Tubber - I made my predictions blind and then looked at yours and we have a lot of similar predictions give or take the odd frame

Quick glance, shows that the worst anyone thinks JUDD will do is 6 frames. Nearly all going for Robbo, so this is where risk taking needs to be weighed up. Surprised by some picks on other matches in particular. Moonballers holding sway at the mo. Enter the BIG boy(s) tomorrow.

no faith being showed in trump
read properly - if the worst anyone thinks he will do is 6 frames, then no-one thinks it is a cake-walk, no-one thinks it will be a procession................most are predicting like sheep, following the herd. Some very conservative picking so far.
