RONNIE O'SULLIVAN takes to the table in the Masters quarter-final on Thursday after two former winners headed for the exit yesterday.
John Higgins was beaten by Mark Allen and Ding Junhui became the latest victim of an upset as Joe Perry sent him crashing. The Rocket is 2-9 with Boylesports to dispose of Marco Fu
(9-2, bet365) and I'll be on Ronnie at 3-4 with Coral in the first four frames market.
The other last-eight match today sees world No.1 Neil Robertson the 4-9 favourite with Paddy Power against Ali Carter, chalked up at 9-4 by Ladbrokes.
Plenty of golf's big names are teeing it up at the Abu Dhbai Championship that gets under way this morning so be sure to check out our resident tipster Ace Venturer's golf post that includes his top picks for the Euro Tour event and PGA's Sony Open.
And England's cricketers begin their ODI Tri-Series against Australia in the early hours of Friday morning, with the tourists 2-1 at bet365 and the Aussies 4-9 at Stan James to bag victory in the opener.
Elsewhere the NBA comes to London tonight with rock-bottom New York Knicks hoping the change of scene brings them a change of luck when they take on Milwaukee Bucks at the O2.
There's also plenty of tennis action among the sporting highlights so post your tips and chat here and good luck if you're having a bet.

You’re very welcome mate. Hopefully now sufficiently far into the season to be able to call things with a little more confidence. Bring on the Australian open!
If my calculations are correct 15-16-19 will be out in todays 49’s. That’ll be my trixie for today is the footy doesn’t appeal.
Huggybear, Attila & Ad – Thanks for the tips.
torn between 2 for my ss , memphis -6 hawks -7….
apparently nets are missing k garnett and d williams they are desperate to hold on to the final playoff spot but dont see em getting the win tonight..

Milwaukee … vs carmelo anthony .. ????
Well done on NBA boys as ever – and TY Huggy for the advice re. bookies and additional spreads
I <3 OKC tonight!
Ad
Was on your tip for karatenchiva (spelling). Wiped the floor and even a break down in 2nd still ended up winning 6-2 6-2. Good spot. Well done mate
No problem mate. Had a pretty top day at the races (tennis) if I do say so myself!
Tomic busted my 9/2 treble, going down 15-13 in the second set tiebreak.
But everything else I posted came in:
Kukushin to win @ 9/4
Kukushin +3.5 games @ 10/11
Over 21.5 games @ 8/11 NAP
Heather Watson d Vinci @ 10/11
Karantacheva d Linette @ 4/5
Pliskova d Kerber @ 7/5
:)
Going to ease myself into the tennis day gently with a challenger tip from Casablanca:
Laslo Djere to beat Florent Serra @ 21/20. start time 14:00
I’ll be back with the real stuff in a bit!
Anderson v Vesely
Over 22.5 games @ 8/11 with PP
Two big hitters who dominate behind their serve. Vesely playing well enough to nick this, let alone keep it close.
Huggybear, if Bucks game spread is going to be 12/13 I might go with the Knicks cos the game is played in London. Will defo be in my rolling acca with additional spread plus the Lakers. Cavs and OKC need wins but I think Lakers will keep it close and OKC gonna loose to Houston. Don’t know if I’ll have my nap today.
The bar for that one is set at over 23.5 with every other bookie.
Well that’s unfortunate.
Atlanta Hawks over 100.5 – 105
Portland Trail Blazers over 99.5 – 94
@ 0.86/1 @ Skybet **LOSE**
Smaller bet add
Golden State Warriors over 102.5 – 104
Dallas Mavericks over 99.5 – 107
@ 9/4 @ Skybet **LOSE**
Hopefully I’ve picked the right two for the main bet (Turns out I didn’t) Apologies those who followed.
Hya Jordan unlucky last night but that’s the way it goes.Tonights another night good luck mate.!!!!!!!
If anyone backed Petra Kvitova to win Sydney @ 5/1 ( I know Heimdall didn’t!) she is now 1/2 to lift the trophy. Pliskova can be backed @2/1 as cover of desired.
Cheers tickety not many games on tonight so won’t have anything mate
Thanks ad. Ya got me bragging rights with kukushkin. His pick lost in 3. I will be picking tonight at proper stakes. Early thoughts are broady to beat russell, Bemelmans to beat morita or mertl to beat ymer. Does anyone have any insight into these picks
What you think of the mil bucks spread only 6.5 huggy?
