Both Q-Schools are extremely tough this year, some good Europeans though coming through.

What will happen when people with the tour card dont use them in the events? Will there be a reserve list to choose from or like last year and use the highest associates what have entered as reserves so to speak?

More like the man who played Ally Pally and played many Euro events with success failed to get out of Q School.

BDO fans still blocking out the horror of a Johnny Foreigner waltzing into Bridlington and beating their number 1 and 2 players over distance on TV, there :D

So you think participating at Ally Pally and in Euro events is more noteworthy than winning the World Masters. Interesting.

I can't disagree. Its almost a total lottery.

Edit: Is he out of the running? To me, it seems like he might just sneak in. My screen has just updated.
Regardless, he'll be in the Pro Tours because not all players will show up.

Also: Noppert cannot win a direct tourcard (doesnt even play a final) over 4 days. Seems no one of the BDO-boys will.

Whilst the BDO players have done very poorly its a good result for the BDO itself as it may deter others from leaving and indeed some of their big stars
like O'Shea and Fitton may be coming back sooner than expected.

Well it’s more recent - he’s a PDC player! Wonder if he might go back to BDO now?

Effectively Diego Portela v Vincent Kamphuis for a tour card. The winner will move into the 6th and final place.

How do you know how he will get on next weekend? Is he entered?

Ratajski might like the idea of being a double World Master.

Even if Ratajski fails, with being able to play the European Events and his(probable) inclusion in the Grand Slam he should end up in the top 64 i would think. So he's not really missing out on much.

11 will be guaranteed at a guess.
