Jimmy White has hit out at Mark Allen's relaxed approach to Friday's semi-final play at the World Snooker Championship.
Allen took a 5-3 overnight lead into the day's opening session before extending it to 6-3.
Mark Selby then rattled off four frames on the bounce to end the day 7-6 in front of the Antrim man.

Play resumed on Saturday morning with Selby leading 11-10.
White was critical of Allen 'laughing' with Selby before their walk-ons for Friday's afternoon session.
Watching the conversation between the semi-final rivals, White told Eurosport "They're now laughing. What is Mark Allen doing?
"I don't agree. You have the chance to be four frames in front.
"It is not a good tactic. Our of the two Mark Selby needs that chatter.
"He is a little bit, not insecure, but that would be better for Mark Selby than it would for Mark Allen."
