Ding vs Trump will be the key game of this round as a lot of people have differed on that one.
I am now in prime position, one point behind you.
I've got no chance now. Needed Ding to win.

If Ronnie gets a maximum and wins the title, then I will be champ myself. (Admittedly, only champ of an obscure snooker website but never mind.)

So then, down to business regarding predictionsThe current table doesn't include the predictions of SavoMilosevic for these were handed in after the deadline but before the commencement of play in the matches predicted. As it stands these predictions won't be counted due to them being made after the 10am deadline on Tuesday morning. The main reason for this having discussed it with Wild is that having strictly applied the rule twice to other entries, it would seem unfair on those predictors to then allow leeway for a third. Other avenues have been explored, (including rescoring those entries since discounted for being past deadlines - but that has seen a potential major shift in the contest scoring - moving the entrant to within touching distance of the lead and it was felt that it wouldn't seem fair on those who've made all predictions on time should the rescoring have played a role in the outcome of the eventual contest.
As ADC did say there are rules - but he's aware of the elastic on them - particularly in sending predictions when technically he should've been disqualified in 2014

Hopefully Bingham reaches the Final, otherwise it would be very unlikely that I'd win since a lot of people nominated Trump as a finalist.

Scores in squared brackets represent the maximum score a player can achieve in the contest now. - Vodkadiet and BarryDoherty54 have been credited with six points for predicting Shaun Murphy to reach the Final. Should Shaun Murphy win the final then they'll be credited with six more. Likewise if Murphy makes a Maximum in the final AC or LT? will receive 12 points for that prediction.
Can players in bold please PM their predictions to me as Mathematically they can still win the contest
2015 BETFRED WORLD SNOOKER CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL - BEST OF 35 FRAMES - DEADLINE 2PM SUNDAY 3RD MAY 2015
18-18 SHAUN MURPHY [8, ENG] v STUART BINGHAM [10, ENG]
Good Luck all!

lol
I picked Robbo and Trump to reach the Final. Trump almost did it, but I'm happy he didnt
Plus I pretty much lost the contest by predicting Higgins, Allen and Dott would win their last matches.

I half wanted to replace Selby with Murphy, but never thought about Bingo.

From quarters onwards I picked Bingham to lose all the time which cost me. He also knocked out one of my tournament picks, Ronnie.

Big congrats to McChazzz
Nicely timed surge to the top
I wish you the very best of luck in the defence of your title next year
Thanks as always to the Ref for sparing the time to run the contest
I'm happy with 6th I suppose
getting both semis wrong did for my chances
Nice to finish with full points on the final especially considering I went wholeheartedly with what I wished the result would be. Thanks Bings
