[teddybreak]

Definitely rooting for Beaton out of the players left in the tournament!

Strange draw

Not really the same odds as any other draw.

1 in 40320.

[ssjsa]

LiveDarts interview with Gerwyn Price.

[ChrisW]

Price moves himself from no.2 to no.1 in the world. (form wise).

Don't start that again. But that seems way too high. If only IFM was here to believe you.

Edit- 1 in 40320 is the probability of the exact order
7, 8, 5, 6, 3, 4, 1, 2

But is is not the probability of the 4 combinations.

[ChrisW]

No not again.

Dear lord. Can't believe I'm now thinking about this.
But I think if the draw is considered the same if it's Cross v Beaton or Beaton v Cross and if it doesn't matter if those 2 players are drawn out first pairing (as long as they are paired together) then there are 105 different combinations of QFs.

[Zapp Brannigan]

What would be the point of rigging it anyway, we are getting a new champion no matter what?

Keeping the premier league guys away from each other does absolutely nothing

[DavidB]

Price moves himself from no.2 to no.1 in the world. (form wise).

No no, we’re told Price can’t be considered the second best in the world let alone the best on form because he only won two floor events without MvG, or something

[BlueSpark]

‘Same 8 players’

Still not sure if the mirror man is the best or worst nickname in the tourney. Too many beers for brain to work it out

I like it, bit creative.
Better than Duzza that's for sure.

[BlueSpark]

Just chucked £40 on Price to win event at 9/4

Also you can see the sodding balls being drawn from a perspex chamber, anyone who thinks it is rigged is a moron.

[ChrisW]

FFS nobody said it was rigged.

[markymark]

That's the insinuation though, or why even bring it up?

[Vriezzer]

Price moves himself from no.2 to no.1 in the world. (form wise).

Agreed.

[Black Velvet]

Is RD still here waving imaginary cards?

[BlueSpark]

Price moves himself from no.2 to no.1 in the world. (form wise).

Agreed.

He will have no trouble winning me my bet later then.
Lovely.

[Paddy McGinty]

Steve Beaton telling it how it is, loved the giggle when he mentioned PDC tournaments...... nothing beats Lakeside.

Got a few quid on the bugger myself

[DavidB]

Could be a very edge and nervy day, certainly this match has started that way...
