FINAL I am partial to watching the darts,never been live though. I route for MVG or Barney normally. Fantastic game tonight Eidams gave Van Gerwen a scare,first person since Taylor to take Van Gerwen to sudden death.
Personally I think Van Gerwen or Taylor will win this year. I think Wade will win this year. He's definitely got a nice quarter of the draw. 7 seeds out already, quite a few others have been close What a win by Barney.
From what I've seen it looks like Lewis or Anderson will win it. From what I've seen anyone could win it. Great win for Klassen I had a cheeky fiver on him at 3/1. Wright v Anderson Final 11/2 for me
