JUDD TRUMP came up trumps yesterday and Tuesday sees the only player with shorter odds for glory attempt to join him in the last 16 of the snooker UK Championship.

Trump, who's now 5-1 for the title, eased past Fraser Patrick and all eyes today are on Ronnie O'Sullivan – the 27-10 favourite to lift the trophy – who should have little trouble seeing off Ben Woollaston.

The likes of Ding Junhui and Neil Robertson are also big odds-on to progress but it looks a much closer battle between Scotland's Stephen Maguire and twice world champion Mark Wiliams. Maguire is 8-11 and Williams 13-10.

In the Mosconi Cup pool showpiece, Europe take a 3-2 lead into day two and the International Tennis League action features golden oldies Goran Ivanisevic and Andre Agassi plus current stars Tomas Berdych and Serena Williams today.

There's loads of NBA and NHL matches to get the Stateside sport fans through the night and it would be remiss not to mention the top action Down Under where motormouth and former football star Jimmy Bullard was the shock first eviction on I'm a Celeb last night.

I thought he'd be right in the running to win so I'm glad I don't bet on TV shows – especially as some X Factor no-mark is now 5-4 favourite. Anyway, good luck with your bets folks and post your sporting tips and thoughts here.

    Just woke up to the final score of the Miami -Jets game

    Well what a disappointment!

    It sounded like an awful game and to cap it off I’ve just seen mike Wallace try a one handed catch TD! And fail! 2 hands man! 2 hands!

    Miami dolphins -5.5

    !!!!!!!LOST!!!!!!!!

    Sorry guys

  4. kevka 9 years ago

      Happy for you kevka mate :)

  5. cyburn 9 years ago

    Glad I had under 14.5 points for jets

  6. Mental mickey 9 years ago

    Backing England in odi cricket seems a sure fire way to the shit house but I think England could be value at 7/4 tomorrow.The pitch being used for the third match should suit their paceman and with S Lanka without Jayawarde I quite fancy England tomorrow.England actually played well in their first match yes the second match was poor but keep the faith and back them to come good tomorrow at 7/4

  7. dave 9 years ago

    Thanks for last night boys, just woken and seen the wincast came in put the pot on it so good times? any fancies for tonigths games

  8. winnerallright 9 years ago

    just watched miami v jets game highlights. Brutal stuff. miami had alot of chances to win easily. And Wallace with the one handed effort!! He must’ve watched beckhams catch too many times and thought he cud do it!! Damn…

  9. Jordan 9 years ago

    WA Miami had so many chances in the Jets territory second half but it was almost a repeat if Big Ben’s first half Sunday. Wallace yards came in and Tannehill was only 5 yards off his total. Not as if anyone would have backed the Jets but still not a great night.

    Posted these last night but my comment has been deleted for some unknown reason. The following spreads have changed in the first couple of hours of going up on the line and supposedly the sharps have backed the Pats and Texans heavily.

    Johnny football might be starting for the Browns but it’ll be a tough ask to outscore Luck and co and the -3.5 is generous.

    Denver will have their TE threat Thomas back while the Bills rookie WR and main threat Sammy Watson is out.

    Green Bay are Green Bay and if the spread is that high now it’s only going to get worse as the week goes by.

    Only unsure pick is the Lions but should cover against Tampa having covered a -16 handicap against the bears on Thanksgiving.

    Indianapolis Colts (-3.5) @ 20/23 (now -4)
    Detroit Lions (-9.5) @ 10/11
    Denver Broncos (-10.0) @ 10/11
    New England Patriots (-3.5) @ 10/11
    Green Bay Packers (-11.5) @ 10/11
    Houston Texans (-4.5) @ 20/23 (now -5)

    Singles, Texans/Pats Double @ 5/2, 15 smaller doubles, 45/1 sixfold

  10. honda 9 years ago

    Jordan, you havent mentioned the Seahawks I see haha gonna be tough but I have the faith in the boys, how are the Eagles at defending the rush?

