That 33's on ANDERSON is looking a tatsy bet now BKM .
Watched his win against Marshall and the young lad played brilliantly after he lost the 1st set when i thought it was all over for him .
Marshall played some great Bowls but Anderson kept focused and won the tie-break .

GL to him in the next round

GL to him in the next round

I was at college today and at lunchtime managed to watch the last end of the 1st set and the first 4 ends of the 2nd set. As already mentioned but anybody that is half decent will have a chance.

I can't get logged on to TDP at college cause it's gambling but Ross nailed Big Bhartu 2-0 in the later match.

Ross will probably play Glasson
Harlow/Twist v Foster (Burnett was unluck going out 7-7, 8-9 )
Fancy Brett to beat Breen v Gourlay
Anderson v Price or Greenslade - not saw price or greenslade this year but anderson put out a better bowler in marshall today so kind off fancy his chances

[Bigkegman]

Brett beat Breen and now plays Gourlay and paxton beat glasson

Thursdays games
Price 6/5 v Greenslade 8/13
Harlow 2/7 v Twist 5/2

Fridays games
Brett 7/4 v Gourlay 2/5
Ross 8/13 v Paxton 6/5

[Bigkegman]

tomorrow is quarter finals

22 Jan. 10:00
David Gourlay 2/5 Nick Brett 7/4

22 Jan. 14:30
Greg Harlow evens Paul Foster 8/11

22 Jan. 14:45
Jonathan Ross 8/13 Robert Paxton 6/5

22 Jan. 19:30
Stewart Anderson 2/5 John Price 7/4

[Bigkegman]

Even if you havent got an interest in bowls there is a cracking game tomorrow on at 2.30pm. It'll either be on bbc2 or press the red button.

Harlow Evens v Foster 8/11
Harlow hasn't been doing that well of late but has hit form at the right time and Foster is pretty consistant ...... as for a winner - too close to call - flip of a coin

other games - bookies have probably got them about right. I could risk Paxton at 6/5 though as i would have priced this up about 5/6 the pair.

Price is no mug and will give Anderson a game of it but after Anderson beating Tattie he'll be confident of beating Price and 2/5 no thanks

Havent saw Gourlay play this time yet but would probably expect him to beat Brett but I'm leaving this game alone. small chance of upset but gourlay odds way too low.

[Bigkegman]

Harlow beats Foster, Anderson hammers Price, Brett upsets Gourlay and Paxton is currently 1-0 up against Ross.

so it looks like

Brett v Anderson
Paxton v Harow.

[Bigkegman]

edit that Ross is well up in the 2nd set - it look like its going to a tie break to see who plays Harlow tomorrow

[Bigkegman]

Paxton eneded up beating Ross 2-0

Anderson beat Brett and Harlow beat Paxton so it's

Anderson 8/13 v Harlow 6/5

missed the semi finals today so dont know how they played but i'm going to let my 33/1 bet on Anderson ride

[Bigkegman]

some quarter final action here if nobody knows what we are talking about

BBC iPlayer - Bowls Extra: 2010: Day 5

[Bigkegman]

Anderson got beat 2-0 in the final by Harlow

He played well enough, Harlow got the better breaks but I though Andersons choice of shots on a couple of occasions was poor but thats why he is in the final and i'm sitting watching him.

The first end rather than try to draw the shot when only 1 was against - he tried to run the white.... he was a baw hair tight but ended up giving Harlow 3 - if he drew the shot then he's 1-0 up but if he failed then he's only 1-0 down..... he lost the set 9-8

nevermind - I got a run for my dosh
