snookersfun's predictions

snookersfun entrusted me, in her absence, to post her predictions. She gave me a complicated algorithm to work out what these should be, which I have applied with the utmost diligence - so here are snookersfun's semi-final predictions (hopefully calculated correctly!):

6-1 Neil Robertson v Barry Hawkins, OR
6-3 Neil Robertson v Ray Reardon, OR
7-6 Neil Robertson v Neil Robertson
-1½-3.141592654 Neil Robertson v Rupert the Bear

Highest Break 156

Highest break… hmmm, she didn't give one, so I am not sure what to do. Should I give one on her behalf? I'll go for 23.
