How's he ever going to be damaging to the premier league?? He was always good for darts, for a few years he was the man that everyone wanted to beat Taylor (outside of BarneyOriginally posted by Flushdraw View Post
, he is after lacking a fair bit in the last 2/3 years and what Kev said would make a lot of sense. He never real showed too much interest this year.

Can't see past Deta Hedman this year. In the easiest half of the draw by far and 11 titles this year, so 9/4 is a far better bet than Dobromsloyva @ 5/2Originally posted by ArmaniJeans View Post

No thats the point, what Mardel was saying way right. Even though MVG went 2-0 up the markets didn't react.Originally posted by TheImprover View Post
Agree Mardel talks a lot of rubbish, its a tough sport to commentate on though.Comment

You sure? While I was pricking about trying to get a link that worked I missed the first set and a bit of the second. Was following what was happening on PP live betting and think I remember seeing MVG shortening to 1/6. Think he started at 2/9..? Was possibly a bit into the third set though when that happenedOriginally posted by BallymoreChris View PostComment

Just looking at the draw, seriously lobsided alright with Gulliver, Dobro and Lisa Ashton all on one side.Originally posted by Flushdraw View Post
In the mans draw loving the way they shoehorned Kist and more importantly Wolfie into the qualifying round.
"Recent world champions not in Top 24 of Invitational ranking". Its like something from The Simpsons.

That's not what he meant, although it did sound a bit confusing. I'm not sure exactly what he said but what he was trying to say was that Wright was the same price at the time [7/2], when 2 sets down at 6-4 as he was before the start of the contest. Pretty sure the markets did react to MVG winning the first 2 setsOriginally posted by TheImprover View PostComment

Both got tough first round games if they get through. Wilson will bear Kist, and Adams got stung with Tony O Shea who he beat in the final 2 years ago, and who lost to Waites in the final last yearComment

Think the confusing part is that you said when MVG went 2-0 up. The markets did change when he went 2-0. Wright drifted big time from 7/2. Think you meant to say when he went 2 sets up (i.e 6-4)Originally posted by BallymoreChris View PostComment

Harms to beat Bunting in 1 semi, and Wilson to beat Dekker in the other semi imoComment

Never seen anyone run as bad in my life as Jennings. 4 treble 20s on the floor in 5 legs. I can't understand how 3 of them came out either!Comment

Waites defeat (and Harms 1st round win) having a big effect on the odds already. I've backed Harms 14/1, Wilson 12/1, Adams 22/1, Dekker 50/1, Kist 25/1 and Geroge 125/1 and they are now 8/1, 8/1, 14/1, 33/1, 20/1, 80/1. Glad i got on early with my lucky bag
I actually though Alan Norris was someone else. Somehow thought he was Phil Nixon who came back from 6-0 down to 6-6 before losing 7-6 in the final to Adams.
I'm tilted already with the scoreboard for the darts. Taking off the score as they throw a dart is ridiculous. Just leave the score alone to all 3 darts have been thrown and the ref calls the score.Comment

Have the darts on in the background and the lol wimmins. God i miss those 33 dart legs
In one leg, with 3 darts in hand she needs 124 so hits T20. What does she do with 64 left?? Yep, T20 to leave D2 and can't finish the job in 27 darts and her opponent takes forever to check out 118 and move 1 leg from the match

W.Harmsmain bet for me at 14/1, been knocking on the door for the last couple of years...Originally posted by Flushdraw View Post
Thank god I got on pre-tourny. My other 2 interests Kist and Dekker have shortened from 25-16 & 50-22 without throwing a dart... Didn't get a chance to back them yesday, wasn't really worried about there odds changing because they weren't playing untill today...

Dekker is fucking woeful and hasn't a prayer.Originally posted by ArmaniJeansComment
-
He won 3-0 this afternoon, dropping 2 legs i think, but he played woeful. Averaged something like 83 and even that flattered him because he disguised some shocking scores with a couple of 180s and higher scores, but overall his range was off and he wasn't even close to trebles at times. He only got away with it, because they guy he was playing just froze and played a terrible terrible game. Atkins and Harms avergaed 83 aswel, so if Dekker can up his game a bit, he should be at least able to get through the next round before the hard work starts. The highlight of the day was Fitton blowing it once again. Man, i hate that guy. Delighted!Originally posted by Starvin Marvin View PostComment

The standard looking worse than ever this year.
O'Shea averaging 71 after 5 legs.

I didn't think Bunting would be as short as 4/7 with PP to win 3-0 here? I think this is massive value tbh. Widmayer averaged something like 72 in his prelim win and Bunting should wipe the floor with him. He's the form man and the big favourite and is 1/25 with Skybet for the match
Also looking at Adams v Montgomery in the 2nd round. I backed Adams @ 22/1 because he was good value at that price. He's in to 7/1 3rd favourite now but i don't think he's 2/5 to beat Monty. He might lose, but i wasn't expecting him to be 11/5Comment
-
omfg. I said i wouldn't bet on these games, but thought that was too good value to turn down. Fuck you Peter Griffin, just fuck youComment

C.Kist @ 7/4 tonight v J.Wilson looks attractive. Far from impressive in the prem. round i know, but with a game under his belt and with his experience he definitely justifies a punt at them odds imo...."the impossible is often untried"Comment

This bollocks of splitting 10 and 18 and the likes with 2 double 4 or double 8 is tilting me something awful. It just doesn't happen in the PDCComment

Don't mind his 2nd effort when the guy isn't on a finish, but splitting the 10 with your man on a 1 dart checkout is tilting. The whole BDO setup is just a jokeOriginally posted by Walter Mitty View Post