Huggy bucks game set at 6.5. What are your thoughts,
Ad yet again top notch. Won convincingly. Keep them coming mate
Made it look easy at that price cheers ad
cheers eastcoaster, i’ll do my best!
A small stakes treble on Australian Open Qualies:
Pavlasek d Hernych (23:00)
Kuznetsov d G.Melzer (23:00)
Jenkins d Cecchinato (01:00)
pays 5.25
Not the safest bet ever, but after a fair few winners in the last 24 hours i’m happy to risk a couple of quid on what looks a good price.
Pavlasek is the riskiest of the three so i’m also doing a double on Kuznetsov and Jenkins which pays 2.33
Woohoo, perfect night again. Though todays card is looking terrible but I did find smth.
Rolling acca
NY KNICKS +12.5
LA LAKERS +12.5
42.55£ Returns 75.74£
And todays NAP
THUNDER V ROCKETS under 208.5
Todays , super single is gonna be either bucks game u198, do like the -7 though or thunder game to go under 205 as mentioned at the start of the thread .
also think a desperate cavs side will win and cover 6.
As its the early tv game , for some interest and i fancy it , its bucks u198 for me ..
super single bucks u 198 ….. lets make it 7 from 8
Brian Tennis- I don’t have much insight to offer on those matchups other than the fact that Mertl has been quite well backed. Opened at a best price of 6/5 and now a best 10/11. Normally a good sign for someone’s chances
Ymer is supposed to be a bright young thing though and I’ve seen him tipped to have a good year. I’m gutted I didn’t back him to upset Paire as I woudbe been all over that had I not missed it. A very impressive result for the youngster despite Paire’s flakiness.
tip for the day bucks -6.5 gl
unfortunately Pistons let me down too yesterday but j went with Atlanta and Grizzlies also.
Tonight I like the Knicks to loose that’s about it really. I feel like rockets should beat okc too but j haven’t looked at okc for a while
Gl everyone
Waited long inuf for spread to go up for Knicks and I am taking also
KNICKS +8 as my NB
A showcase game and there ain’t better showmen than Carmelo
i am going to go for lAkers under 99 they seem to be a bit awful although some signs of Kobe coming back to form. in one of the worst nba games I’ve seen 78-75
Huggy – I lumped on Bucks -8.0, Under 198,5 and also on a double of Bucks -6.5 & Under 198.5.
Looking good so far! Need a big win as I’ve taken a massive hit this past week!!!
I still don’t know what to do for the later games. When IKC was +2.0 I would have taken that but now they are -2.0 and I’m not sure.
Huggy, did you research the UNDERS for OKC game? What u reckon?
Also, I like Cavs -6.0 for the late late game…its a must win do or die game for them as far as their season is concerned.
if my ss comes in , i`m going under 208 in rock/okrt game, posted earlier , also think cavs HAVE to get the job done.
speak later if ss wins
WTA AUSSIE QUALIFYING TONIGHT:
Buyukakcay d Golubic
Pereira d Bychkova
double pays 2.72
Thanks ad I’m took mertl for first set. Always like a big server in the first set
Pereira is getting pounded now. Could well be worth a single, still available at 1/1 with bet365 and boylesports, she’s gone below evens everywhere else.
Sweet, what a great win.
Bucks -8.0 @ $1.92 – WON
Bucks/Knicks <198.5 @ $1.92 – WON
Bucks -6.5 & <198.5 @ $3.30 – WON
$125 becomes $275…get in there!!!
Cheers Huggy Bear another SS Winner.
I doubled it up with Bucks -4 for a very nice profit.
Keep up your good work..one of the best tipsters around.
NHL overnight
Tampa & St Louis O4.5 double
There you go guys my super single in nice and early…. Told you the awful Knicks would lose whatever the spread…..
LIike to keep to what I know , the daily single even though I advised the – 7 was set way too low.
well done Attila some funds back.
So that’s 7 from 8 Super single winners !!!!!!, God knows overall…..
THINK IM GONNA CHUCK A BIT ON THE UNDER IN THE ROCKETS GAME AS THAT WAS MY OTHER CHOICE..
