Humphries reacts after brilliant sudden death win over Wattimena: 'That was the most thrilling game I've ever played in'

Luke Humphries claimed victory in one of the best games seen in some time on the Alexandra Palace stage in a sudden death thriller against Jermaine Wattimena.

Humphries reacted to victory over the frenetic Dutchman and said it was the best game he has ever played in and that he found the game to do it all when it mattered.

'Cool Hand Luke' added that a performance like that is what is needed to claim the title come New Years Day.

"That was the most thrilling game I've ever played in," said Humphries.

"I'd love to say I stayed calm and composed but I didn't feel that way up on the stage. I do think I found the right things at the right time.

"I'm over the moon to have won that match and I showed a lot of bottle - that's what you need to win titles like this.

"I love playing here. I love the feeling I get when I am playing on the Ally Pally stage and that is the best game I've ever been part of."
