    The standard in that tournament is dreadful.

    Oh but it was, Taylor won pretty comfortably and from a betting perspective, for bookies to offer Taylor at evens was incredible, as was the 180's bet, considering hitting maximums is never a big thing for Taylor and he likes the cover shot on the 19's.

    Van Gerwen didn't play well though and didn't show his usual emotion, the occasion seemed to get the better off him.

    BDO darts is OK, but as other have said, the money is in the PDC and SKY's influence will mean the best players in the BDO will simply defect to the PDC.

    It's a bit like a premier league team coming in and buying out the best players from the championship.

    SKY's polish on the PDC makes the difference as well. Theme tunes, multi-stats, good presenters and scantily clad women with massive * can brighten up most sports. :50:

    This match is fantastic. 2 great players.

    De Graaf hit a 180 and then a 177 to leave himself on a 9 darter. I was shocked by the massive lack of excitement in the crowd. Not so much as a big cheer. There were a few claps alright but it really surprised me. He missed the next dart right enough.

    This is turning into a great match between Bunting and Fitton 1-1 sets

    The final tonight Ladies and Gents..
    Who do you think will win it?? For some reason i think O'Shea will finally win it.
    From the 1/4 finals on it has been a very good tournament, and hopefully a classic match to finish it off..

    I told my oul lad to back O'Shea for me at 16/1 at the start of the tournament and he couldn't put it on at the time. I am sickened :56:

    I think it will be a very close final, reckon O'Shea will scrape it.

    Bet365 offering evens on less than 19.5 180s.

    You'll need to print money considering you backed O'Shea who is being systematically destroyed :bbpd:

    Awful quality of darts here. Would like O'Shea to get a few sets here but can't see it happening.
