Darts: UK Open 2011

[kevshat]

The 'FA Cup of Darts' begins at the Reebok Stadium next Thursday. Starting the thread now as I'm away at the PL meet all weekend and I know it's an event where some decent pre event stuff is often posted. And I've had my first bet on it already :lol. Usual format, rounds 1 and 2 over the best of 11 legs which this year involves the likes of Wade, Lloyd and Klaasen among others :eek. And the 32 that are left join the top 32 in the order of merit from Friday onwards. Last 64-16 are the best of 17 with the QF and SF best of 19 and the final best of 21 legs. All done and dusted in the one weekend. Fire away gentlemen :ok.

Re: Darts: UK Open 2011 I'm sure I'll have one or two more outrights early next week but I'll hit this now as it's a standout price. I really think this could tumble a la Whitlock in last year's WC. 1pt ew J.Part to win UK Open 100/1 Coral (1/2 1-2) When John Part is on form he's still a match for anyone at this game and he showed in Austria a few weeks ago that his tungsten can still talk. He won a Players Championship event out there beating Phil Taylor early in the tournament on his way to the success and word is he played exceptional darts that day. Since then he's had a couple of quarter final efforts too beating the likes of Terry Jenkins and Ronnie Baxter among others along the way. Part's one of my favourite players and it's great to see him back in good form. We don't need to worry about watching him before the Friday of this after he made the top 32 in the UK Open OOM, another sign his form is coming back to where it once was. You don't win tour events of any kind these days if you are not playing well. Part appears he might just be and at a 3 figure price it's a no brainer to have him in your portfolio of bets for Bolton this year.
