Re: PDC World Darts Championships
Cant beat a bit of darts on telly to get you through the endless repeats on telly at this time of year. Be interesting to see how that russian bird gets on MT jnr |
||||||
| Darren |
Indeed.....2/1 looks an interesting price for her match.
However, I am a bit skint at the moment, so will see how I feel before she plays. First night's bet will probably be Andy Jenkins at odds against, though not sure whether to double up with Wayne Jones at around 2's. |

Taylor's lost a lot of weight; wouldn't want to be lumping on in that case. | ||||||
| Flipando |
Who was it (apart from Fordham) who lost a load of weight and became toss? I know that big John Part put on a bit of weight and lost a lot of form. |
||||||
| Machiavellian |
Last time the power lost loads of weight he went to shit then put it back on and was back to his best. |

Haven't seen very much of this yet but did manage to catch Barney's match last night while the snooker mid session interval was on. He looked in awesome form! He's gonna take some stopping if he plays like that all the time! What price is he anybody? | ||||||
| Flipando |
Anyone catch the Thornton-Mardle match? I just watched it this morning on repeat, what a cracking game! | ||||||
| Jimbob |
It was a corker! The crowd were disgraceful though! The PDC really do need to stamp that out! | ||||||
| Flipando |
I agree, it was pretty despicable behaviour. Still, it doesn't detract from the fact that the match was an absolute stonker.
James Wade to Win!! |
||||||
| Machiavellian |
Have you waded in at the price? |
||||||
| Flipando |
If tonights results are:
Klaasen 4-1 Barney 4-0 Walsh 4-3 I would have been fairly rich. But I was 30 seconds late to put my bet on. |
||||||
| Flipando |
Small bet for interest on Klaasen to do Hamilton 4-1 tonight. The competition is starting to hot up now, Taylor and Barney have been looking good, no-one else has been as consistently good as them. | ||||||

I remember backing Painter last year at about 170/1 and was gutted when he was beaten in the semi's. I havent had a bet this year but thought Painter might of caused an upset when he went 1-0 up against Taylor last night. Taylor looks good to me and will be very hard to beat, but I guess thats normally the case so nothing new there 
|
||||||
| Flipando |
I thank you. | ||||||
| Jimbob |
Good work Flipando! What odds did you get? | ||||||
| Flipando |
13/2. In hindsight probably not that great a price really.
Wadey still isn't looking like he's gonna do the business but all you have to do to win the tournament is beat what's put infront of you. Come on laddddddddddddddddd!! |
||||||
| Machiavellian |
Let's get down to the big issue.
The blonde or the brunette? I'm in the brunette camp. |
||||||
| millsy |
Think the blonde's the pick meself! | ||||||
| millsy |
Had a punt on Taylor to win 5-1, looks like Stompe's going to do well to win legs let alone sets the way old Phil's started off! | ||||||
| Machiavellian |
Dutched on 5-0 and 5-1, now layed off 5-1. Will trade 5-0 in a bit. |
||||||
| millsy |
Don't think there's much risk - this has been a masterclass | ||||||
| Machiavellian |
Didn't bother in the end, master class. |
||||||
| millsy |
Had thought about backing Barney for the title but after that there is no way I can bet against Taylor - if he plays like that nobody will get anywhere near | ||||||
| Flipando |
He's an annoying bar steward Phil Taylor. Just too good. Does my head in. | ||||||
| theGoingStick |
Phil Taylor was good but you have to say Co Stompe fell to pieces, it seemed to me he got about one treble in the last 3 sets 
|
||||||
| Machiavellian |
Why oh why would that do your head in? |
||||||
| Flipando |
A. I've bet on someone else B. It annoys me how he is so much better than everyone else, no-one is good enough to give him a good game. C. I want to be that good D. I've never liked him anyway. E. I don't have an E yet but I'll think about it. |
||||||
| BRETT |
E. Its ridiculous that a fat bloke can make so much money from a pub game. 
|
||||||
| Flipando |
Barney 5-2 and Wade 5-1 double tonight. Had a couple of nuggets going spare so whacked em on! | ||||||
| Sky_Of_Darkness |
What time do the games normally start please? | ||||||
| Flipando |
7-7.30. Programme starts at 7. | ||||||
| Sky_Of_Darkness |
Thanks - watching on Dutch TV, so wasn't sure. |

9 darter from Barney 
|
||||||
| MT VESSELS |
I didnt think it could get any better than Taylors performance last night, but Barney tonight was just an absolute joy to watch.
9 Darter, 180's galore, 1 dart finishes and a 161 to finish. One word for it. Magic darts. MT jnr |
||||||
| theGoingStick |
It looks like a Barney vs Taylor final and it'll be a corker. | ||||||
| theGoingStick |
This commentator needs a check up from the neck up

Made a point of watching Klassen vs Barney last night, had a feeling there could be a few fireworks, best game of darts I've seen since Barney vs Taylor a few years ago, magic stuff. Taylor vs Barney could be another absolute belter! | ||||||
| Flipando |
Barney's a **** as well. | ||||||
| Machiavellian |
More big checkouts than Tescos. |
||||||
| Flipando |
Tesco are ****s as well. | ||||||
| Machiavellian |
Shout |
||||||
| Flipando |
TESCO ARE ****S TOO! |
||||||
| Machiavellian |
Good lad |
||||||
| theGoingStick |
It'll be a good final tomorrow, can't wait. | ||||||
| millsy |
Hopefully Barney can find another gear on last night's performance and make a real game of it - repeat of their final of a couple of years back would be good!! But can't see anything other than Taylor winning, he's been a cut above all week - I reckon 7-3 / 7-4 Taylor. | ||||||
| Jimbob |
I have to go out tonight  but will be recording the final! Hope it's a belter
|
||||||
| Darren |
Had a decent sized bet on Taylor -2.5 for tonight at 5/6.
Barney looked spent last night, and Taylor is hungrier for this one than he has been in ages. 7-4 doesn't look that far off what I expect, to be honest. |
||||||
| theGoingStick |
If I were to have a bet on the final I'd go for Barney just purely because I think they're pretty evenly matched on what I've seen so far. But I'll keep my money in my pocket on this one. | ||||||
| millsy |
Good shout, looks like this is one game too far for Barney. Didn't have a bet in the end and good job as I don't think Barney's going to get beyond the 1 set here... nobody can live with Taylor playing like this - 109 average is just unbelievable! |
||||||
| Flipando |
They're both ****s and I hope they both lose. | ||||||
| theGoingStick |
Barneys been well out classed here. Disappointing final. | ||||||
| Darren |
That'll do me....almost double your money in less than two hours
|
||||||
| kickingkyle |
Thats a spanking! | ||||||
| MT VESSELS |
Taylor was awesome.
Barney was lucky with a 7 - 1 spanking. Disappointing final because taylor was that good and didnt give Barney a chance and by the time he did have a chance he had forgotten how to take them. Dart bullying at its best, kicked him big style whilst be was down, no mercy. MT jnr |
||||||
| Jimbob |
Barney was slightly unlucky to run into Taylor on top form. If you have a three figure average in a game you don't expect to lose 7-1. Just shows the awesome dominnce of Taylor really. | ||||||
