Crucible predictions are coming true

Seven out of eight of my Crucible predictions have been right so far which isn't bad going: I think I might take this up for a living!
And, two of those had the correct scorelines: Stephen Maguire losing 10-9 to Anthony McGill and  Marco Fu beating Jimmy Robertson 10-6.
The only match so far that has left me with egg on my face is John Higgins thumping Robert Milkins 10-5. I fancied Milkins to pull off a result there, but I should remember not to write off the Scot.

My prediction              Result
Selby 10-4 Maflin           10-9
Maguire 9-10 McGill      9-10*
Hawkins 10-8 Selt          10-9        
Robertson 10-4 Jones     10-2
Walden 9-10 Dott           8-10
Fu 10-6 Robertson          10-6*
Bingham 10-4 Williams 10-7
Higgins 7-10 Milkins     10-5

* Correct scorelines predicted

If you fancy a flutter and want to follow some of my other predictions for the other first round matches here they are:

Ronnie O'Sullivan 10-2 Craig Steadman
Joe Perry 10-6 Zhang Anda
Mark Williams 10-8 Matthew Stevens
Shaun Murphy 10-5 Robin Hull
Mark Allen 7-10 Ryan Day
Ali Carter 9-10 Alan McManus
Judd Trump 10-3 Stuart Carrington
Ding Junhui 8-10 Mark Davis
