Price is shorter than I thought he would be... then again, he plays well, and the format suits him too, he is hitting the double 20 like a machine... and Smith hasn't been really tested yet, he had the easiest path from all the semi-finalists.
The other game, I'm very slightly leaning towards Cullen... his odds are almost what Wright had the previous round against Humphries, and he is better than this version of Wright IMO.
And I think neither of these 4 players loses 4-0 or 4-1, so over 5,5 in both games can be tried at around 2,7.

Smith 3-0 too, and he delivers the 180's at last for daveg!
Now comes the good part as a spectator.
Next match is where I did not dare to follow your picks... I couldn't decide on the winner, so I passed on it. Good luck to you both with the Humphries pick, if he plays at his best he will surely win!

Schindler wins...
... a leg!
3-0 Price
Now, come on world champ!

And again... MVG would be beatable tonight, he is vulnerable on the doubles.
-
Dobey misses 3 set-darts... down 1-2, and it's MVG's turn.
-
It's hard to watch... as you said, he could be 2-0 up, EASILY...
instead it's 0-2, and close to game over.

My prediction is 3-0 Price, 3-1 Smith, but I'm rooting for the double 3-0!

Tonight, I think all 4 favorites will win... but the odds are not too attractive... maybe a Bunting+Price double? Price vs Ratajski should be a "lock", right? And Bunting has been in amazing form for weeks now, he should beat Schindler.

the double-in rule plus the short format in the first round (with a break after the first set... which can easily disrupt the rhythm only after 3-5 legs played) makes betting on a short-priced favorite impossible.

Woodhouse stuns Chizzy...

I watched all the games yesterday, and... well, it can be erratic... the double-in rule plus the short format in the first round (with a break after the first set... which can easily disrupt the rhythm only after 3-5 legs played) makes betting on a short-priced favorite impossible.
I would like to oppose Wright again, but... Clemens at around 2 is not that enticing... I think I pass.

Nice outright picks. (Although Gary is now half the price he had before the last three PC events... 😀)
Tonight seems tricky as I like quite a few underdogs at first glance... but still, those usually don't win even if they look "promising". Maybe Gilding to beat Cross at around 2,73? Gilding looks kind of stable while Cross is vulnerable, and has a bad record in this tournament.

Good old Anderson wins the third one... it was incoming I think (sadly, I was not able to bet on PC 24...).
One thing I noticed: there haven't been as many "big surprise" winners as the last two seasons... only Huybrechts and Rydz fall into that category.

Players Championships returns today … and William Hill offering 4 places.
Going to have a few pennies on Christian Kist e/w at 200/1 as he impressed the last time he was in these events. Also tempted with Hempel (250/1), Vandenbogaerde (200/1) and van Dongen (500/1).
Fantastic pick, Daveg with Kist! He almost won it all! Frankly, he would have deserved it.

Woodhouse did nothing wrong in Budapest, I was thinking about picking him...

Wow. Just wow. 😮
First of all, Chisnall suddenly pulls out his best form today. I think Humphries would have won against anyone else but Chizzy. Chizzy steadily played at a very high level thoughout the Finals. But Humphries still had him... begins the very first leg with a 170 checkout (his second one today) 😮 goes up 2-0... the Chizzy crawls back, but Humphries still catches him and then makes a NINE-DARTER 😮😮😮to go up 7-5... then kind of falls apart, but still, one last spark of magic, 7-7, 141... triple 20, triple 19, double 12 for the win... NOPE, he misses the last dart.
The classic example of an EXCELLENT bet losing in the 97th minute in football terms...
PS: I have a very strong hunch that Humphries would have won IF he had missed that nine-darter...
these two really rule this season.

Again, great call, Fader.
If Humphries keeps up this sort of form (and he has been doing it kind of all season long), he might be the man to beat in the European Championship, and most importantly: the World Championship!
