I expected Crafty to get a clear win, although I also expected lots of draws. Watching all the games so far real time changed my mind. For me Junior is the favourite by now and I would put my money on it if I had any to waste on risky bets ;). Book so far has been more of an advantage for Crafty btw. And when I forget about the few boring draws, watching the games has been huge fun. Peter
