While his new coach, Peter Ebdon, watched and continued to take notes, Lisowski doubled the lead with an amazing 77 that included a great recovery shot for the sunspot.

Both players had their chances in the third frame and everything fell to the final red with Lisowski up 60-44.

The drama continued after the break as Lisowski played an inspiring snooker. However, he had some bad luck as the red went out while porting the blue and giving Allen a chance.

Surprisingly, the Northern Ireland Open champion missed another black he was normally expected to get, and Lisowski took advantage to secure the frame.

Huge drama in the eighth frame between Lisowski and Allen

With little to lose, Allen flew off the block and produced a four-ball plant to begin hitting 115, his only century of the match.

In the 10th frame, Lisowski potted another nice long red that gave him the first chance, but only put 16 points on the board.

Lisowski missed the long red by a wide margin and Allen found his rhythm and shot a 74 to take the match to the decider.

How an incredible decider played

Allen drew first blood when he hit the long red, but was out of position after the 36. A few safety shots followed before Lisowski tried and potted a tricky red in the middle.

He showed no signs of straining as he racked up points, but knew he needed the last red on the right cushion.

Lisowski shot a 57 and tried to clip with white when potting the green but missed.

It was all about the final red with a score of 57-36 in Lisowski’s favour. This was snooker at its best.

Lisowski fouled as he tried to thin the red, but did no significant damage. However, Allen left a free ball for a snooker that Lisowski missed moments later.

Allen went green and missed, but Lisowski missed red. Allen ported the red and color, but missed the yellow, which had to be cut back.

Lisowski ported the yellow, but left a grainy green. He missed it by a small margin and it gave way to Allen.

This time, after a monumental battle, Allen won by potting green, brown, blue, pink, and black to cap off the epic match.
