Oh sorry,
After Wadey first game I gave him praise for a job well done, but said that in this mindset he could well go on and win
Just think in the worlds the mind game is as important as the scoring, moreso than other tournies
No worries, tbf you did call it early and your boi is still in. I did look at his draw before the tourney and thought it was decent but his previous record in the Worlds is poor so I couldn't have him. |

Unless you are playing Kirk Shepherd in the final you can't average less than 94 and win, the stats prove that- whilst it ain't all about scoring it don't half help!!

From what I remember the player with better average wins the game ~80% of the time, so it's obviously the best starting point to working out who wins

For the stats fans- 3rd round 8/8 winners had best average. Quarter finals 4/4
Obviously longer the game the more likely average=win due to lowering variance

Anyone got thoughts on Hamilton tonight?
Top average of last 4, nothign to lose, everything to win?
Is it just a case of Whitlock going to be too good all round?

I like him. He is arguably playing best of all four that remain. On at 45/1 outright though so going to leave it alone but definitely a bet I like.

Anyone's really, it's all about the mental/drink quantities. Hamilton v Lewis is my final match up.

Hamilton is defo the value here, Whitlock losing to him from 15-8 up in Blackpool could play on his mind.

I missed the match the other night, but in what manner did Whitlock beat Anderson the other night? People seem to be talking up Hamilton, so I'm guessing Anderson was just awful?
I know Ham's been playing very well but he's had a fairly easy run so far hasnt he? Feel free to correct me, just looking for perspectives

Hamilton has the best tournament average and tends to win tight Games. |

Why did no one reply informing me that Hamilton was Taylor in disguise? I backed him to trade in the end, but how can i swing the bet around at the moment? Unstoppable right now! |

My favourite for many a moon, just because of how open it's been. Whitlock was amazing in defeat! I doubt many would stand there and act with such dignity! |
