Massive long shot, but worth a quid e/w.....

To win the Snooker World Championship.

Jimmy White  750/1.

He has still got to get through TWO qualifying games to get there, but tonight won 10 : 7 with a top break of 130.

If any one needed their #onetime, it is the whirlwind!

    Can,t see it myself but would love to be proved wrong _ It would certainly make it more interseting if he makes it there

    As much as I'd like to see it happen.... he didn't do it when he was top of his game :-(

    Followed/supported him religiously from the 80s and it would be awesome to see him finally do it.

    Who remembers sitting on CEEFAX page 350+ constantly refreshing for the frame score updates when the particular match wasn't being shown live on TV?

    Not guilty of that. But do remember once watching Botham pile the runs on against the Aussies through a shop window on CEEFAX.

    The dream is still alive......

    Jimmy White moves into the final qualifying round after a superb 10-4 victory over Xiao Guodong. Only Robert Milkins now stands in the way of 'The Whirlwind' and a fairytale Crucible return!

    He is down to 400/1 now.

    Are we converting this into the snooker thread for the next fortnight? :D

    No Stephen Lee this year, but I'm still going to watch it anyway!

    Traditional first round acca.

    Ronnie
    Murphy
    Allen
    Stevens
    Ding
    Selby
    Robertson
    Lisowski

    £8 @ 11.31/1 returns £98

    Default play in the outright winner market is to go for the next fattest in the field.

    Shaun Murphy, £5 @ 16/1

    Hahaha, you really need to get over your Chunk fetish!

    Moon Face doesn't stand a chance either.

    I'm going for Ronnie not moaning at 8 billion to 1. It's a gamble.
