Re: RE: Re: 2018 PDC World Matchplay- Blackpool- 21st-29th July 2018
Worlds Matchplay GSOD Grand Prix UK Open That’s the big 5 in that order IMO. All other TV ranking events come under them as minor majors and then you have non ranking majors below them. Triple crown is utter nonsense IMO. It should be the big 5 as listed above so only Taylor and MvG done it thus fa...

Re: Taylor talks about what it would take for him return to the pdc world championship
Hopefully Barry can change the rules for qualification for the 2019 tournament and allow former champions into the event - with the 16-time champion Phil Taylor being right at the top of that qualification list of course. Would allow John Part & Dennis Priestley, two gents of the game, another ...

Re: 2018 PDC World Matchplay- Blackpool- 21st-29th July 2018
For me there are 8 Majors in the PDC Calendar. World Championship Premier League World Matchplay Grand Slam of Darts World Grand Prix UK Open European Championship Players Championship Finals.

Re: 2018 PDC World Matchplay- Blackpool- 21st-29th July 2018
Premier League offers extreme money, even to get in the PL you have to be an incredibly good player. Yes it is invitational but in reality the most deserving players get there with perhaps 1 or 2 exceptions. And you have to be in the top 4 for 15 weeks in order to get to the semis, which is harder t...

Re: Would you like to see the power return?
I would absolutely hate if he came back and was shoehorned into events. Him getting all the WS and PL invites is a certainty which is more than enough. However I wouldn't mind if he had to start from scratch

Re: Are Forums on their last legs?
Forums allow you to say things you can't on social media because they allow a degree on anonymity. Whether that's good or bad depends on your viewpoint. It's a great thing to be able to say what you want relatively freely. Really that's the only way proper discussion can take place. At the same tim...

Re: Are Forums on their last legs?
These threads pop up every year around this time. Of course Twitter and Facebook will take some traffic away from forums, but they'll have their place for the foreseeable future I'd reckon. Complaints about Facebook and Twitter are just constant moaning I reckon. They are bound to get some attentio...

Re: 2018 PDC World Matchplay- Blackpool- 21st-29th July 2018
Chisnall has generally done well in the first round of this event though. I have £15 on Chissy to win and average over 93.5, which was 3/1 with Betvictor last week, the market is no longer available Four 1st round match bets for me are: Brown to beat Chizzy 2/1 Hopp to beat White 7/4 Kyle to beat R...

Re: 2018 PDC World Matchplay- Blackpool- 21st-29th July 2018
For those interested in the ELO ratings I have referred to previously, here are the odds from 5 matches that represent fair prices in the opinion of The Darts Oracle. I will be using them to compare against the bookmakers odds in the hope I can find a couple of decent bets. Based on that Keegan Bro...

Re: European Tour 2018
Well not close to his best then, to be fair every top player can throw a 120 average so in theory they aren't close to their best until they are well above 110. But I would have mentioned the same examples, the 2015 PL final and 2017 Dubai. Also Gary won in a very long format in the 2015 Worlds quit...

Re: PDC Order of Merit
Is that the highest Steve West has been? £160k in the last 2 years, another example of why the top BDO players are a bit bonkers really for not moving. I bet they all think they would do as well, if not better than Steve West... (that is not to put down Steve, as I am talking about players like McG...