HOPE A FEW WERE ON!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck guys..
Ta Huggy, good tip tonight sir!
Ta Huggy, good tip tonight sir!
All good huggy !!
Cheers
Huggy, I’m lumping on the UNDER 210.0 in the Rockets/OKC game as well. These following stats are what back up my choice to lump on:
– The total has gone UNDER in 15 of Houston’s last 19 home games.
– The total has gone UNDER in 8 of the last 10 matchups.
All the stats point in favor of a ROCKETS win, however after their demanding game that went to overtime last night and OKC being fresh, its too tough to call.
Huggy is there a big gamble on the thunder tonight? I noticed the spread has went from rockets-1.5 to rockets+2.5.
I just cant touch any Thunder at the minute as they have got me annoyed to much.
Gl guys.
Tomtie .. Sorry mate not had time to look but usually that’s down to team news.. I felt the total here would go under and Attila has been kind enough to post some stats that echo this.
ALWAYS hard to call these two if I was pushed and I’m not , so gut feeling only no money placed I’d take thunder -2.5…
GOOD LUCK GUYS!!!!!!
Hopefully it’ll start slow and I can think about cavs -6 … Let u know later
Ok thanks huggy ive cashed out had the bucks on the handicap with rockets -1.5 so cashed it out stuck stake on the unders ive been following both yourself and atilla for wee while now so ill trust both yous guys not huge ammount anyway and id be kicking myself if the thunder won and i had ignored the weight of money for them.
Who do u think will win the snooker outright MR F
Christy, can’t see past Ronnie – tipped strongly by Johnb at the start.
Low stakes 4 Fold (NCAA & NHL):
– Cincinnati Bearcats +5.5 ($1.48) – NCAA
– Middle Tennessee ML ($1.48) – NCAA
– Boston Bruins +1.5 ($1.19) – NHL
– Calgary Flames +1.5 (1.29) – NHL
4 FOLD pays odds of $3.36 (low stakes)
Huggy, cheers for ss, got bet on in play, thanks, good luck tonight everyone!!
Anybody fancy any tennis inplay…let me know your thoughts..thanks
RONNY A TIP?
Under 207.5 rockets game 11/10 skybet and tough call but fancy fresh legged oct to win this minus 2.5
Got some tips through the night.
Tennia double:
Heather Watson 6/5.
Chung 4/9.
Treble:
Mannarino 2-0 5/6
Ymer 5/6
Fernando versasco 5/6
Set double:
Verdasco 2-1 3/1
Heather Watson 2-0 3/1
If anyone jumped on my 4 Fold – Boston is up 2-0, Bearcats are within spread & Mid. Tennessee are in from so all looking good so far!
Glad u didn’t jump on the OKC spread band wagon. No idea why so much money went on then, rockets are smashing them, lol
Rockets are gonna kill the UNDERS if they don’t slow down…mental!
Houston have had lift off.
Lets hope they crash in 2nd half.Doubt it tho.
Never other till last ball is thrown
Need both remaining quarters to be under 48 points…not holding my breath.
Hope Rockets tire and go into defense mode…need the game to slow down, its hectic so far.
Its one of them games to much rest oct not really done any good where as rockets still playing at high tempo think be lucky if it goes under now as oct still close enough 2 get in it so put it down 2 bad night but anything can happen attila
Just looked back at rockets home game vs Portland few weeks ago.. Was 126 points at half time but slowed and finished with 205…so there’s still hope!
Better quarter…only 46 points. Leaves 47 to play with in the last HUGGY! Nail biting stuff ahead, lol
You putting something on Cavs -6.5 mate?
What do you think of a game Double: Cavs -5.5 & over 203.5? Pays $2.75…
Attila. Looking at Cavs -6.5 and total ov 207. Any thoughts?
I’m not gonna do the overs… Kobe an LA shot less rlthan 30% last game.. Can’t trust em to score many. Just doing -6.5 cavs
I’ve just done ov 207 @10/11
sorry guys , alseep and missed the -6 cavs but too be honest would only had jumped on if the rockets obliged , hate losing by 3 points , under 209.5 and they hit 213
that hurts !!! hope you all made money on the cavs
just seen the play by play , 9 point last minute , hurts even more now…
Cheers lads two singles came up and total bust the treble but a good evening nonetheless!
