The Humphries game was outstanding, high scoring and played at great pace. The German dude would have beaten almost everyone with his display but just never got close.

Aye, it's going to be some tournament, doubt I'll see much of today's play unfortunately, although I see the session times have been altered (1200 & 1630) to avoid clashing with the football. End of the first session clashes with the tennis final now.

I've not been following the darts much recently so does anyone know whey Anderson is odds on favourite against Smith? I know Smith got gubbed by Menzies the other week but I assumed that was a one-off in a minor tournament.

Quite shocked to see Gary odds on myself !

He's a had a brilliant season and playing well the last year or so but all the same you would still have to go for Smith

Bookies were wrong...10-5 Smith. Strange one.

Anderson had the highest average and most 180s on the tour, I would've still fancied Smith for the win, particularly at those odds.

Wade odds on to beat Aspinall tonight , Not a chance ! Aken he destroyed Noppert but the Asp is defending champion and a top player

I'd be a bit wary of getting involved, Aspinall is carrying an injury.

Some display of scoring from Ross Smith v Price, if he had checked out to his normal standard he would've had some average.

Yeah can't see past Luke to be fair , No sure what side of the draw every player is in . Potentially Luke v Van gerwen in the final ?


Cross v Michael smith will be decent but on current form Cross wins , Ross Smith is a very VERY heavy 180 hitter so will be good to see Wade making his usual silly faces when the camera pans in on him :greengrin

I quite enjoyed Smith roaring back at Price during their game earlier in the week.

Rob Cross was rank rotten , don't thin he'll have played that bad for a long time . Two good looking semi finals , pretty hard to call which way they'll go

Aye, he had lost the game in the first 2 sessions, Going to miss the semis as going to be down in Eyemouth for The Herring Queen Festival, doesn't look like they are being repeated tomorrow. Might catch the first one but, will be on the train for most of the 2nd game.

Humphries 18 MvG 15, one of the best games ever, brilliant entertainment, funny how things can change I backed Humphries to win by more than 6.5 legs last night and more than 3.5 legs tonight, that MvG 160 was a killer, what a game though.

Anderson scrapes past Smith in round 1 of the Grand Prix. A good game, but he got off the hook with Smith missing 2 at tops for the win.

De Decker next for Ando.
