Wow, just wow...... what a clearance... top stuff Ronnie

[Erwan_BZH]

Holy smoke, what a clearance !!!

Can't remember last time I saw him so relaxed and smiling that much around a table!

[jono*]

A very special performance from Ronnie, his focus, safety and break building were on a different scale today

[narl]

Is Mark Allen living rough under a bridge? Always looks like a scruffy little git on tv.

[PatBlock]

Fair dues, best man won today. Shame it didn't go on a bit longer, but enjoyable all the same.

there can't be many frames were u lose after a 70 break! WOOP WOOP

[kevinpollard147]

Well done Ronnie good luck with the rest

[barrywhite]

Thought 3/1 was crazy odds for Ronnie to win the title. Hmmmmm

He's moved to 13/8 now, with Robbo 3/1 and Judd 5/1 reflecting Robbo being fave in their match. But still, the punters turning in droves towards the Rocket.

Master class.....

Well done Ronnie and what a superb clearance to win it. Good result for him and snooker as a whole

[itsnoteasy]

The stat men on here are bound to know of other frames that have been lost straight up( no snookers) when a seventy break has been made,and then countered by a clearance, there can't be many, can there?

[daffie]

That was an excellent clearance from ROS...incredible stuff. Too bad Mark is out, but well done Ronnie.

The record I believe is an 80 break by Neal Foulds which was not enough to win against Willie Thorne as Thorne won 81-80 (though not a single clearance). This was in the 1989 English Professional Championship.

In the 2009 Championship League, Hendry was leading Ebdon 79-0 and lost the frame 79-82, but neither of those came from a single break.
