Two out of two for Steve Allen on the midweek over-55 tour

TOTTON Recreation Club stalwart Steve Allen made it two wins out of two on the Cuestars Masters midweek tour.

Allen, who won the first event in Salisbury last month, pocketed £65 for his day’s work in the over-55’s competition at Chandlers Ford Snooker Club.

He topped the round-robin group by one-frame and beat Stephen Hills in the final to collect £40 prize money.

And his run of 52 against Trevor Hambly (Marchwood) earned him the £25 high-break prize donated by snookerhub.co.uk, a website dedicated to the amateur game.

Hills (Northfleet) had actually beaten Allen 2-1 in the round robin.

Cuestars is hoping to make the Masters a full tour next season.
