Some big names fallen at the first hurdle today already, we won't be seeing: Clayton Barney Dirk Gilding Searle

Hopefully going out on a high today 🤞 Dobey 20/1 Rock 25/1 Ratajski 66/1 Pikachu 66/1 Wattimena 80/1 Scutt 200/1

Will be having a proper look at this later today, but as said previously you want to be in the top half. I've obviously made an error earlier in the year when I tried to back Ross Smith & Cullen for one of the European Tour events. Logged into Ladbrokes and I've open bets for them both to win this weekend. So accidentally, I'm already on: Ross Smith e/w 35/1 - Best price currently available 33/1 Joe Cullen e/w 60/1 - Best price currently available 125/1 😅

Is he defending much between now and then?

Wattimena is becoming infuriating to follow. How is this match still going?

Does this not go off the European Tour OOM? Where Aspinall is currently in 32nd. Gilding and DVD both currently in but not playing this weekend so at risk. Razma, Rydz, Menzies and Dolan just outside as it stands.

Gets going this evening. "The Luke's" have found themselves in the top half of the draw together, so if you're looking for value in the outright market it will probably be found in the bottom half of the draw. Anderson at 12/1 appeals, the form he was in last week was that of the Gary Anderson who was the only player who could go toe to toe with MVG when he was at the height of his powers. It's a shame Bunting has found himself up against Luke Humphries in R1, as he's obviously in great form having made all 3 PC finals last week. Chizzy is playing well and has fallen on the right side of the draw, but if history has taught us anything, it's that backing Chizzy in majors is a quick route to the poor house. Will have another look later today and lock my bets in this afternoon.

OK picks for today Ross 33/1 Noppert 40/1 Taylor 80/1 Edhouse 100/1 Joyce 125/1 Wattimena 125/1 Crabtree 250/1 Good luck all

The two Lukes have fallen into the same quarter today, and my main man Menzies is back! Ross Smith 25/1 Rock 28/1 Menzies 33/1 Mike De Decker 100/1 Wattimena 110/1 (4 Places) Dom Taylor 125/1 Soutar 200/1 (4 Places) Zonneveld 225/1 (4 Places) Kist 250/1 Good luck everyone

I thought for a moment Dom Taylor was going to be the one for me, missed 3 darts to beat Ando. Thankfully Nijman got over the line. I tell you what, if Anderson's form carries on like this, he won't be 25/1 for the worlds for much longer, honestly considering taking some of that now.

Yeah frustrating with how late the markets went up, pressed for time I've ended up on: Rock 25/1 Heta 25/1 Ross Smith 25/1 Wessel 40/1 Wattimena 125/1 Dom Taylor 150/1 Meikle 500/1 All Bet365 Best of luck everybody

I can't even find a entry list, which maybe explains why bookies haven't priced it up yet.

Agree Chizzy is well overpriced, have to follow in on Gian in current form also. And I will continue to throw good money after bad until Ross Smith has finally repaid me. Chizzy 22/1 Ross 25/1 Gian Van Veen 40/1 And I've also done a little 4 fold for this afternoons session of Nijman, De Decker, Gilding and Rydz which pays just over 3/1

Not had a proper dig into it yet, do you pay any attention to the Grand Prix qualification standings? Players like Dirk/Gilding just outside as it stands and needs a result this weekend.

Anderson now half the price of yesterdays 18/1 so I won't be backing him to do it again. My picks for the day: Menzies 33 Wessel 33 Noppie 50 GVV 50 De Decker 80 Wattimena 200 Lukeman 200

Had a bit of luck along the way there, couple of those matches he could easily have lost. Even more impressive he won it considering in the interview afterwards he said he was just there to "Catch up with Whitey and the lads and have a game of darts" 😅

Late to the party, but I'm on: Anderson Menzies Wessel De Decker Jim Williams Wattimena So I've already lost 2 😅

Likely I add another couple, but for now I have: Price 10/1 Noppie 40/1 Edhouse 80/1 Clemens 125/1 Wattimena 175/1 Scott Williams 175/1 Wouldn't normally back someone as short as Gerwyn for these, but he looked well up for it yesterday and I think he might be going for it this week in the hope he can win a good chunk of money and not have to bother turning up for the last few of these. He's 58th in the OOM as it stands!

40/1 the best price I can see for Menzies now, if this carries on he will be single figures by the time he actually wins one of these. Annoying we've been backing him at 100/1 while he's been knocking on the door

It looked like my interest in today was over with Wattimena 5-2 down v Cross. Comes back to win it 6-5 taking out 160 and 170 in the last 2 legs. If Menzies wins it today, I'll be happy for you lot, but furious I deserted him after backing him in the last 6-8 of these things.

My runners today: Ross 25/ Noppie - 40/1 Dirk 60/1 Schindler 60/1 Joyce 100/1 Lukeman 125/1 Wattimena 150/1 Kist 300/1

Annoyingly the Luke's are both present this week. Will wait for the draw as a result today I think. Menzies keeps getting shorter in these things without actually getting us any money back 😅 He's on the shortlist nonetheless, along with: Noppie 40/1 DVD 50/1 Schindler 50/1 Joyce 125/1 Dom Taylor 150/1 Lukeman 150/1 Wattimena 175/1 Will confirm final selections once the draw is out

I'm probably just asking to be burned again, but Menzies at 50/1 looks great value if he can make it past Gerwyn. Few quid on Nijmann at the same price also.

Given that I'd already picked out Dobey and Menzies an was undecided on the top half, just going to follow you in all the way 🤞

I'm going to try and go with a treble each week this season, see how I end up. Week 1 Denver +6.0 Miami -3.5 HOUIND Over 48.5 1 Point treble @ 7.6
