Didn't have Ando getting steamrolled on the card.

Didn't have Ando getting steamrolled on the card.

I had him in the final against Littler :(


what an absolute disaster today was


Draftkings has match average betting.

I never tried it but the averages seemed super high and I'm 8 for 8 betting unders. They had Littler at 103.5 (104.5 for round 2) Anderson at 99.5 Bunting at 98.5 Michael Smith at 97.5 etc. Am I just running hot or are do these averages just seem too high?

Got to take into account that at this stage of a world championship you'll be playing a higher level of player than what you would be on average if you're just trying to compare to, say, the seasonal Pro Tour numbers. That 56 you're taking out against Callum Goffin or Robbie Knops in a sixth visit that drags your average down, you're probably not getting that visit at all. As to whether the bets in question are value, I don't know as I don't track raw averages, but just bear level of opposition in mind

That was one of the reasons I was taking unders on the seeded players in the second round and not their opponents. I'm almost sure every under of a seeded player hit. Definitely anyone who they had at 97.5 or under. For example Van Veen was just 98.5 and averaged 92. And he was playing one of the better players for the second round.


I ring this bell once a year or so, but Rapid for Premier League makes so much more sense this year than previous given how much parity there is after the top 2.


That 131 out from Chizzy needing 139 was epic

I was yelling at my screen. "NOPE TOPS TOPS TOPS **** YOU, GET HIS ASS RICKY" and then my wife told me to stop yelling because I scared the dog.


Ricky is the hero we need.


HETA!


why does everyone i bet on who hits a nine immediately hit the self destruct button afterwards


eject button, my goodness.


lol Cullen

I think part of the reason people don't beat humphries very much is because they don't want to spend then next 15 minutes hugging him and talking really close


Rofl


That was some game


Went to the sunday evening session at the palace ( the Humphries/Wright one).

I was shocked at how small the crowd section is, looks much bigger on TV. I can actually understand the PDC wanting to go bigger tbf.

> 50% of the crowd was German, that was quite sad

Yeah they market specific sessions for their travel packages and schedule accordingly, that would have been the Clemens session if Robert Owen didn't say no
