This match was so exciting I went and did the washing up. The standard seems to be the same on my return It’s exactly what The Jester wants and does. Allen completely handcuffed by this. It even looked like Allen fell asleep 10 mins ago! |

Allen's playing about as weird as I've ever seen him as well. He's almost been trying to out Selby, Selby. Completely chucked his own game out the window.

Hendry didn’t speak for about 35 minutes there - he probably fell asleep. Virgo had to prompt him to say something

Hendry played about 7 safety shots in his entire career. This must be absolutely killing him.

Even if Allen does manage to pull it back that would mean finishing the match at 4 in the morning at this rate.

I reckon Allen wants to impale him with his cue from where he sits Ragnarok style.

Allen may as well get out a tickling stick instead of his cue at the moment.

I gave up an hour ago, when they were just pushing that last red round aimlessly. How bad did it get?

Still going, but has improved a fair bit now that Allen’s arm has remembered how to play snooker

5 on the bounce from Allen.
You’ve all bogged off to bed by now haven’t you?

Selby is choking this away badly. Needs good points from this chance.

Even though I thought Selby was going to win, I'm now going 17-14 Luca, which I would think he totally deserves.

When Brecel is at the table it's fun, then Selby steps up and he just sucks the life out of it. Such contrasting styles.

I was about to say he's completely devoid of character off the table too but then he did that fun thing with the crowd. The cunt.

I haven't had the chance to see much of the final but in the lead up Brecel will have an amazing frame, take on crazy long pots and get them only to miss a straight forward shot at a vital moment. He's great to watch. |

I don't know how anyone can't admire what Selby does. Fucking unreal competitor.

Luca is bringing out good snooker from Selby. It's been top stuff this evening.

I don't know how anyone can't admire what Selby does. Fucking unreal competitor. I do not think that is in question...147 anyone but he is a throwback to the "Grinders" of the game, he kills a lot of pace and energy in a game. He is no doubt top class though. He is not someone who excites me, I still think he will win though. Luca really deserves it, had a great tournament and is great to watch. |

Is that really the first 147 in a Final? Wow, fair play. I haven't watched snooker in years really, but might tune in later, as it's a close game.

At the crucible yeah.
I saw Robertson do one at the UK championship final live, which was the first time at a major, but I'd taken my earpiece out so it took me ages to realise it was even on.

This has got to be having an effect on Selby.
Three frames on the bounce Brecel has jumped on a Selby mistake and won the frame, making a century break off two of them
