World snooker Championship qualifiers

Do you have to put a deposit on one of those sites to open an account Trains

to open an account I don't think you do but to watch streams you have to put a deposit of I think a minimum fiver ,perfectly reasonable and great value in my opinion , for example last Sunday on I think betfair as well as the wst snooker pro series which I could have watched but didn't care about I watched Valencia vs Granada in the Spanish la liga , some of a serie b Italian match just out of curiosity between Brescia and salernitana , and switched between some Major League Baseball games , what's not to like .

I agree with trains John, I use bet365 and I love it, best ten quid I've spent in years, except I haven't spent it, it's just sitting there so I can withdraw it any time I like. Doesn't matter which tournament it is, they always have it, so there's no messing around trying to find out who's showing it and if there are multiple tables involved, they show more than Eurosport. Give it a try, you literally have nothing to lose.

have you tried betfair yet PB , i think its probably at least as good as bet365 , not trying to stir up any competition between the two i'm too fond of them for that .
do you get a reality check reminder after every hour on bet365 to remind you of responsible gambling ? this little nuisance here might just have been me when registering with bet365 as i don't get any such unnecessary reminder with betfair , just to double check i had the whole of the second session of the trump vs hawkins match on betfair last night and it streamed uninterrupted without any reminder .

i asked bet365 if they can get rid of it but they said they can't so my preference now would have to be betfair , but again bet365's very good too , just be careful when registering with bet365 to avoid the reality check reminder .

No I don't get anything like that trains, just asks me if I want to remain logged in from time to time. I might take a look at betfair though, if they let me use paypal to deposit.

Thanks Trains and PB, will have a look at bet 365 I'm not a gambler so like you my money will just sit there.

I've just set up my betfair account, the stream was a bit juddery to start off with, but seems to have settled down now.
So far so good.

[John Flaf]

I've had a look on both but cant find snooker, all sorts of other stuff. so how do you search for a sport, the qualifiers start on 5 April so i've got time. I bloody hope they show SH vs JW thats one I want to watch.

PS do I have to register first? Oh and I've got ad blocker set up will that make a difference.

Juddery haha you sound like you might be half decent at countdown , when i used to watch it i was good at the numbers but always got caned with the letters and conundrum , bit odd in a way as i had the highest reading age in my primary school , my last teacher there said i should read more but i never did really , need to institutionalise myself a bit more with reading i think .

You should read more trains, why? Well, Andy Partridge of XTC put it far better than I could:

Books are burning
In the main square, and I saw there
The fire eating the text
Books are burning
In the still air
And you know where they burn books
People are next

I believe the printed word should be forgiven
Doesn't matter what it said
Wisdom hotline from the dead back to the living
Key to the larder for your heart and your head

Books are burning
In our own town, watch us turn 'round
And cast our glances elsewhere
Books are burning
In the playground
Smell of burnt book is not unlike human hair

I believe the printed word is more than sacred
Beyond the gauge of good or bad
The human right to let your soul fly free and naked
Above the violence of the fearful and sad

The church of matches
Anoints in ignorance with gasoline
The church of matches
Grows fat by breathing in the smoke of dreams
It's quite obscene

Books are burning
More each day now, and I pray now
You boys will tire of these games
Books are burning
I hope somehow, this will allow
A phoenix up from the flames

--------------------

besides anything else, it's bloody good fun.

(Apologies for the off topic post John, hope you don't mind.)

You need to click on "In Play" at the top of the screen, then scroll along the "In Play" bar (with the little sport icons at the top of the page) from left to right until you see the snooker balls icon, click on that and you get a list of current matches, once you register you can click on a match and watch it.

Hope that helps.

I use to watch (some of) the qualifiers at bet365 as well. But what was always annoying me is that I couldn't make that tv window really big? Do you know if this is possible?

i think its dependant on what device you're using , i have a chromebook and a 10.3.3 ipad , i can't make the window big on either bet365 or betfair on the chromebook but i can on both betting sites on the ipad .
