    Have to say I'm a blow in fan of snooker for the few weeks that this does be on. Is anybody into it and can offer tips??
    Just looking at the odds and I reckon I'll take some of Selby at 13/2. Marco Fu looks big at 40/1 although hes in a tough quarter. Was reading earlier that a large bet was put on Anthony Hamilton at 150/1 so someone obviously knows something ;)

    If the headaball O'Sullivan has his head straight he'll win it.

    Mark Williams is decent value at 20's and Graham Dott is 100's another former winner.

    Any of you get on Liverpool to beat fulham last weekend at 11/10? It was like free money couldnt believe it when i seen the price

    I hate betting on Liverpool but I was tempted to do that bet. A lad on TLW also tipped the winner of the Scottish National which was 100/1 at the time. I was all set to head down to Hills at 215 when lazyness kicked in :(

    I would like to see Williams win the snooker. I've always been a fan of his.

    He has also recently been diagnosed with depression,which I am sure would not help his price or game.

    the game between Swail and Lliang last night was brillant. Down to the last frame, both missed sitters, wasn't sure who I was up for
