The world’s best snooker players have enjoyed a summer break following the World Championship and are now readjusting to post COVID-19 guidelines, with John Higgins being the defending champion although it should be noted that the Scot was the 2004 victory and this is the first year that the event has returned.
How Does the 2021 British Open Snooker Work?
The first round matches of the British Open take place between 16-18 August, with this being a best-of-five frame encounter, with this leading to some potentially shock victories. John Higgins has already made a maximum 147 break in this tournament and the round two matches are also first to three frames.
The same applies to round three and round four before we get to the last eight stage of the competition, with this being a best of seven frame encounter. The semi-finals and final are played on the same day, with the latter being a best of eleven encounter.
How to Bet on the British Open Snooker Matches
The matches at the British Open snooker tournament don’t last anywhere near as long as other tournaments such as the World Championship and some of the games are over within an hour considering any player at the competition can reel off three quick frames.
You can choose to bet on the winner of each British Open match for any round and also place a correct score bet in terms of the frame score, with any player possibly winning 3-0, 3-1 or 3-2 so there are only six potential outcomes for any match.
There is also the chance to bet In-Play on the snooker matches, with the bookies covering every game live and sometimes there might be live streaming available, with the action unfolding in front of your eyes where you can load up the live streams.
