    Gone a bit scrappy this Trum Junhui match, not sure who that would suit really but possibly Ding Junhui slightly more than Trump who has been potting them off the lamp shades so far. Fancy they might get to 8-8 after this morning so any odds against Ding probably value at this point.

    £2e/w Judd Trump 40/1 - Won in china last week, on good form but tough first round match against defending champ. £2e/w Matthew Stevens 66/1 - Been in good form this year, apart from in China, was actually told to back him there to win it, and advised to have a cheeky bet form him to beat hendry in first round 5-0, he lost 5-0 lol but sticking with him. £2e/w Stephen Maguire 28/1 - When on top form hes a match for anyone, like backing maguire £8 win Ding Junhui 9/1 - Class Act, sure to go close Shaz xxx

    Good effort that Shaz. Trump is worst result in our book of the 4 left with plenty of Sky bet punters getting on at all odds from 80/1 downwards and particularly after he beat Robertson in round 1. Ding is also a loser in our book so whoever wins this match is not a great each way result, however, amazingly Williams and Higgins are pretty good results so we will be cheering them on in the final. Having said that a win for either Trump or Ding would be good for snooker so not a total loss. Good luck with your bet Shaz anyway.

    Thanks Andy,

    Not a good session at all for Trump there, first time since its started that hes had a shaky session, still think he will push ding all the way tho.

    Quick question for you, i know you said you head of snooker but do you know if skybet have any plans to join all the other major online bookmakers by offering guranteed best price on horseracing???

    I know so many regulars use different sites because of this, and as they are betting horses elsewhere, they tend to put other bets such as snooker footy etc else where also.

    Shaz

    Logically, if you put £10 on Higgins @ 5 -1 you will win £60.

    Therefore you are technically £10 down at the moment.

    If you put £8 on Trump you will win £21. Thus making you £3 profit (21 - 10 - 8)

    But do you bet to win £3 ?

    You can get trump @ 6/4 with most bookies, have £20 on him, then if he wins you will pick up £50 (£20 profit) and if higging wins you will pick up £60 (£30 profit)

    Higgins will win the final, don't worry, you'd be bonkers to cover it.

    Yeah I can only see Higgins winning this one.

    Sad news regarding Ted Lowe.

    haha, he's going to prove me wrong now isn't he.

    I thought he'd be nervous tbh but he's looking like he's really enjoying it and cueing perfectly.

    thankfully you're normally wrong when it comes to snooker as i'm on Trump @ 33's

    Andy, is there a reason Sky don't offer a market on correct seesion score? obv 2 late for this years tourny, but with the matches in the worlds going overnight, i thought it would be quite a popular market?

    Hi Kaymac,
    I have £10 on Higgins at 5/1.
    If higgins wins I will get back £60 i.e that is a profit of £50.
    Now to safeguard my loss of £50 if Trumps wins,I have bet £20 on Trumps at 6/4 which will give me a return of £50.

    So £30 9nvested possible return of £50/60. Giving me a nice profit of £20/30.
    A profit is always welcome no matter how small.

    Good final so far, a few nerves but Ireckon this evenings 9 frame session will be of a higher quality. It would be nice to see another close session 5-4 either way or Trump going into a bit of a lead as that way I think we will be guaranteed an exciting days play tomorrow.

    Great news for Trump fans.

    Not only are you 10-7 up overnight, but I've just had a substantial amount on Higgins in running @ 6/5 and then 13/10.

    The 13/8 about him now will prob also be snapped up if it's still there in the morning. 

    Your man canny lose now ! 

    ;)
