I know it's a bit early but I can't let this price go. Taylor v Wade Wade to win. 10 pts 23/10 PartyBets Taylor as we know has never lost in this tournament and he'll have that knowledge and the crowd behind him.There will be lots of nerves about and with Taylor's game not in A1 condition then he could be up against it.Taylor's side-stepped the 3 tournaments that were before this match and with Taylor you don't know how that's going to pan out.Fresh or out of match practice? Wade making his debut in the PL has nothing to fear as he has been playing well in 2 out of the 3 tournaments played this year.Semi-finalist in the Blue Square N/E Open and winning Sundays Players Champ in Gibraltar. He's admitted he prefers playing Leg/Matchplay games rather than those that are in Sets,and with this tournament he should be well suited to it. 23/10 is a silly price and if the bookie is taking into account Taylor's dominance in this event then with a player like Wade you've got a chance to take the stubborn bookie for a bit of money.

Re: Premier League Darts 31/01/08 Yesterday's Bettingzone Market News: 1455: Totesport is offering 20/1 that Phil Taylor can claim his fourth consecutive Premier League title while keeping his unbeaten record in the competition intact. Taylor, who is the 2/1 favourite, has not lost in an incredible 44 matches since the Premier League started three years ago. The firm is also betting on who will take his unbeaten record and make James Wade, his first week opponent, the 7/4 favourite. Paul Petrie, totesport spokesman, said: "Phil Taylor has been the undisputed king of the Premier League and although we expect him to win again, it is unlikely to be with an unblemished record." ============ Hmmm. Phil's probably due a loss in the Premier League but ugh, the wait for the bet to continue/not lose would kill me as much as anything.
