    Thought judd was a bit casual playing that safety, lot of pace on cue ball. Robbo gonna make him pay I'd bet.

    Can’t believe how much Robertson has missed that red to the middle by, frame ball.

    Trump favourite now.

    Well, didn't see that coming. Shot on yellow was crazy i thought but pot in green was outstanding.

    Trump levels it. It's gonna be a nervy end to the final, whichever way it goes.

    What a missed opportunity there for Robbo with an 8-6 lead looking a formality. Credit to Judd though who is showing all the batitling qualities that all the games greats had in abundance. Could be a massive turning point. We're down to a best of three.

    Rerack num two. After about 30 minute safety battle. It's all happening here tonight.

    Good idea to have a re-rack although I think it could have happened about 5 minutes before that.

    Great pot by Robbo just as I was thinking it was getting very cagey

    Cagey stuff here. This type of finish might suit Trump a bit more I'm not sure...

    Robbo showing some frailty now. Maybe that last frame knocked the stuffing out of him. He cut rightacross that cue ball. His piston like cue action deserted him.

    Squeaky bum time for Judd.
    Robbo in a better position now than 3 or 4 shots ago.

    That's what the top boys do, Judd won't die 'not knowing'.
    Great pot on the red.

    Rivetting stuff this. Great Sunday night entertainment.
    Comms not going over the top or getting too excited. If Joe was
    there he'd be raving about nerve and bottle.

    Foulds and Hendon are the best combo imo.

    A fitting finale to a good week's snooker.

    Loses 4 in a row, knocks in a 125, 8-8.

    Some brave shots in that break too.

    Great reply from Robertson, he was on the ropes there. This one was always going down to the wire.

    Here we go...

    Like 2 heavyweights going toe to toe.
    Not much rope-a-dope here. Quality.

    And with that, Robertson may have played his last shot on the break off

    Trump looks good here. He'll have to go into the pack in another couple of shots, but he's cueing wonderfully.

    Robbo will feel sick the way this turned out. That missed red to the middle will be hard to forget.

    Great final, either player could have easily won it. I like Robertson but I'm a big fan of Trump so glad to see him take it.

    No crowd in Snooker is somehow worse than football, really annoying me there, sucked a lot of the enjoyment out of it.
