Good run from Angles this week but I’m glad Luca won.

Oh right. Yeah, I just pulled a Joe Johnson and forgot how long the matches are. (Remember that from last year?)
A bit like the Tour Championship. Still a pity both can't be televised.

Neil Robertson is having his best ever season and if it wasent for some inspired play by Mark Allen in the International Championship Final and the Great Ronnie O'Sullivan it could have been so much Better reaching 5 Finals so far and hes favarite this week to make it no 6 and will be going to Sheffield as one of the fave to win his second World Championship.

He's certainly got some form going in.
I also make him second favourite after Ronnie.
For some reason, I can see Bingham having a run again. Maybe semi-finals. Not as champion though.
Then again, my pre-tournament Crucible predictions are almost always wrong. So take that with a pinch of salt.

I said it yesterday. If Robertson wins the China Open and therefore moves to the easier upper half of draw in Sheffield he'll be the strong favourite to get to the final.

As long as he can avoid Robert Milkins in the first round. The draw will be critical for Robertson's chances.

Anybody who wants to win the tournament usually wants to get to the final. If they don't, they don't win.

To win it you have to get to the final first. And if Robertson moves to the upper half he'll have a very strong chance to do so. In fact I can't see any player in that half stopping him unless someone plays out of his skin.
The ones who are capable of beating him are all in the other half and he'd only play one of them and that will be in the final.

I have a question. If Bingham (current world no 11) gets to the final and loses he'll have the same number of ranking points as the World no 10 Ding (448500).
So who would be in front then?
