German Masters (plus quallies)

[Fader]

This started with the Qualifiers this morning but nothing took my eye in the morning matches. I may have a few for the 2.30pm matches and most likely I'll have 1 or 2 for the 7pm matches.

The only bet I like the look of this afternoon is Donaldson to beat Honghao with a -1.5 handicap. First to 4, you'd expect Donaldson to take control of that match. He is playing some nice stuff recently and is the only person to have pushed Mark Allen as he went on to beat Ronnie, Trump & Robertson. Donaldson should have beaten Allen 4-2 in his previous match and so you'd have to favour him for this.

In the later matches, i'll take a couple of outsiders. Vafaei has been playing some nice stuff again and I never feel comfortable betting on Barry Hawkins. Ian Burns has looked pretty poor to me as of late and I'll take Lilley to cause an upset there.

2.30pm:
5pts S.Donaldson (-1.5 frames) to beat L.Honghao 4/5 paddypower

7pm :
4pts H.Vafaei to beat B.Hawkins 7/4 bet365
4pts D.Lilley to beat I.Burns 6/4 bet365
