International Championship: betting on the snooker tournament
International Championship is a snooker tournament from the professional tour, shown in the pre-match line as one betting group. Depending on what the line has opened so far, the group holds the matches of the draw, a card on the overall tournament winner, or both.
Backing the tournament winner
The card whose title ends in Winner covers the outcome of the whole event. A tap opens its outright page, with blocks built player by player around a Yes option, for instance:
Block name | What Yes needs from the player |
|---|---|
Who Will Win | to win the tournament |
To Reach Final | to play in the final, won or lost |
On the card itself, the list shows only part of the field, the players with the lowest prices; the outright page carries far more names.
When matches are on the board
In a group that lists the draw, each match has a page of its own, where bets on the winner, frames, handicaps and totals can appear. The snooker section of the rules, 10.23, describes these markets as well as a To Qualify bet between two named players: it goes to whichever of them advances further in the tournament bracket.
If both are knocked out, the one who reached the later round takes it; if they go out in the same round, odds of 1 apply. A withdrawal before the tournament starts also brings the odds down to 1.
. Real stakes require a 1xBet account, created through registration.
Every other snooker tournament open for betting has a group of its own in the Snooker section.
