World Championship Snooker 2011

This thread may just turn into me talking to myself, but looking forward to this.

Bet of the 1st round imo is Robertson to beat Trump.  Trump this Trump that after his win last week, but he's had an average season, Robertson is still a class above although he's still not completely out of his old carefree habits on occasion, he should be bang on this.

Winner of Williams/Day to go far too, Hawkings my outside bet to do well.

[Josedinho]

Backed Allen to win the lot but still think Higgins will do it.
You'll have to flag up any good bets on here.

I'm on allen@25s and fu at 90s. Also small ew on jamie cope@66-1.

Allen has made the quarters and semis in the last two years and seems suited to the crucible, fu is underrated and has the game to surprise.

I think jamie's quarter is viewed as dominated by selby and ding, obv rightly so, but one result cld change all that, and mr cope is ultra talented.

On selby big at 7.2 outright.
Backed trump +2.5 frames and big bet on carter to win at 1.28

I like Allen, bit couldn't back him with his depression problems. Not a great Selby fan, but playing well into form at the mo.

[sweet potata!]

Ah yes, I will enjoy many a late night watching the Snooker for the next couple of wks, Bring it on

You got in before Selby collapsed, N1...

I'm on the other end of the Hawkings bet.

Interesting to see how Allen goes this week

Yeah am very pleased with the Selby bet - he is now into 6.2
The other 2 have gone the other way though - Walden is now available at 200's!

I have gone small on Allen to beat Stevens, but his personal issues are a major worry for a tournament this long - although he does have good form at the crucible.

Quite a few players to keep match bets to a minimum on this year - Allen, O'Sulliavn, King

[Jamier-Host]

Probably my favourite sport to spread bet on - gotta love the 50 ups volatility 

[Matt50]

Had 0.5 pts on Joe Perry in running v Hendry @ 6.0

[Biddy 62]

Ronnies looking good tempted with the 7.4 on Betfair.
