GOLDEN OLDIE Alan McManus is through to his first snooker World Championship semi-final in 23 years after edging out fellow Scot and title favourite John Higgins in a thriller.

McManus – a 300-1 shot before the tournament began – is now 14s at Sportingbet for glory and 9-2 at marathonbet to make it past last-four opponent Ding Junhui (1-5, Stan James).

Ding tops the title betting at 13-10 (marathonbet) followed by world No.1 Mark Selby, who is 7-4 at Skybet and takes on Marco Fu in today's semis.

In Super League there's a top-of-the-table clash as Warrington host Wigan while the darts Premier League rolls on to Birmingham with play-off spots still up for grabs.

There's also plenty of tennis and Atlanta Hawks at Boston Celtics in the NBA play-offs, so post your tips and chat below and good luck with your bets.

    I would love to see McManus win this title however 7/4 for Selby is a very good price. Selby has admitted he’s not been playing his best snooker this tournament however he’s number 1 in world for a reason! What you thinking @jordan. Is it worth a few points?

    Boston – Atlanta – Atlanta(+1.5) @ 1.73 Unibet

    Golden State Warriors -9 @ 1.90 (Bet 365) – 2 Points. – *WON*

    Miami Heat -5 @ 1.90 (PP) – 2 Points. – *LOST*

    LA Clippers +3 @ 1.90 (Bet 365) – 2 Points. – *LOST*

    Warriors killed it as expected, and probably should have stuck to 1 bet per night. Most surprising result has to be Hornets winning in Miami…. ?

    Anyway, not the bounce back I was looking for ?

    Nice one @jordan on the Blazers, will take the series now.

    Cheers Raoul mate. Same. Big motivation knowing they can win it at home now. Round 2 will be interesting.

    • raoul duke 8 years ago

      Be interesting to see what the line opens.

      I always planned to take Blazers in game 6, win or lose last night.

    NBA Playoffs: Bet 16

    Boston Celtics ML @ 2.10 (Bet 365) – 2 Points.

    I don’t have time for a big write up, off out tonight.

    But this one is going to game #7.

    Good luck.

    Snooker semi finals think m Selby on outright market 15/8 on betfair is decent world no 1 been a tournament of shocks but think he the one to be on 2 pts for me

  13. iceman 8 years ago

    Jordan, I fancy Celtics to win tonight to take to a final game decider but just wanted to know your thoughts?

  14. primetime 8 years ago

    Put it up the other day about taking Lenard Floyd being the 1st OLB being drafted. I took it when it was at 7/1, put it up here when it was 6/1, he is now 6/5.

    If anyone took it, it might be a good idea to lock in the profit but I am letting mine run.

  15. nflfan 8 years ago

    Ye thx primetime poxy 5 pound on at 11/2 for the fun wish I had more u know ur stuff ?

    • primetime 8 years ago

      Haha we will see, I might look like a mug if Jack gets picked ahead of Floyd still, could happen but I am chancing it.

      Posted this on the football thread but had a few quid on Corey Coleman being the 1st WR taken. Currently 3/1, reasons are up on the other thread, but basically, think teams will value explosive speed rather than route running, hence the bet. But its only small stake for a bit of interest.
