FANTASY SNOOKER: Points Update and Shanghai Masters info

This week in the fantasy snooker league it is time to get picking for the Shanghai Masters with plenty more points up for grabs.

A number of participants were on board with eventual champion Mark Selby and runner-up Mark Allen in the International Championships. There were also a lot of season points handed out with popular pick Yan Bingtao making the semi-finals in Daqing.

The upcoming Shanghai Masters sees a number of top players missing as they lost in the last 128 qualifiers, while others will be coming off of a hectic schedule after the Champion of Champions so it may be a good time to take a punt on more of an outsider for the week. On top of that don't forget the Captains picks, where you can select one of your two picks in an event to earn double points. You have three of these that can be deployed during a season, but they cannot be used in the three Triple Crown (Double points) events.

A few players have already used up their three allocated picks on a given player for the season, so do not forget that you can only pick the same player a maximum of three times throughout the season.
