Odds on Williams way too high.

I'll be taking that in a double with Selby.

 

Williams wasn't great in the first round though. But performances this year have been very good. O'Sullivan struggling a bit this year. Mark has an awful record against Ronnie though. It's a risky bet but confidence must be sky high at the moment for Mark and he almost beat him in the UK a few months ago.

 

Newcastle look great value at 1/2 or anything higher (I got 1.56 and 1.57 on Betfair) this weekend. Confidence is at an all time high for the season, a number of different players are in form and scoring golas, full crowd to get behind the team and we'll be looking to break the 100 point barrier.

I also like the look of Everton at anything around 4/11 against Fulham. Fulham have been poor away from home in the league and are just home after a ridiculous journey to Germany. Can see them still being focussed on the Europa league and Everton are on a great run.

What are everyone's thoughts on Arreola vs Adamek now the fight is near? I took a little piece of Chris at 7/4 about a month ago but he's in as favourite now and as short as 4/5 with most bookies.

Edit: Just had a look at oddschecker and the bookies are split over a favourite for the fight.

 

Bet on Neil Robertson with -4.5 handicap and it's getting completely shat on so far.

 

I like Ali Carter. I think I'll have him with Selby and maybe make it a treble with Newcastle. That lot is about 8/5 as a treble with BETFRED

 

Bet down the pan... Gould very impressive this morning. The break never helps the underdogs though. Long time to stew on the worry of winning.

 

They are 2 decent bets them, all is not well down at Cas, the fans are protesting and are not happy one little bit.

Also Cas this week they lost two of the players they had on loan, Ainscough from Wigan and Cooper from Warrington, they also have a long injury list.

 

I did Munroe UD, Kessler UD and Mayweather UD treble 14/1 with skybet:good

 

Froch is 10/1 to win in rounds 10 - 12, Kessler is the same price. Could be tempted to put a tenner on one of them.

 

That's a good bet. If I did that one, it would be for Froch to stop Kessler late, possibly on cuts. Might stick a few quid on that actually.

 

What are my chances of winning the poker SnG I've currently entered?

On a losing streak. Finished 3rd in each of the last two I've entered. 6 handed.

 

Yeah I'm leaning towards Froch for some reason, despite the injury concerns over the past few days. I don't see an earlier KO for either fighter and I think Froch will do his best to avoid the judges. Tough one to call...

 

How do you see the Froch-Kessler fight going?
