snooker world championship

[Hardy]

I decided to keep one eye on Betfair while I was watching the final session last night and the odds fluctuations on the overall winner market were crazy. At one stage, during the 23rd frame, Selby's price went from 3.8 out to 7 – this for the man with the momentum, two frames behind and with 13 frames left. So I had a bet at 7. A few minutes later, during the same frame, he was back down to 4. So I laid him at 4, setting up a win-win. It's lovely when that happens. If only it would happen more often.

Jaysus 8 years since this thread was live, does nobody follow the old snooker anymore?? While it'll never get back to the 1980s interest levels I always regard the World Championships as compulsory viewing..

Current champion Selby gone already, Ronnie obviously will feature if he can be arsed... but I think Ding is playing well enough to win it out.

Enjoy the snooker although not to the same extent as years ago. Like to see the irish lads go well. Yer man allen is decent though too much to say at times. Find Ronnie a bit boring too and that socks stunt was a bit of a joke

Mark Allen beaten 13-11 by Barry Hawkins. Allen was 11-8 up.

Mark Allen beaten 13-11 by Barry Hawkins. Allen was 11-8 up.

He would need to get his act together soon as time running out, he hasn't the best personalities in fairness, have a bit of it but not as good as years gone by

Quietly turning out to be a very interesting and open c'ship, and one which will get better and better in the later rounds. All the attacking players are making progress; any of Robertson, Junhui, Trump, O'Sullivan and my tip, Murphy, could win it.

Bring the old theme music back. New version is brutal. That's why interest is waning.

Brilliant climax to the 2nd semi final. Stuart Bingham beating Judd trump 17-16. Would love to see him win it now, Shaun Murphy always seems like a real smug bollox.

[macdanger2]

Bingham will be knackered after tonight, would like to see him win it though

[Agent Orange]

Bingham's Bangors have gone, still hope he wins it.

[Syferus]

Great match.

[BennyHarp]

Murphy having a mare with this snooker!

Looking at his Wiki page, I would say Murphy has had a tough enough life.

[ONeill]

This is looking like a late one

Bingham's safety play is superb.
