Mark Allen had a best break of 80 in his wildcard success

Mark Allen is through to the first round of the Masters at the Wembley Arena after a 6-4 win over Judd Trump in Monday's wildcard game.

The Antrim player lost the opening frame to the Englishman before storming into a 4-1 lead.

Trump made breaks of 96, 55 and 123 as he hit back to trail 5-4 but Allen held his nerve to compile a break of 70 and secure victory.

The reward for Allen is a meeting with Ryan Day of Wales on Tuesday night.
