beat uncle Stephen - the Tart sisters will be celebrating around 8pm tonight🥂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted April 5, 2023 Author Share Posted April 5, 2023 Yeah, bit like when Hendry played Selt. A century and then a thrashing. He's gone and so is White now. Such a serial choker against an average amateur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliepie Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Shame Jimmy's also trailing 7-2 against the Minister, I hope Hendry makes the score respectable by grabbing a couple of frames tonight, just breaking off now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted April 6, 2023 Author Share Posted April 6, 2023 Will take Kleckers to beat Hugill tomorrow. I wasn't very impressed with Hugill in his match against an amateur in Pragnall. Pragnall is a decent player but Hugill only managed 4 50+ breaks in a match that had a lot of frames. Kleckers beat him last time they played back in 2019 at Q-School. Kleckers also has the better recent form and so as long as he can get to grips with the faster table conditions quickly, I would fancy Kleckers to come through. 4pts Kleckers to beat Hugill 5/4 paddypower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had 1 50+ break and Kleckers had 3 or 4 i think it was and that was at 3-3. Just how. Seemed to get in every time and then throw it away. Very odd. Can only hope tomorrow he wakes up.

charliepie Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 (edited) I was going to have a bet on Pinchers too as he played well last round but didn't in the end, I see he's current 9-6 up(was 9-4) but he will probably get over the line. Still time for Kleckers tomorrow fingers crossed. Stevens only just got past Poom when it should have gone 9-9 really.
