THE biggest event in snooker gets under way this weekend and defending champ Mark Selby is gunning for a third World Championship title in four years.
The world No.1 is currently joint title favourite alongside Judd Trump – who has never conquered the Crucible – at 9-2 with Paddy Power.
The unpredictable Ronnie O'Sullivan is close behind at 5-1 while other hopefuls include Ding Junhui and Neil Robertson at 12s and 2015 champ Stuart Bingham at 20-1.
There won't be a women in the line-up after Reanne Evans' historic bid to became the first female player to qualify was ended by a 10-6 defeat to Lee Walker yesterday.
There's more qualifying action today featuring the likes of Martin Gould, Peter Ebdon and Michael White.
The NBA regular season reaches its penultimate round of fixtures tonight and Jordan will post his tips below.

McmANUS letting the side down yesterday. Some more qualifiers today to have a look at.
Main double a winner with six from seven on the acca. Perming was the way. Heat let the boys down only winning by 3 points.
Celtics -5
Bulls -2
87/100 @ Skybet – 2.5 points

Pacers -4
Heat -6
83/10 @ Skybet – 0.5 a point
Can perm them if you want
When’s that double for mate?
Unlucky to lose by a few points Jordan but even doing them with permutations would have resulted in a loss because the odds weren’t that big and there are 7 six folds.
@geo as you see I didn’t perm them, I did them in the full acca. Hence still in profit.

Rangers & Mariners are both underdogs @ evens, which i think is a steal as i prefer there starting pitchers tonight but thats just my opinion also think Diamondbacks @ evens have a chance agaisnt SF Giants due to Giants pitcher Jeff Samardzija starting , would make a 4 fold @ 11/1 so doing £5 free bet on that.
