The July 19th event will see the tournament resume with C and D Block's second round contests. In this post, I'll go through all of the markets and point out what each selections' price is.
The opening bout will see BetOnline's favourite to win the entire tournament - Zack Sabre Jr. - meet the 'tournament joker' - Toru Yano.
Yano is a +1,100 underdog. A win for ZSJ will pay out at odds of -10,000.
The second match will see Bullet Club leader - David Finlay - compete against TMDK's Mikey Nicholls. Both men left the first round with wins.
Finlay is favoured with a price of -500 to Nicholls' +300.
Jeff Cobb - who beat Tetsuya Naito in Sunday's main event - will look to pick up another two points when he competes against Alex Coughlin. Coughlin is coming off a loss to Shane Haste from the opening weekend.
BetOnline lists Cobb at -300. A win for Coughlin is priced +200.
The bookmakers have placed both EVIL and Eddie Kingston at -120 pick 'ems for their second round match. Both men won over the weekend with the former beating Tama Tonga and Kingston earning two points against Shingo Takagi.
The fifth match on the card will see Hiroshi Tanahashi battle Shane Haste to try and pick up his first points of the tournament following Sunday's loss to ZSJ.
Tanahashi is -200 while those looking to bet on Haste building on Sunday's win over Alex Coughlin can find him at +150.
Also at -200 is Shingo Takagi, who will meet Henare (+150) in a meeting between two wrestlers on zero points at this early stage.
The semi-main for tomorrow has Hirooki Goto (+500) versus Tetsuya Naito (-1,000). Goto is coming into this one with two points from a decision over Toru Yano. Naito - on the other hand - is on zero following the aforementioned loss to Jeff Cobb in last Sunday's headliner.
Finally, the show will close with Tomohiro Ishii and Tama Tonga. Both will enter the main event with zero points apiece.
The bookmakers have Tonga as a -150 fave to Ishii's +110.
The event kicks off at 10:30AM BST (5:30AM Eastern and 2:30AM Pacific for those in the US).
