I am aware its the wrong forum but the tournament always gets talked about on here.

I have backed Robertson who has an amazing cue action.

Any fancies or plays?

Enjoy either way Wink

Hoping Ronnie can break the record and was value around 12/1 before his last tournement, 6/1 now not so appealing. Game will be dead once he packs up.
Report wondersobright April 19, 2026 6:34 PM BST
not much interest on snooker forum for what is a great event imo
I put xintong up a few months ago @ 11/2
gone off 9/4 fav & wasn't impressive 1st round...looks overly short now have laid some back
Q4 looks worst part of draw to be in either selby or wu yize have a legitimate shot of beating judd before SF stage
wilson is in easiest section imo 14s is big also ronnie 7/1 surprisingly I have him a small winner also

The Greatest player ever to hold a cue,Spocko without a doubt.
Xintong is on his way up and the Rocket will struggle
Report wondersobright April 19, 2026 6:38 PM BST
ronnie drawn v well imo
weak qualifier
carter/john boy he's got clear edge over including mentally with carter
QF robbo at worst you wouldn't be fearful
its SF before a legitimate opponent will be faced
that's why he's half odds

thought I was still  watching the 9th green at the masters on one pot, rolled of a straight line missed the pocket by 2 inches ,hit the opposite knuckle and still dropped in,pockets like buckets

Xintong on his day is unplayable even to the likes of Trump who is finding finals difficult to close lately, Ronnie surely yesterdays man with a pretty poor attitude to anything not Ronnie.

Did you miss seeing Ronnie win the JV Tournament in Ireland the other week. ?? He looked pretty good to my poor eyes. Happy

Was a friendly exhibition affair, would not be surprised to see him out early.

Stan Moody - 19yo Crucible debutant - very impressive!
Report GLASGOWCALLING April 20, 2026 10:52 AM BST
Going off like a Rocket at the moment, has to slow down surely. ?? Shocked

Stan Moody like a breath of fresh air ,gets down and plays the shot ,no lengthy procrastination.Thats what puts a lot of people off snooker lately ,slow play .

Watching him against dreary faced Kyren Wilson is like chalk and cheese.
Report paulybad April 20, 2026 1:31 PM BST
Kyren probably a bet from here, Stan can look decent but does not maintain it, usually throws in some inexplicable misses when under no pressure.
Report 1st time poster April 20, 2026 8:25 PM BST
fook me your not wrong just missed a straight red by 6 inches,embarrassing

Shame the young lad has gone to pieces, come back next year a lot wiser.
Report paulybad April 20, 2026 10:00 PM BST
One dimensional, needs to go home and watch Selby dvds for a month.
Report DixieDean60 April 20, 2026 10:06 PM BST
I took a bit of 33s on Kyren for the outright after the first session, thought the young lad might bottle it tonight.

Kyren will need to improve a good deal to get near winning the thing though.

The Chinese lads seem absolutely fearless. Fair play to them.

The home grown players will have a tough task upcoming in the next few years.

Trump, Selby, Wilson, Lisowski, Moody and possibly Highfield will be representing their Country..

The Chinese have just made themselves better and deserve to be.

Some great snooker upcoming
