PDC World Darts Championship 2011

[Strong Play]

im loading up on anderson to win 7-2/7-3...

7-3 is what I've taken; he's just been too good in these championships.

fwiw, the BDO World Championships are now underway, but without local TV coverage (at least for now), betting on it lacks interest from my perspective.

Also makes sense...

Twenty five year old Adrian Lewis won his first major championship this morning, capturing the PDO World Title by defeating Scotland's Gary Anderson 7-5. Anderson failed to capture the form he had right throughout the championships (for the only match, his 3 dart average was less than 100), whilst Lewis threw up to his best; including capturing the rare achieveement of a 9 dart leg. For his efforts, he collects 200,000 pounds.

yeh pretty sick

that opening set was unfuckingbelievable...

[Choppa]

The first set was absolute quality for sure; the crowd roar when the 9 darter was nailed was huuuuge...

fwiw, the BDO World Darts Championship is being broadcast on Eurosport.

Two of the semi finalists have been decided, and that 1st semi final will be Martin Adams (BDO World No 1) vs Martin Phillips.

Other two quarter finals being played:
Jan Dekker vs Garry Thompson
Dean Winstanley vs Stephen Bunting

To highlight the difference in class, not one match to date has seen a player break a 3-dart average of 100 (best is a 94.62 from Bunting).

The 2011 Premier League line-up has been finalised, and the market is as follows:
Phil Taylor $2.75
Gary Anderson $6.00
Simon Whitlock $7.00
James Wade $7.00
Adrian Lewis $7.00
Raymond van Barneveld $13.00
Mark Webster $13.00
Terry Jenkins $21.00

Season starts on February 10, and expect it to be covered live on Fox Sports.
