Well, it would at least mean big savings. Maybe Bob Potter should hire a qualified hypnotist who can subliminally implant "go to the PDC, you know you want to..." thoughts in the four semi-finalists by Monday...

OK, so we've had posters saying what the PDC could do to tempt the players away from the BDO, but, if you were the BDO, what would you do to try and keep these players?
Is there an answer?

The beginning of this year has been one of the best on forumland for a long time.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Robbie Green has already stated that it's not going to accept the Tour Card.

Jan Dekker on facebook: "That was my fourth Lakeside..2nd semi final in my career so far, really proud what I've done. Great win for Stephen tonight, he deserved this one. Thank you sponsors for the support (Credion Noord/Osseldarts/Dartbanenverhuur.nl/Grand Slam Darts). Everyone who support me this weekend. THANK YOU! I'll be back next year. "

Whatever happens - I'd regard Kist as a 'major switcher'.

Agreed 100%. He is the biggest name to switch this year to date.

Let's hope Chris can sort out his health issues so if he passes Q School can play the Pro Tour circuit on a more regular basis than he did -or rather: did not- attend the BDO tourney's after his Lakeside win.

Would Anastasia want to switch? Like Deta she tried that route once before, I suppose as a professional it's all down to the sponsorship she can achieve. In fairness the rewards from playing would not be great .
Must admit this lakeside has been the most enjoyable I have been to .
