Permutations for the two Lukes to avoid being in the same quarter of the Euros draw after yesterday's play:>Price/Clayton win the tournament (would move both Lukes down by 1 spot)>Any of van Veen/Nijman/Joyce win the tournament OR Price loses the final (would move Humphries down by 1)
>PriceWhat a bottlejob
>Welsh dartsThat was just pathetic from Clayton
Lemon eliminated by a ridiculous 111 average from Asp which guarantees Cross a spot in the Euros. Final Euros spot goes down to a straight shootout in the Exceptionally Low IQ Derby.
2 places in the Euros draw are fixed after the Clayton match: Bunting is #3 seed and Littler #4.
>>151460976Darts is less of a sport than League of Legends.
>Uter
>>151462944Incidentally that confirms Asp as #1 seed and Schindler as #2 seed. So only van Veen or Joyce winning the tournament will split the Lukes.
Wattimena's lowest average this weekend is 105
>>151462025Dim Dave wins meaning that the European Championship field is set.It is the World Grand Prix field with just two changes: out go Cullen and Gilding, in come Pikachu and Chisnall. So much for unpredictability.
>>151463568Oh, and the first match has been confirmed: Aspinall will play Cross. That'll be a slog even over best of 11.
>>151463517And jobs out at the quarters averaging 85 to Asp. Fat cunt.
THAT DORK 160
>>151470646AND DOWN GOES THE CLOWN
German comms made fun of Chizzy, saying he is showing less emotions than Steve Lennon.
>>151472088Probably because Chizzy can't conceive the idea of emotions.
>Chizzy>>151472278Actually wondered if he ever was more emotional, can't really remember him fistpumping or doing similar things in earlier days.
Holy fuck.
>MISSING 8 MATCH DARTS AGAINST 2025 RATPEAK CHIZZY
>>151463596That Chizzy choke has set up the top 4 seeds' matches:>Asp v Cross>Schinder v Chisnall>Bunting v Dobey>LITTLER v BARNEYTarget currently preparing the biggest circlejerk for a long time with 6 of their players drawing each other
>>151473091>LITTLER v BARNEYComms will have to go for a dual-rimming setup.
Eventually I'm going to call Chud 'Chud' irl and nobody's going to know who I'm talking about and then I'll have to explain way too much
CHUD MAX
THE MAX!
>>151473864Inevitable for all of us. Let us know how it went, so the rest of us can prepare accordingly.
Damn, I thought Chud had this. Well played from Aspinall though, huge comeback.
From the 170 out Asp averaged 111.33. Chud folded under the pressure. Asp proving why he's #1 seed for next week despite being unseeded this tournament.
>>151474820Oh, and the two Lukes are now in the same quarter of the draw. Everyone else in the field will be relieved.
Based Dirk, would be a deserved winner.>>151475476At least no Luke final.
>Asp v Dork finalEntire stage is going to be covered in snow
>>151475476And more confirmed seedings given Ratajski's exit: everyone up to #17 is locked in. Dork will go to #6 with a win, only thing that can change now.>we are in a world where Luke Woodhouse earned more Euro Tour money this year than 4 World Champions did
>>151477285Based Woodlouse. I know /180/ is not ready yet, but I am ready for a Woody top 16 player arc.
>Dork in stage finals
>Big Dirk losing the plot
I did not see this turning into 6-6 when Asp hit the 121 for 6-2.
>Big Dirk regaining the plot
Meh, would have preferred Chud or Dork.
