Be interesting to see how Walden deals with the pressure. Neither Burnett or Milkins really got him under any, while Allen almost certainly will and can definitely deal with it himself as the semi showed.

Another note, Walden managed to front run pretty well. A lot of the time he gets edgy when in front and gets vulnerable.

I think the Final will be a close one, honestly can't see any player running away with it. Both have 2 ranking titles in China and know what it takes. I honestly won't be surprised if Walden wins the title, he has been scoring pretty heavily.

But nevertheless my bet is on Allen to win it.

Vallomas they will, both British ES and International ES will cover the Final entirely, it starts at 6 a.m on ES2 and then the second session at 11.30 a.m on ES1.

Don't think I'll wake up at 6 a.m though, maybe around 8 a.m when they should be on frame 5 or 6.

Allen put that final to bed by beating Bingo this week.

very even final though but that's not to say it wont be 10-3 either way.
