Well, it won't be 4-0 as Robbo takes the first frame tonight. Another frame where Allen doesn't get a point.

7-3.

Robbo is such a dangerous player when he has a point to prove and he said ages ago he reads snooker forums so he will be well aware of the doubters.

So unless Allen wins the next 3 frames, he's lost this Final I think.

Even keeping him tight on the cushion isn't keeping Robbo out right now.

Robbo has struggled to save his best for finals in recent years , this is more like robbo from 2006 to 2010.

Allen in now. That poor safety at the end of the break ended up costing Robbo.

One thing for certain, Allen will never give up, I remmber him being 9-5 down against Judd at the UK Final and only lost the match 10-8, making 4 tons in that Final too.

8-3 and 9-7.

Cue on throat

lets be honest. the final is decided. robbo wont lose it

Doctor

Again, safety gave Robbo this chance, but Allen was in and messed up from a position where he could've made a big break.

8-3 barring snookers.

Interesting tweet from matt pro snooker about players having a quiet period in early season then clicking from Nov onwards.

According to CueTracker he was 8-3 and 9-5 down I watched that match live so...

This has been abit of a drab, one-sided final, it has to be said. Allen not been at the races at all today.

So did I, but I'll give precedence to Cuetracker and Wiki.

A real shame

Missed the first 15 minutes of the session and Robbo was already 7-3 in front.

Now, with 8-3 it looks even easier.

Allen needs to channel his inner selby, can't see it tho don't think he's got it in him

So it's 8-3. It's at this point that I feel obliged to point out that we could be done before the MSI...

Like Bingo did to Allen last year in Shanghai.

After two great finals we had, especially the one from last year, this one feels a bit of an anticlimax.

But Robbo just doing what he needs to do, it's Allen's fault for not taking advantage and for making silly safety mistakes that allow Robbo iin with long pots.

Whoever wins this will be the very definition of a paper champion.

Robbo's long potting has gone off a bit since midway last frame.
