Fader Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 It's never really been a favourite of mine for betting on but the thread is up and it will be interesting with Littler in, this year. Can't see past a final four of Littler,Humphries,MVG and Price though personally. ThunderDan9 and amity 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderDan9 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Yes, though the first three are more of a "sure thing" than Price (reflected in the outright odds as well). Price/Cross(/Smith?) is not that clear-cut maybe. That said, I like Price to win tonight. Firstly, it is in Cardiff, so a rare home advantage for him (and he won it last time if I remember right), and secondly Littler/Humphries/MVG are on the other side of the bracket. So basically he "only" has to beat Aspinall and Cross to reach the final. Fader 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted February 1 Author Share Posted February 1 1pt Littler to win PL and Worlds 2025 - 20/1 boosted with PP yes, it seems ridiculous, but I did a similar bet with Humpries to win multiple tournaments and i can't see Littler NOT making the final four in this event. Therefor, 20/1 for him to win 2 matches in this and then go on to win a Worlds? hmm, I'll take it with small stakes. vikki37, ThunderDan9 and amity 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, like you say, he won at Cardiff, last year. However, with average performances. He really should at least make the final and so at 7/2 outright then it's the best pick.

daveg Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I’ve not had a bet on the Premier League yet this year, but PaddyPower are offering 66/1 on Peter Wright to win tonight, which has tempted me to have a dabble. Wright is generally not playing well at the moment, but in an 8 runner race, I’m not sure his odds should be that high - he only has to win three matches. His confidence may have been boosted by a semi-final run at the Players Championships on Tuesday and he should get a fair amount of support from the crowd with it being in Glasgow tonight. I’ve backed him at 66/1 each-way (one-third the odds for a spot in the final). amity, vikki37, ThunderDan9 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having to beat Littler, Humphries and then MVG, I think the 13/2 on offer for Price to win Night 3 is a good one. Although I find it disgusting that the bookies offer 1/3rd of each way price with 2 places. How is that fair? 2pts Price to win Night 3 13/2 Bet365 vikki37 and ThunderDan9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fader Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Skybet offering Littler 3+ 180s and 2+ 100+ checkouts against Price. 8/1 The pair have played twice. Both times Littler won. 1st match he hit 2 180s and hit 2+ 100+ checkouts. 2nd match he hit 4 180s and 1+ 100+ checkouts I'm of the opinion that Price performs tonight and so that might be abit of value. vikki37 and amity 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Still a very good bet on Wright. You could see he was up for it. MVG was there for the taking but recent scars and Wright being very fragile right now showed. loses to an 89 average MVG ThunderDan9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amity Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Poor last leg from Humps, shame he couldn't finish the job, MVG starting to build serious momentum now.

Darts is so mental. players always play the name and not the board. You saw it with Price last night. He saw the Littler win as something huge for him. Which tells me that he already thinks that the kid is better than him. amity and ThunderDan9 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderDan9 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I'm glad that MVG won a couple of days/tournaments. After the worlds it seemed that Littler and Humphries were going to dominate the season. amity and Fader 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fader Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 I'm enjoying the Players Championship events more than the PL at the moment. I've never done that great betting on the PL.

ThunderDan9 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 (edited) Two guys that look promising to me at the moment are De Decker and Menzies. I tried the Belgian to win the worlds (LOL), but of course he failed at the big stage... but on the floor he can score for sure.

I will be with him again on the next. Menzies always seems to have that crazy game in him where he underperforms, for me.

amity Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 (edited) I notice that William Hill are offering 4/6 on a nine darter to be thrown in the Premier League, including the playoffs. Considering that two different players missed it by one dart last night, I think there's a pretty good chance of this happening over the remaining nights. There's also Gary Anderson missing the final dart twice during the Players Championship the other day (admittedly he's not in the Premier League, but still it seems more players are getting very close to a nine darter these days). For me, it's worth the risk even at relatively short odds, to throw a few quid on.

I heard a stat (can't remember the exact number) but basically, there have been more "last dart misses" of a 9-darter than ever. Id be a bit greedy and look for 2 or more 9-Darters. amity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
