Am I seeing things? The market makes so fav? What? Vafai is a class above si, if he plays well he will blow si off the table. Si is the probably the most overrated top 16 player ever, very ragged player .
Pause • Switch to Standard View Vafai odds against si??

looking good so far

Yep, think odds were reflecting rankings though (Si 15, Hoss 32) - but I'd agree that didn't (obv now) reflect their actual chances here.
Report stu • April 23, 2026 1:55 PM BST
Could have got even better price at 3-1 down though!
Report wondersobright • April 23, 2026 2:04 PM BST
its not priced up on rankings
Report stu • April 23, 2026 2:07 PM BST
Not always, but 1.8 Si looked like it was.
Report wondersobright • April 23, 2026 2:10 PM BST
vafaei has lost more matches than he's won this ssn
only kowalski & pang junxu have worse scoring stats

he's inferior to si on all metrics, not that si is good
Report stu • April 23, 2026 2:18 PM BST
On fairly recent stats fair enough, but he got a QF most recent tournament, would have been mad to ignore longer term ability given that.
Report stu • April 23, 2026 2:19 PM BST
or ignore Si's pretty mediocre form leading up to this...
Report wondersobright • April 23, 2026 2:27 PM BST
up to you stu if you want to over-value the most recent match/tournament played to make your bets
but if this match was played again next week vafaei wouldn't be fav
Report wondersobright • April 23, 2026 2:29 PM BST
he's rammed up in grade from here on in anyway
judd R2 then selby/wu yize QF
Report stu • April 23, 2026 2:32 PM BST
I meant on longer term views, plus a recent upturn in form (QF) he certainly had ability to beat a Si in poor form (as he was) - hence the 1.8 looked to be based nearer to rankings values instead of those criteria.
Report wondersobright • April 23, 2026 2:34 PM BST
longer term than 2 years?
Report stu • April 23, 2026 2:34 PM BST
It's tricky to give an exact value of course. But, that's what betting's about really, isn't it...
Report stu • April 23, 2026 2:35 PM BST
Must admit I find both these players slightly tricky to weigh up.
Report wondersobright • April 23, 2026 2:38 PM BST
I don't like either of them tbh
Report stu • April 23, 2026 2:42 PM BST
Both have quite a 'range' in what level they play at, which makes them both very 'difficult' yes!
Report wondersobright • April 27, 2026 10:22 PM BST
hope you played up your winnings
Report frames • April 28, 2026 6:10 AM BST
Would Si still be fav if they played next week ?
Report wondersobright • April 28, 2026 12:22 PM BST
if they voided all matches & re-started the comp again next week?
yes vafaei wouldn't be fav
