I've taken a keen interest in the 21 Year Old Chinese rising star Liang Wembo (prior to World Championship) due to his excellent break building record. As this was his first major tournament, there were unknowns regarding how his temperament would hold up in the World Championship. However, these doubts have been removed in the first round - he has shown impressive form beating Ken Doherty 10-5. The pre-tournament 200/1 has long since disappeared but the 33/1 is still a good price - I'd make him an approx 12/1 chance.
The only player in the same quarter he should fear is Ronnie O'Sullivan, however O'Sullivan has already showed yet again temperament issues in his first game. He easily go out before the last eight - he is no certantity to go through the 1st round (5-4 up overnight).
