G'day mate
Do you really bet on who is going to win at throwing darts mate? Damn that seems like really reaching down deep in the barrel to find something to make a bet on. So what do you think will the new ROYAL baby be cursed with it's grandfathers ears?

Always enjoyed playing darts and watching the tournaments, but haven't been able to catch any of them here in the states. For the most part we played Cricket, 501, etc. Makes me want to go buy a new dart board and start up again. Anyway, going to search for the game your talking about to see if I can find it. These players are unbelieveable. To bed triple 20's and actually hit what they're aiming at with repeatedability is unreal. Have a good day all!
Posted by Samtoace: Well 5 sets to nill to Waites now first to 7 .... It look like my bet is lost
But there is still hope ...
EDIT now 5-1 Come on Tony .... Save my bet Silver back,,,
S**t 6-1
------------ Scot wins ....
Oh well I have just lost 20 euro .... Yes I did put up another 10 bet .... But hay I'm still up 30 thanks to the MOB draw.
Yeah unlucky for your bet mate. Tony didnt even turn up there. Still �30,000 for second place ain't bad.
100,000 for the winner thow ... not bad for two weeks work.... God I wished I still'd played darts .... I could of been a Frimley Green (Lakeside) contender...

I watched several years ago a final game on the tv. I must say it was one of the most boring sports i have ever watched. Was my first and last, along with other sports.

Betting on darts pros is a task too difficult for me to even think about doing it. And you consider 10 euro a small bet, how were the odds? Was he favourite? O Shea is known worldwide, but when we see to players able to do three triple 20's in a row each time they throw a series of three darts... perhaps things could turn more interesting if they were playing shuffled numbers (i know they play extremely well for any number, and that would beneficiate the first player to act, knowing the high level of both).
