I haven't ruled out playing in America. Why not? You don't want to be sat at home twiddling your fingers all day.

I played a careless positional shot from the blue and didn't get on the red properly. From then on Alan was the better player.

All week they've been fantastic, one or two little flashes, but the same as you get in the UK.

If there are no more tournaments added I could be looking at playing pool. Why not? You don't want to be sat at home twiddling your fingers all day.

It was hard for me because I've never played Mark before and I was expected to win.

I'll put a lot of hard work in, and if I play like I have this week, then who knows.

I'm surprised at how close the final was considering how badly I played.

I haven't ruled out playing in America.
