World Open (Inc Qualifiers)

[Fader]

The Qualifiers for this get started on Wednesday. They have a break inbetween the qualifiers and the start of the tournament and inbetween that, the English Open gets played so it's not a tournament I'm going to go too big on. Perhaps an outsider has a chance for this.

First up, I'm going to take Wenbo on the handcap. I'm quite tempted by the 11/8 on offer for the -3.5 handicap also but will stick with this one to be safe. Filipiak has lost his last couple of matches 5-1 and 6-1 without so much as a 50 to his name and Wenbo, despite his loss to Mann, performed well at the Shanghai Masters and should have too much for Kacper.

Jak Jones is a decent player and you'd have to think that he would care more about this event then Hawkins with the Open around the corner. Hawkins must be alitle tired after going pretty deep last week also so I think Jones can keep it tight atleast.

O'Connor looks a good price against an out-of-form Carrington. Quite temped by both laying Tom Ford and also tempted by Bingham on a handicap as I can see Bingham hitting abit of form over the next couple of months but I'll leave it there with these 3.

7pts L.Wenbo (-2.5 frames) to beat K.Filipiak 4/7 betfair
5pts J.Jones (+2.5 frames) to beat B.Hawkins 4/5 bet365
5pts J.O'Connor to beat S.Carrington evens bet365
