The closest match of the season saw Mr Angry win the last frame on the black to snare The Badger in a fantastic advert for the league. The first frame saw Mr Angry play great defence limiting The Badger to stray reds. The only danger from The Badger's cue was to the ceiling as he waved his cue around wildly. However he clawed his way back only for Mr Angry to stroke in a beautiful black like the smooth swing of an executioner's axe to go 1-0. The second farme was almost identical and Mr Angry had a simple black to take a 2-0 lead, he missed but The Badger thundered in his chance with a shot as sharp as his new haircut. Mr.Angry now was not amused and was muttering many things and The Badger pulled away in the next frame only for Mr Angry to calm down and fight right back. However The Badger dispatched his rival on the pink with one of his now infamous trick shots. With Mr Angry now having a mind like a cross between Higgins and O'Sullivan it seemed The Badger would take a sensational victory. But no, Mr Angry composed himself and in a fantastic flurry of shots led with The Badger needing 2 snookers on the green. Amazingly Mr Angry wobbled and The Badger got the snookers and potted the colours to the black to be on the verge of a 3-1 victory. Then a night of electric action was brought to a climax as The Badger capitulated under the pressure and missed the black completely, giving the last frame to MrAngry. The game of 2 hours 10 minutes in front of a crowd of 1 was over.
