Sir Puntalot Posted March 11, 2006 Author Share Posted March 11, 2006 Re: Snooker: World Champs Final Qualifying Round It makes a mockery of the outright prices when Ding is 9/1 and Hawkins 80/1 as there isn't much to separate them. I've been waiting for this match to be priced up and on those prices alone, Hawkins should have been made around 3.50, but I suppose that was hoping too much. Hawkins will be very much suited to this length of match, and don't judge him on last week too much, he's got bottle galore. At the prices, I won't be betting though. Selby has to be the bet against Milkins, who is just a potter and Selby has so much more to his game. I fully expect Selby to win this match, but will wait until more prices are available.

I fully expect Selby to win this match, but will wait until more prices are available.[/quote'] I agree. Selby is a maximum bet for me in this. Of the bigger prices Michael Judge has played Ali Carter twice in tournament play and won 5-0 on both occasions. That should give Judge confidence and he could be a nice bet at 11/8. Mark Davis beat David Gray in Wales last week before getting spanked by Matthew Stevens. I long thought of Mark Davis as a better player away from the TV cameras and with Gray in awful form right now even money on Davis might be worth a pop. Gray does seem to do better in the longer matches though so I'll think about that one. Of the other matches, Wattana is a short price but looked much more like the Wattana of old last week and I think he'll beat Dave Gilbert. Word of caution though, my snooker form is worse than my football teams form which is saying something so a lay of all 4 may be the play!! :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Puntalot Posted March 13, 2006 Author Share Posted March 13, 2006 Re: Snooker: World Champs Final Qualifying Round SportSnooker/Pool EventWorld Champs Final Qualifier SelectionSelby to beat Milkins Strength10/10 Date14/03/2006 Bookmaker/Price>William Hill @ 1.90 (Back) ReasoningHills have Selby way overpriced here, should be around 1.60-1.70. Selby is by far the better player, but Milkins is no mug at the same time. However, Selby has superior breakbuilding and tactical play even if Milkins is the better potter. I really can't see Milkins beating Selby here and I expect a 10-6, 10-7 win at worst for the talented Leicstershire player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevshat Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Re: Snooker: World Champs Final Qualifying Round Paddy Power have got Selby at 11/10 -1.5 frames. Surely that's a runner? Milkins ain't much of a battler when he's behind and I think there's a strong chance that Selby will win 10-8 or better. What do you reckon Paul?

LockStockLad Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Re: Snooker: World Champs Final Qualifying Round This thread has definately made me think twice about my bets on the qualifiers! I actually thought Milkins may be worth a shout - if there is one thing in his favour he believes he should be involved with the best, even though it rarely transfers to the tables! Big game for both players and Im not as confident about Selby here as everyone else. Ive seen Milkins battle before and he can string frames together rather quickly when playing with confidence.

ZuluWarrior Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Re: Snooker: World Champs Final Qualifying Round Looks like all the usual offenders are back in town for the snoooker! Hi kevshat and Paul, looking forward to the torney?? I personally would put my money on Davis if I had to tomorrow, but No Bet for me on this one, me-thinks. I agree with kevshat, Greys just not on firm and I think Davis can go the distance, in the qualifying at least... PS> I would have posted my selections for today, but the events started so I'll keep stum! Got my hopes on a little qualifying accumulator though, can't resist a small flutter!

Sir Puntalot Posted March 14, 2006 Author Share Posted March 14, 2006 Re: Snooker: World Champs Final Qualifying Round http://www.globalsnookercentre.co.uk/files/Results/res05_6/06world.htm GSC has frame updates, Selby 3-0 at present. :ok LSL, I hear what you're saying about Milkins, but having been involved in Pro-Ams and hearing all players over a long period, there was always a sense that some were saying things like "I should be there" without really believing it deep down. I'm guessing you know Milkins fairly well to be able to say what you have above, but I've seen him play live a couple of times, and while he is fluent and dangerous, he would never trouble an on form Selby or other solid player imo, just doesn't have the game. Cue a 10-3 win for Milkins now. :ok :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Puntalot Posted March 14, 2006 Author Share Posted March 14, 2006 Re: Snooker: World Champs Final Qualifying Round Hawkins leads Ding 6-3 at half time! Not really a shock in my eyes Kev, Ding is way underpriced at 9/1 to win the World with Hawkins at 80/1 - you want shooting if you back Ding for the WC at 9/1.

kevshat Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Re: Snooker: World Champs Final Qualifying Round It's no surprise to me either mate. I wouldn't touch Ding with stolen money at his price. In fact in Aliando's banker thread in the systems section someone said Ding was a banker to qualify and I quickly said I disagreed because of the fact he had Hawkins in this round.

ZuluWarrior It's not live mate, I just read the report on the World Snooker website. As for the tournament itself, I'll wait until Thursday's draw but it's fair to say I'm hoping Doherty and Ebdon get nice 1st round draws because with Higgins, Hendry and O'Sullivan in the bottom half of the draw I would suggest the better betting propositions will come in the top half.

Would like to put a word in for Robertson (8/15) v Greene, and Hamilton (4/9) v Lawler tomorrow. Both in good nick, should be too strong for their opponents. Double material, perhaps, as they are a short enough price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double material, perhaps, as they are a short enough price. NW I'd be wary of Robertson at such a short price. If Greene is hot he can beat anyone. I think a Wattana/Hamilton double is more of a call at better odds too! Also looking at the Davis-Gray match still too. Not quite sure why Totesport are going 5/4 so need to see if I've missed something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
