  • Hendry playing with no confidence whatsoever. he looks so uncomfortable at the table every shot

    Allen leads 4-1

    Mark allen very likely to win this match 10-3 or 10-4 now

      Indeed, looks like it's not his business anymore.

      Edit: Hendry's long pot success: 10%

      • At the moment a 10-4 scoreline to Allen looks a very good probability!

        • Hendry has only 10 % long pot succes.....Allen had 40 or so, before that red.

          • Allen looks very sharp. its knocking what little confidence Hendry has down even further

            Allen is playing that well that when he does miss hes not in position (as he would have been had he not missed) and is only leaving half chances, which Hendry isnt taking. even though he won the first frame Hendry hasnt got going at all, and if he doesnt hurry up it will be too late

            • Thing is, Allen is playing poorly. Any player in half shape would take the chances Allen is giving (missing 4-5 balls per game).

                i dont agree.

                for someone who is relatively new to the pro scene on bbctv and at the crucible playing V Hendry i think hes playing well and looks comfortable

                • It doesn't have the same impact as 10 years ago I'm afraid.

                  Hendry finally on the table and just about to clinch the 6th frame.

                  • Things can change so quick...its better from hendry and a nice break of 107. Im pleased to see it... confidence back a bit? If he can somehow win at least 2 more frames out of the last 3 played this afternoon i think he still has a good chance tommorow.

                      no need to be afraid. im happy to disagree. were all different and have our own opinions

                      Hendry scores a century to trail 2-4

                      Hawkins now trails 6-7 on the other table

                      • I agree with Semith, Allen is cueing well and has taken most of his chances with great aplomb!

                          indeed spike. hes played great for the most part, with only a couple of wobbles......this frame is the most crucial of the session IMO

                          (good call by Allen on his foul)

                          EDIT - allen takes the frame to lead 5-2 and be guaranteed to lead overnight

                          • Finally Carter wins a frame and now leads 8 frames to 6 ....

                            • Will be interesting to see what Allen's odds will be after the first session with Hendry!

                                will depend on 5-4 or 6-3, but id imagine hed be best priced 4/5, and maybe as low as 4/6....?

                                Hendry pegs back to 3-5 with another high break....theres been several in this match including both players
