Looks like the aussie is gonna run away with this. He was pretty close to that 164 finish

Yeah, it's only at the end of each set, so it's not too bad really. John Parts commentary is pretty decent.

3-0. Can't see painter coming back now.

HID commented that we must like drinking and gambling a lot in the UK. I'm not sure what her point is. Two more matches, the bloke who took out Taylor and then Barney. :thumbup:

No computer and the streams are a pop-up minefield for android so I'll have to wait till the World Junior Hockey Championships are over then TSN will probably air the series. What's funny is that when I was walking up and down Vancouver with my darts in my pocket posting on here I couldn't find a game.

Well next time drop me line, there's a pub with a dart board near me. They also have a pool, table football, pin ball and some shove ha'penny type game.

Are you near the drive? I wanted to check out the WISE club. I've played at the Rail and the Rose and Thorne, Rose and Crown maybe? That was long ago. The big scary action was at the Blue Horizon on Robson 30 years ago, they had about 15 boards and it was busy. Hiram goes to the big city.

Don't drop me a line. You sound like you might be quite good at the game.

No, nowhere near it. I'm about as rubbish as Alan2005 though.

Jeez, he knocked two trebble 20s out and only got 20.

Oh no, it's been so long since regular darts you shouldn't be scared. It's nothing like whatever you're watching, believe me! I'm not consistent enough, can have my moments but I'm really rusty after having 5 operations in 4 years incl R shoulder this year. :( I even play with outdated Magda 30g copper-tungsten darts from before they had nickel-tungsten and those must be getting rare. I like the old 301 double in & out standard bar game but can play open in.
