Well, I've done my balls there.

hope judd wins now, at his best the only 1 left who is anywhere near world championship calibre in my view

gilbert steady top 16, world champs for your maiden ranking event has happened before but what a joke
john boy at his age playing at the level he's playing at...joke qualifier...done well but that's a joke also |

By:
anybody can win on the buckets though, I shouldn't be surprised

What an ambassador for the sport we love is John.....

The female presenter on Eurosport has nearly got me wondering what Dennis has got to say.
Get in the sea both of them ffs. |

By:
I think Dave is going to be a big price against Johnboy.
|
|
By:
if trump brushes up his long potting he'll win this in a hack canter.
|
|
By:
this is a dream semi-final scenario for him
|
|
By:
I think Dave might take him down, if he can handle the occasion.
Judd at 1/7 v 9/2 Wilson |
|
By:
I'm really not sure it is. It's a match he would EXPECT to win in a hack canter. They're the ones where he's most vulnerable.
|
|
By:
Agreed Lat, I think 9/2 is a slight insult.
Lets just say Judd has previous as a disappointing fav. |
|
By:
The farmer doesnt have a good history of handling big occasions. Just sense something slightly different about him at the mo though
|
|
By:
If Trump doesn't win it from here he'll never win it and he'll go the same way Dings gone in the past couple of years
He's had it opened up big time now Higgins is average at best, not the same player he was 10 years ago not by a long way |
|
By:
Long matches should mean his superior game comes out on top?
|
|
By:
11/5 Gilbert the only price I've seen.
All things considered about right imo. |

By:
I was expecting gary Wilson to falter today against carter but he stayed strong and was the deserving winner, if he can beat Selby and carter over that distance he can sure as hell beat trump and at 5/1 he has got to be value, he must get a frame on the board asap and not let trump get off to a flyer
Think 2/5 for Higgins is lump on bet of the highest order...………….daves simply not got the nerve to take Higgins out and it really is as simple as that. Higgins 2019 world snooker champion, thank me on monday and enjoy your winnings |

Strange interview that from Higgins. His main point was that the poor playing conditions gave him an advantage over Robertson because Robertson was affected more, as Robertson has been playing at a higher level. A point he had to repeat to the interviewers a couple of times as its inner wisdom was lost on them the first time.
Also seemed to be finding the process of answering questions exhausting, which does make me wonder if his conditioning is up to the tests that lie ahead. |

A strangely looking priced up match higgins and gilbert i was expecting to see something like 2/9 very odd..

Dave has now beaten Kyren, MJW, Robbo, Selby & Ding since Xmas. He is significantly improved (regardless of how you judge whether the standard overall is improving
 or the tables are acting as levellers). On the numbers of the season it is a coin flip where Dave is a very slight favourite. Yes, he is likely to struggle to get across the line, but there's no reason to think he can't get close to getting to that stage. 3.55 is a big trading price, IMHO. |

By:
It's current form (D.Gilbert's is definitely stronger) against proven Crucible form. J.Higgins will have to 'come down' from his win last night, although it wasn't the really tight finish it looked like being. I priced Higgins at 2/5, but that in part is because it's possible Gilbert may take time to adjust to the one table set-up. If he can get through the opening session on terms then he definitely has a chance against a solid, if unspectacular Higgins.

I don't think that's strange at all...I think its bang on the money & v honest from honest john I am with lats on this 5/2 gilbert is a great bet imo think john boy is far far too short in the SF match betting & the outright judd arguably a bet outright as well cannot believe I'm even saying that |

Even if gilbert were to beat him,how anyone could bet someone whose been a pro for 17 years won no ranking tournaments,playing over best of 33 frames against one of the best players of all time and think he will win..Would love to see him win,but if he got beat by 6-7 frames who would be surprised..

how anyone could bet someone...and think he will win
betting is probabilistic not deterministic |

nobody saying john boy shouldn't be favourite or the most likely winner in his match

If i had to place players in order of best ever robertson would be miles
behind Hendry,Hiiggins,williams,O'sullivan,Davis,Reardon,Selby,then you have another level Trump,White etc and he's in amongst that lot somewhere.. |

nobody saying john boy shouldn't be favourite or the most likely winner in his match Personally i'd like to see Dave absolutely hammer him,just hope his back legs don't fall off..infact i'd love to see a wilson gilbert final but its just not going to happen.. |
|
By:
Trump should be winning it
He wont have a better 3 guys left alongside him |
|
By:
trump will win it.
|
|
By:
never rule out john boy! guys a matchplay legend!
|
|
By:
John was visibly panting as he finished off Robbo. Tend to feel he is a tad spent, and his opponent was a big help.
I’m going for Gilbert v Trump and sticking with Ace in the pack finally not to fold. |
|
By:
can see john winning this quite comfortably and save some energy for the final, and if he were to lose in the final for a 3rd year in a row, then I think he may well retire.
Think Wilson will defo give judd a good game, all the pressures on judd to come through this one, wilsons nothing to lose Higgins to win around 17-7 -17-9 Wilson to win around 17-11 17-13 |
|
By:
I reckon higgins wins 17-12 and dudd wins 17-10
|
|
By:
1.50 is too big for Honest John imo.
|
|
By:
agree, id be amazed if he lost to gilbert over such a long format
