Re: PDC World Darts thread

I’ve been watching darts for around forty years and that’s the first 9-darter I’ve ever managed to see live. Brilliant stuff. Great game, this.

Much prefer it when Price just lets his darts do the talking, rather than when he feels he needs to get into his opponent's face.

He’s got a lot better in that respect during the last couple of years. He seems to have plenty of respect for Smith, but then the latter is impossible to dislike.

Brilliant match. Think Smith just about edged it but everytime he looked like he'd get ahead, Price hauled him back in.

Pity about a few pricks in the crowd.

I hope Smith wins the tournament now. I love the pace that he plays at and his scoring rate.

Please not Wade or Anderson.

Re: PDC World Darts thread

Great game although the strange thing is I didn't think Gerwyn played that well tonight, certainly nowhere near as well as his last round.

I do like Michael Smith I have to say.
Great to watch. Plays at a high tempo and seems a genuinely nice guy.

Really hope Smith wins it from here.

Great stuff.
I hope Smith wins the tournament, and playing like he is I can't see anyone getting near him.

I think it would be funny if a Scot won after the constant singing of "Scotland get battered" throughout the tournament

£50,000 if you hit two nine darters!

Agreed. He should have won a major by now. He looks like he's on a mission. If he can get to the final (I can't see Wade doing much against him), a good start will see him home. Wright the only likely danger for me.

Can't see Wade living with Smith, even if he isn't at his best.

Hope Wright beats Anderson as I wouldn't mind Wright beating Smith in the final.

Re: PDC World Darts thread

Smith 6/4
Wright 13/8
Anderson 4/1
Wade 7/1

Interesting. I don't think Smith will get any harder matches than the last two he's played, so it's probably right.

Re: PDC World Darts thread

As good as Smith has been he gives up opportunities. Clayton went 2-0 up, O'Connor missed 2 darts at 40 to go 2-0 up in Round 3 and Price had match darts. Either Smith will get punished at some point or his name's on the trophy

Or there's some tomfoolery going to help the betting markets

Re: PDC World Darts thread

Smith is consistent plods along and hits the doubles and takes out over 100's as well. It is him or Clayton for me. Knew that Price could not take it tonight. Smith just seems in the zone and plays his game, like he is in the practice room, same as Clayton. Smith V Wright final please.

Re: PDC World Darts thread

Wright and Anderson are the better option from a punting aspect.
Smith could get very nervous if he makes the final, where as the other 2 have been there and done it.
