if humphries plays like he did last night then he'll win.

but will he?

Yeah the man's average was insane, he was checking out from over 100 time after time and he didn't really miss a double when it mattered. Basically unbeatable when you're playing like that. But then there was no pressure from the opponent, no chance Littler makes it so easy for him.

Jesus. 12 points a dart.

Was he on Ketamine? Left hand struggled to pass a dart to his right hand.

Painful to watch that. I remember watching it at the time. I assume he was just incredibly nervous and got pissed to try and combat the nerves.

PDC order of merit before the worlds

Position   Name   Value
1   Michael Smith   £1,271,250
2   Michael van Gerwen   £1,107,250
3   Luke Humphries   £1,045,500
4   Peter Wright   £996,250
5   Gerwyn Price   £662,250
6   Nathan Aspinall   £647,500
7   Danny Noppert   £537,750
8   Rob Cross   £525,500
9   Jonny Clayton   £490,000
10   Damon Heta   £468,250
11   Dave Chisnall   £464,500
12   Dirk van Duijvenbode   £458,750
13   James Wade   £434,000
14   Joe Cullen   £430,750
15   Dimitri Van den Bergh   £408,000
16   Ross Smith   £371,000
17   Chris Dobey   £363,750
18   Stephen Bunting   £351,250
19   Ryan Searle   £344,750
20   Andrew Gilding   £343,000

Humphries   obviously moved to number 1.

If Littler does win he would move up to 9th.

Below I think Chizzy has moved back into the top 10 with his run.

Premier league picks will come from that top 10 unless the PDC wants to cash in on the wave Littler has put himself on

Should be pointed out that every player in the top 50 made over £100k this year so the prize money is there

It’s night like this that make you realise that Darts isn’t just about speed boats, tank tops, non dart player to throw first and a 16 year old with a cholesterol rating of higher than any 3 dart finish - no, it’s about the spirit of the beautiful game - the arrers - man, dart, board and garish ill fitting top - as one, making an entire auditorium of tragically dressed single men, in neon coloured cartoon character outfits, enjoy one night of bliss and the release from self loathing and endless nights of masturbation to the pages of the Freemans catalogue lingerie section…and, as the merry gang of friends drift off into the night, the distant boom of 180, the little Augustus gloops cholesterol count at the weigh in, echoes out in their heads and lives long in the ‘what a night that was we had in the Ally Pally eh Bri’ memory. and its one final debate on the Winmau Dart versus the new Dutch Felchlip Dart, and its back to work for the lads at the Basingstoke national tyres garage, in the morning….. One hundred and fucking eighty!

Watching that young lad play darts last night has inspired me, especially after his post match interview. So much so that I decided to make myself a cheese omelette for my lunch today. I'm not sure I've done that before and I don't feel particularly well after eating it but I guess that's the price of being inspired.

I'm jealous, just come back from there after a two week break. Eating out, watching a bit of the footie and playing golf everyday in the sunshine. First game yesterday after getting back and got rained on for 18 holes solid, just awful.

Controversial shout but I think this has been a poor tournament outside of these two. Smith, MVG and Price going out relatively early has allowed some weaker players to make the last 8. Final needs to be a classic because apart from the Humphries 5-4 comeback, there have been far too many easy wins.
