Very sad: A skilled snooker player named Commander made a terrifying comment about…

Preview of the German Masters Snooker Two players to start each quarter

I’ll admit that the last incident made me feel a little down. It was heartbreaking to lose the World Grand Prix final against Judd Trump after having a commanding lead through the first several rounds. In the end, the Goat was simply too excellent.

For the rest in the group and for those of us eager to take on short odds, however, hope springs eternal. The German Masters field, which gets underway in Berlin this morning, does not include Ronnie O’Sullivan. As usual, Betfair Live Video will allow you to watch the action in real time.

All things considered, this is the event I’d most like to go to if I haven’t already, so I can enjoy the special experience of the Tempodrom.

Carter has been playing well lately, but even at 20/1, he’s not a guy I’d consider, and even if he has the top seed, he’s still worth playing in the top quarter. Mark Williams and Shaun Murphy, the other two big guns, are also preferred.

Murphy is the winner. He treats a smaller tournament with respect because he takes his duty as WPBSA leader seriously. He is usually a better player in the second part of the season and has made the semifinals four times here, including once as runner-up.

Shaun showed signs of improvement in the Masters and the World Grand Prix, but he was unexpectedly destroyed by Cao Yupeng. I anticipate that he will handle less

Pang Junxu is my second choice in this segment. The 23-year-old is still someone to watch as he has already defeated the majority of the best players. He advanced to the Welsh semifinals and the WST final around this time last year.

Face up against Trump in a challenging segment
The draw is quite unequal, which is another reason I’m eager to go for outsiders here. Consider the following second portion. Trump, Mark Allen, John Higgins (who receives a bye in the first round), Zhang Anda, who is now incredibly talented, and long-overdue first-time champion Zhou Yuelong are among the competitors.

Considering that individuals such as Trump and Allen do not view this incident as a primary concern, I’m content to direct my attention elsewhere. Anda is a player whose price would have been unthinkable in past seasons, but we have to believe that this is more than just a hot run because he continues to reach the latter stages. He should at least make it to the last 16.

While keeping an eye on the stakes in this area, consider placing a small wager at 200/1 on Joe O’Connor. He is still a great match player and one of the finest prospects outside the top-16. He overcame a difficult draw to achieve his career high of making it to the Scottish Open final in 2022. We cannot rule out the chance that he does so once again.

Selby is worth opposing once more.
It appears that the draw’s lower half is significantly weaker. Although Mark Selby is the favorite, he hasn’t advanced past the round of sixteen since taking home the trophy in 2015. In a smaller tournament with single digit odds, he will never file an appeal. Still, his road is less complicated than normal.

Choosing from the remaining players in this section is difficult, but I’ll go with a few of reliable match players. Thanks to his victory at the Shootout last year and his run to the Northern Ireland final this season, Chris Wakelin has advanced significantly and is gradually moving up the rankings.

175/1 relative to Jordan Brown appears far too large. The Northern Irishman is in good form this season, having advanced to the International Championship semifinals. He has won ranking events, most notably defeating O’Sullivan in the Welsh Open. There was David Gilbert, whom he currently leads 4-0 in their head-to-head and meets first up today, among an astonishing string of scalps.

For the bottom quarter, my shortlist was everything but. Two formidable opponents are gleefully at odds. Before I even consider Neil Robertson and Luca Brecel, I want to see proof that they are performing at least 75% of their potential. Although Barry Hawkins is a clear favorite, there is also a rare winner with less appeal.

Finally, give Fan Zhengyi a try among a few outsiders making comparable claims. After defeating O’Sullivan in the European Masters final two years prior, Fan pulled off the biggest upset in snooker history. That week, he pulled off five straight huge upsets against the odds, and despite his inconsistency, he has demonstrated a lot on other occasions—he made it to the quarterfinals twice this season, for instance. He’s more than capable of winning this draw.
