A bit like when he won the world championship a few years back, Stuart Bingham becomes the oldest Masters winner after defeating Ali Carter 10-8 in a gripping encounter.
You can read the full report on that from my colleague Shamoon Hafez here.
I'm done for the evening, but thanks for sticking with me. Brilliant wasn't it?
I'll see you all soon.

Ben: Brilliant performance from Stuart Bingham to win this year’s Masters. Fair play to Ali Carter for getting to the final.
Ross: Stuart Bingham...one of the nicest guys in the game!
Once watched me try and play the game and then bought us a pint afterwards. Chuffed to bits for him.

Ali Carter didn't expect too much of himself coming here but I think he can take great heart from how he has played and use it as a springboard.

An emotional Stuart Bingham on BBC Two says:
"This is unbelievable. Ali [Carter] started so well I was starting to think about what to say after being beaten. How I turned it around I don't know. I can't explain how I feel.
"I have won seven major tournaments now and I want to get to 10. Hopefully one will be the UK Championship and I will go into the history books for winning the Triple Crown.
"I've really enjoyed the week and I think that's the key to my game and why I can perform like that.
"I am shattered. I've had about nine hours sleep in two days. Every time he was scoring I was sitting in my chair thinking this is getting really comfy. To get my hands on this means the world."

Stuart Bingham played himself into form in this tournament and withstood a lot of things thrown at him.
Under pressure he held his nerve and his cueing stood the test.

People will stop saying Bingham was a fluke to win the World Championship. He's backed it up and proven he's top class.

Stuart Bingham wins first Masters title
BBCCopyright: BBC
Stuart Bingham says "he's shattered" while speaking on BBC Two.
Apparently he's had nine hours sleep in the last couple of days. So does that mean no partying this evening?
With a winners cheque of £250,000 on it's way, not sure how realistic that is.
'I have to say all the right things but I am gutted'
Stuart Bingham wins first Masters title
Masters runner-up Ali Carter speaking on BBC Two: "I've turned up and one better than I expected to be honest. Very disappointed to not win but he was the better player. I have to say all the right things but I am gutted.
"The interval swung the match. I was on fire to win those four frames. I look back at the pink but I've missed one ball in four frames."

Frame 18: Bingham 9-8 Carter
Ridiculous shot from Stuart Bingham, who smashes a tricky red into the heart of the right middle.
Now for the black, he's up to 60. He's homing in on his first Masters title.

What. A. Shot.
Stuart Bingham powers a tremendous pot on a red into the bottom left bin. He's turned this frame on its head in a couple of shots.
Can he hold his nerve and win the match at this visit?

Frame 18: Bingham 9-8 Carter
Ali Carter has the first nibble and knocks in a glorious long red.
He can't get position though so lays a snooker behind the yellow.
Superb stuff from Stuart Bingham, to escape. Brilliant all round.

Snooker. Such a dull sport.
This is utterly compelling. Watching Stuart Bingham and Ali Carter asses each shot is enthralling now.

Stephen: Hendry is to snooker what McEnroe is to tennis. Superb pundit.
Rhys: This is some Masters final. Both players are playing some quality shots.
Jay: Granted, it's not been a great tournament but this is some final. One visit stuff practically all the way tonight, both have stepped up to the occasion.

One of these players will have a sleepless night! This afternoon's session was tense but they have put on a show tonight. It's been great snooker.

John Parrott

Not a bad match is it! Carter is on the ropes and then produces a break like that. It really concentrates the mind knowing it's your last-chance saloon and can't afford to miss. That was a brilliant frame of snooker.

Frame 17: Bingham 9-8 Carter
Ali [Carter] has the Ally Pally on it's feet. A brilliant break of 77 to reduce his arrears.
Is this going to end up in a deciding frame. We haven't had one for a decade.
Post update
Frame 17: Bingham 9-7 Carter
Perfect response from Ali Carter. He's barely been out out of his seat for four frames but he's racing away with his one.
