Trump beat Dale 6-4. The total prize fund for the tournament is over £600,000 but only £100,000 goes to the winner. The ranking points for the UK Championship are second only to the World Championship, with the winner getting 8000 points.

Spot on, Simon. If you take off the winner's £100,000 that's £500,000 left for all the other players. The runner up gets £46,000. The semi-finalists get £23,250 each. The prize money goes down to the last 64, who get £2,300. The highest break is worth £5,000.

Some aren't happy at the UK Championship being reduced to best-of-11, especially when Barry Hearn said he wouldn't touch the World Championship, UK Championship and Masters when he first took over.
But overall, he's doing a good job. The number of tournaments is up, interest around the world is up and we now have every tournament being screened in some form.
Mark Allen has been very vocal about being unhappy with the Hearn regime, but he's such a w**ker that it's hard to take anything he says seriously.

I prefer the longer matches so I'm not happy with the change in format. On this I would agree with Mark Allen particularly as Hearn has reneged on a promise almost as quickly as NIck Clegg.

Mark Allen is a complete tit though !!! He's let himself down badly with that expletive. He might have garnered a little sympathy otherwise !!

So why is he a w****er? I see the expletive but otherwise he is fairly correct that things weren't said to change but have changed...

He often comes across as a rather nasty piece of work. Picking a fight with Stuart Bingham at the Australian Open and then making very public insulting remarks on Facebook was one of his more stupid decisions, especially as it fired Bingham up to beat him and go on to win the title. His family don't do him any favours either when they turn up for a tournament.

Trouble is Hendry had almost the same talent and used every ounce of it. Don't think anyone will beat Hendrys record until maybe Judd Trump and that's a long long way off. Higgins might end up with six possibly !!

I've not seen anything in what Allen has said that could justify Hearn taking legal action. Most of what he said is clearly his opinion and should be considered fair comment. He is also perfectly entitled to say that he has broken his promise not to tinker with the format of the two major tournaments. It is an incontestable fact.

I think Hearn's major gripe is Allen's claim that he is only in it to make money for himself.
