Welsh Open 2014 - Discussion

[cebs]

King came good for me last, bit worried about one point and as it was the final match I did think my luck was about to run out.

12/12 results for me yesterday but only bet on 9 sadly.

Some of todays matches are a bit harder to call but I reckon. todays winners will be:

Selby
Murphy
Allen - close to call though
Robertson
Walden
Trump
O'Sullivan
Bingham
Maguire
Ding

A ten way on that gets about 16-1 but add a few of the risky ones in :

+ Dott, Stevens = 70 - 1
+ Higginson = 106 - 1
+ Hawkins = 167 - 1 or + Lisowski = 245 -1. Can't really call this match imo.

The weird thing is the odds do vary depending on the order by quite a lot, so be careful when adding to your slip !

I am rolling over last nights winnings and think I will do a 10 way and then a smaller 13 way and stop at Higginson but maybe a couple of quid on a 14 way either option.

anyone know who has car reg 933CUE?
saw it outside the venue and I thought it could have been ROS' as he is around that number of centuries but one of the courtesy drivers said that Ronnie's A8 was out back

I'd like to know what Dean is wearing to let us know what we're dealing with! Is he a fan of I ♡ snooker shirts..?

I think I can see him . . .

So Ronnie is only 49 centuries away from equalling Hendry's record. I wonder how it will take him?

Taffy's trying to save money on the camera mens wages lol.

The coverage has'nt been the best so far, you've got the red button that just finishes halfway through a match, and Eurosports scheduling is all over the place, now we've got the Ding Cope match being shown again when there are other matches on, and they have got cameras on other tables because when a match finished earlier they switched to the Murphy Steadman match, it just seems odd to me!

Yes. It annoys me too. Just put a single camera on another table. Lighting does not need to be perfect. I don't even need commentary.

Has anyone else noticed the odd twisting motion Barry does to get into the cueing position.

Ha! Just this second decided to come on here and say the exact same thing. I find it very amusing. He kind of throws his left shoulder in and then almost looks over it before getting down into the conventional position. Very odd.

I remember thinking why he does that during a ete earlier this year... apparently he dislocated his shoulder in a dogging mishap =p

Then when over the cue he gurns his chin out of the way and looks like old man Steptoe with his teeth out

Yes. It's not a good look. He looks like a hobbit.

Not the best snooker today unfortunately.

Tian played poorly and Williams wasnt sharp and O'Sullivan
had little competition and wasnt sharp either.
Robertson played well altho he also had little opposition.
Hopefully tomorrow brings some better games.