    • Jordan 9 years ago

      Honda I haven’t mate. I think that’ll be a tough game for them. They may well get at them with the run but that Chip Kelly hurry up offense is hard for anyone to keep up with. Sanchez looking comfortable right now too.

  11. honda 9 years ago

    Yeah he is, worth looking at Lynch for the yards?

  12. Jordan 9 years ago

    Na I’m skipping that game altogether mate. I’ll only be adding the Eagles +handicap to the bonkers bet at the minute. Like the look of Matt Forte rushing yards on TNF against the Cowboys. Up at 85 at the moment but will get better options towards game day.

  13. Jordan 9 years ago

    Brandon Marshall yards fairly low at 60 too. Watched the Eagles offense tear dem Cowboys D apart last week. Marshall is Jay Cutlers go to guy.

  14. honda 9 years ago

    Fair enough good sir, let me know of your fav prop bets nearer the time then brother love and peace :)

  15. honda 9 years ago

    D not been bad though last 2 games pretty solid only conceded 3 in each game

  16. Jordan 9 years ago

    Think it’s going to be Forte for sure on Thursday mate. I’ll put up the markets as and when they come. Did you take the Wallace yards yesterday buddy?

    Seattle D has been good but the Eagles 6-0 at home and have only score under 34 points once (27). Hence the reason I’m leaving it out mate.

  17. honda 9 years ago

    Yeah no fair enough certainly going to be better bets on the weekend brother. Yeah took em but took the Miami spread so broke even but well up overall on the weekend so happy enough :) Gimme some Forte info eg team, position, is he the main or one of the main men, and the opposition ability to defend that type of play (rush/pass) Obviously if u want i can wait for the write up haha

    • Jordan 9 years ago

      Yeah I’ll add the stats when it goes up mate. We were unlucky with Miami but that’s how it goes. Peace and love x

  18. honda 9 years ago

    No worries man

  20. Scottylfc7 9 years ago

    No tips nba tonight ??

    • Attila 9 years ago

      Scotty, I was thinking the same..

      I was looking at the following 4-fold:

      – Warriors, Suns, Hawks & Cavaliers @ $2.50

      Fiddler or any of you NBA guys, does that look fairly safe?

    • Attila 9 years ago

      Not a tip, but I’ve just placed the 4 fold above. Researched form & looks like its in with a chance.

  21. Jordan 9 years ago

    For the main man that is honda.

    The Dallas Cowboys have given up 312 yards to RB’s in the last two weeks. Shady McCoy ran for 159 yards and a score in the Eagles 33-10 win at the AT&T on Thanksgiving.

    Justin Forte is the Chicago Bears 1st string RB, with Ka’Deem Carey being purely back up only having 35 attempts and 154 yards all season compared to Forte’ 201. Forte has ran 459 yards in 5 games at the Soldier Field this season, averaging 91.8 rush yards per game, with 101 attempts averaging 20.2 attempts per game, 4.5 yards per carry, scoring only 3 TD’s.

    Forte hasn’t only been used as a RB, he has 78 receptions for the season with 650 receiving yards. 277 of those yards have came at the Soldier Field from 30 recs, averaging 55.4 yards in 5 games averaging 6 recs per game, 9.2 yards per reception and 1 TD.

    Not too many markets yet but SS looks to be the Forte yards. Only Ladbrokes has them up at the moment but I expect that to change in the next few days. December is here and that means Romo goes on holiday. Jay Cutler doesn’t get put into the elite QB‘s of the NFL, but after a big loss he does usually come good, especially when he’s an underdog. Actually think the Bears might win this (sorry DeAndre, and Jerry) but I’ll be sticking to the prop bets on this one with maybe something else if I fancy it on the day. I think the Bears will attack both aerial and on the ground. Their two best receivers are questionable at the moment (WR Alshon Jeffery and TE Martellus Bennett) but WR Brandon Marshall who has 4 TD’s in 5 at home this season might be worth and Anytime shout going into week 14 against the Cowboys who have averaged 13 yards per carry to opponent wide receivers this season.

    Thoughts for TNF so far

    Forte rushing yards
    Forte rushing and receiving yards
    Marshall TD
    Over 51 points
