Initially I thought having a very big bet on Stephen Hendry to prevail against Bingham at just over even money but now I am in two minds. Yes, 10 years ago Hendry would be 1/10 to win against Bingham and he is tempting but?....comments please.

I would rather be on bingham to be honest,played well last year here but was caught on the line by ding if memory serves!
Should be a close game though,GL with whatever you go for. |

he played a very impressive q-match, would not want to oppose him, his breakbuilding was fluent and he punished every mistake the chinese kid made, the more decisive question is how he is going to cope with the jetlag on saturday

Evens for hendry is a very very fair price against bingham, im steaming in at that price for sure as I reckon hendry will win this with ease.
Around 10-5, 10-6 |

12 years ago Bingham beat Hendry in the first round

Its only sheer guts and a spattering of his old class that gets him through these days and he has only lost 3 first round matches in 3 seasons or something like that.
Its sad to say I prefer him in the commentary box now as he is almost as classy there as he once was on the table. Having watched his career in its entirety I am convinced he is the best I have seen but in many ways he should have retired the night he picked up his seventh worlds, he had just beaten the hardest draw to do that and in some ways he was never the same player after. I think there are far safer bets to be had so dont do all your money, a 30% Hendry wont be a match for Bingham would be my guess. |

many thanks for all the comments. I think I will leave this match alone having learned that Hendry has just returned from China.....think jet-lag will certainly play a big part in the outcome of this match. GL to all.

Hendry is the greatest bar none.
Under pressure, and with "my" money on the line he could always be relied on. I have won fortunes backing the "wonder bairn". The man's middle name is "bottle", he has it in spades. Who knows, he may even win the whole damn thing. |

anyone back Hendry with baldie as part of their 147 offer?
|
|
By:
66/1 for high break ,what a price claim Willie and Parrott.Just a shame he had already made the max.
|
|
By:
50/1 still to win it outright.
|
|
By:
laddies had the offer too, bound to have been a few sentimenal £20's
|
|
By:
was 66/1 with baldie 10 mins ago

He should be a million.

I might be wrong here...but I think he was the last player to score a 147 at the World Champs...prior to today.
|
|
By:
just the greatest ever
all this nonsense you hear about younger players taking game to new level maybe on the whole yes but hendrys standards of 90s would be winning world champs Just have too look at his century break totals |
|
By:
talent and bottle is a great combination.
he is unbeatable in any era if at his prime imo |
