I think he was going for treble 17 or 15 after his first dart hit a single something  

 

Oh right, that makes a bit more sense then as I thought he threw down there while sitting on 74 .

Hitting treble 2 when you're at 74 for the match 

 

Hmm, I wasn't watching so I need you to help me out with this one. What on earth was he trying to hit? I mean there is no even number down that part of the board that would leave you on an out shot. Am I going crazy?

I used to like Adams years ago when he was beaten year after year so I wanted to see him do well. But then he started winning the titles when the quality of BDO started to become a joke so then I always begrudged him winning .

How far can Labanauskas go in this tournament?

 

Scott Mitchell will be favourite to advance against him in the first round, but this is the BDO version so anything could happen and no one is unbeatable

They're not saying it's only about the trophy  

 

I listened to the interview with Barry Hearn and I was sure he just said it is the name of the trophy that is changing

Does it really matter what the trophy is called?

Whitlock in the Premier League...I guess he can thank his nationality.

 

 

Would love to have seen vden Berg in the line-up.... and I would slot him in instead of Price

167 checkout for Cross to take a 2-0 lead in sets

Definitely Singapore and the USA, I'm doubting about the first one. My guess would be England because I heard him say today his journey started in London, but I can't recall him playing for England (I do recall him playing for Singapore and the USA, so I have no doubts about those)  

 

 

 

You guessed the same as me and using the same logic

But no, actually it was USA, Singapore and Papua New Guinea!

Agreed, too bad he's spending 99% of his time being a softtip/electronic darts player instead of steel tip  

 

Fun bit of trivia, can you name the 3 nations he has represented?

Lim is such a nice guy. Now in the interview after the match "I should have worn my high heels, then I would have made the nine dart finish"  

 

The interview mostly consisted of "this has been such an honour" and "I am happy/this has been so much fun", I hope we'll keep seeing him for many years to come

 

 

Great guy, loved the high heels comment

 

I would love to see him play on the circuit more often, crazy to think how good he performed here with little preparation.

[OlympicIRL 4,859]

Paul Lim, a total legend 

Anderson and Lim a pair of legends in fact, probably my two favourite players

 

[OlympicIRL 4,859]

These are crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy nights!

 

[OlympicIRL 4,859]

Paul Lim!!!!   

 

Meets Gary Anderson in Round 2. Such a cool match up

World championships start tonight, everyone ready?  

 

Christmas = PDC World Championships. I can't miss it

Dmitri van den Bergh is quickly becoming a favourite of mine. Great match yesterday with Bunting who himself threw in a 170 finish and a 144 for good measure. Can't wait for the evening session tonight, Klaasen v Dekker is one heck of a first round match. And Dolan in the prelims

Slovakia - Cyprus 6-40  @OlympicIRL

 

 

Well we said this match would be another step up in level for Slovakia but the experience is now in the bag and next time hopefully you can put this experience into practice .

Has anyone seen Berry van Peer play? That is one hell of a case of darteritus 

 

Yes saw him play Anderson yesterday..... the crowd didn't help the situation either, kind of heckling him about it until the announcer told them to behave and Anderson also made that clear to them too. Anderson was encouraging him throughout which was a really nice touch. I felt a bit emotional just watching him too, especially when the crowd were making things worse, really sad for him

yeah, they are there mainly to learn, any eventual tie/win will be surely considered as a success, it´s still the early beginning for this sport in Slovakia. But still nice to see we are competing in new sports. That´s really fine. So may the force be with them then in their next game

 

Exactly, and by playing teams like Cyprus more regularly it can surely be only a good thing. The games against Austria and Serbia should be closer affairs and will be the ones to determine who will survive. Conference II North is the easier division but better playing in the harder division and gaining better experience is better in the long term

I guess, they found the mistake during past week when we played our first ever Division II match against --- Slovenia https://sport.aktuality.sk/c/304179/rugby-slovensko-nestacilo-v-konferencii-2-juh-na-slovincov/

 

Yes I followed the results of that match, good performance really as Slovenia would be one of the stronger teams in that conference (north and south). The match against Cyprus will be another lesson level though as they will be favourites to claim the southern title. But good progress from Slovakia in a short period and first goal is to avoid the drop

[OlympicIRL 4,859]

Hmm, I was reading about member associates of World Rugby and in their official handbook, seems like they had a little trouble with the identity of one nation.... @hckosice

Of course, we have does here.  Very fun and good at the throwing (for an amateur), not very good at the calculating the points.  

 

Haha, I understand .
