>>154559608>hairy cellWhat an unpleasant name for it.
Roidlet btfo

Get these shitters off the stage
WELCOME TO THE BDO
The arrers
Littler just ran over him in the final leg, averages would have been in the stratosphere without that comedy shitshow in leg 1
Emma bros how we lookin?
>dumphries
Mensur's qualified for the Austrian Darts Open by going through the Home Nation Qualifier. His draw is as follows:>James Wade v Cameron Menzies/Mensur SuljovicThree mentalists, comedy guaranteed

>>154560985kek'd
Why's Emma dressed like a bond villain
>>154560213Not at her best tonight tbqhwyf. (Still would).
>>154559608Must be really disheartening seeing people on the verge of bursting out with laughter everytime you say you have hair cell leukaemia
>>154560970Couldn’t Blumphries be up to joint 3rd with a night win?
>>154561168>well it's the only hair you've got, Mark
>>154561219Yes, would be 4th on nights wonIf that were to happen and he beat Bunting next week, Bunting would also be eliminated
Missed most of tonight, visiting family. Has Mardell got the night off? >>154561227Harsh, but kek’d
BOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>154561254Yes, they mentioned he's off in comms.>Harsh, but kek’dIt's exactly the sort of thing Richie would say, kek
>six perfect darts>t5I do not care for this.
>>154561236Mad to think considering how indifferent he’s been this season. >>154561267Shame, he’s much better than Part.
the neins are cursed tonight
>>154561353ja
I don’t understand how they can throw a tightly grouped 180 and then follow that up with a big 5. They seem to do this all the time. Why does their aim get so wayward between goes?
>TRYING D17 D20 WITH LITTLER ON D10 FOR THE MATCHI M B E C I L E
what a cagey deciding leg
>>154561445Each batch of 3 is it's own thingGet a 180, and you just do the exact same thing again and again
>>154561493I mean, to get a 180, you hit T20 and do the exact same thing again and again. Copying your first throw of the 3 straight away is easier than copying it 20 seconds later
If Littler wins the final and beats Clayton in their first match next week, Littler will secure top spot in the table.
>>154561445 They make it look easy but it really doesn't take much to lose a bit of focus for a split second with a few thousand people right behind you.
>Luke being starstruck by playing in front of some Leeds United shitters. Kinda sweet, ngl. Also, he’s changed his shirt.
>>154561504It's somewhat funny and at the same time quite disappointing that out of everyone this year, his biggest rival has been the OTHER sheepshagger with gout problems
>>154561537>Of the 8 elite dartists there’s been one case of gout, one case of kidney stones and one bar room brawl. Kek, absolute state of it. Love it.
>Liverpewl vs Leeds to face Yanited in the finalalso did anyone else just catch bunting throwing the roman salute for a split second
>>154561576Don't forget one colossal tantrum
Is it worth going to darts just to sit far away and high up
>>154561654Can’t believe they’re still yet to play each other since then.
>>154561686Only if you’re there for the drink and not the darts.
>>154561521can't remember if he has worn it before but it looks better than his usual
im scared luke bros
>every match 6-5corr, *stands up*
Stephen Bunting you fat fuck you were leading 5-3
>cunting
>bottling
>CUNTING MISSING THREE CLEAR DARTS AT TOPS FOR THE FINALL M F A O
Haha fuck off fat scouse cunt
>>154561834Top notch jobbing from bunting.
>loseting
you'd have to say buntings probably not going to make top 4 now after that choke
Another week, another Luke-off. Ah just like old times...
>>154562005I hope thats not real Littler was a skinny fuck and Humphries was a fatty now the tables have turned
They should say something along the lines of "6-5 is the new 67" and then leave an awkward silence before moving on.
>>154562032It is real. From about 7 years ago IIRC.
>>154562032>>154562079Aged 12, just 4 years before they would meet again at the world final
>>154562005>>154562200Fuck me, he’s only 24 there? Darts is worse than drugs
>>154562032Skinny is a bit generous.
I just really miss John McDonald.
didnt know the prime minister was into the white stripes greatest hits
>>154562305>when Lewis Jones can't talk into a microphone properlyWas always funny when John could never ever pronounce Krzysztof Ratajski correctly.
looks like another 6-5 to me
>>154562330He has zero charisma or stage presence or whatever you wish to call it.
>>154562362I'd call it "stage authority". At least with John you KNEW it was match time.
>only Gezzy couldn't be bothered to play 11 legs tonight
kek
COME ON LUKE
TOTAL COLLAPSE
Humphries looked like hed lost already at 5-4 wtf
>Dumphries>againFucking folding fanny
Littler wins lol
What in the name of mental midgetry was that??
Who collpased worse honestly Humphries or Bunting
>5-4 up>realise Littler hasn't broken yet>nopressure.jpg>(DO IT FOR THE BOYS LUKE!!)>all of a sudden start hitting random 1s>deciding leg, but you have the throw>play like you're down 2-5 and don't even get close to a finish
Humphries is a magnificent choker.
truly a leeds-like performance from humfreeze
>>154562410Not quite sure, on paper it was probably Bunting but Luke's seemed worse
And so the Darting Dystopia continues to progress at an unstoppable pace as Luke Littler makes it three nightly wins in a row and six in total this Premier League Darts season as Luke Humphries' unbeaten record in Leeds came to an end with yet another mental collapse against the superior Luke, on a night where all but 4 legs were played with six successive 6-5 scorelines.The final itself between the Lukes was a brilliant quality contest with the pair both averaging just under 101, but after 132 and 146 outs for Cool Hand and The Nuke respectively, the younger Luke got the first chance of a break of throw to lead 3-2 but missed the bull and then D10 & D5 to do so. Nine straight holds allowed the older Luke a chance to take the match, but wayward darts from 186 downwards saw him on 78 six darts later, getting just one dart at tops to win the night, which he missed and Littler returned to hit tops last dart in hand to level. Humphries then imploded, hitting just a single big treble in the first 9 darts of the decider which allowed the World #1 the time to not only completely fuck up 82 to leave 26, but then split it to take the night and go 5 points clear at the top of the table.Unless these "elite" players put the pressure on Littler in deciding legs, they will never manage to beat him again in a final. And that's quite the concern.A mention for the Luke Humphries-Stephen Bunting semi-final which was a superb affair that saw the Bullet implode even harder, somehow losing from 5-3 up and possibly killing his play-off chances. Speaking of dead play-off chances, Josh Rock was officially eliminated tonight, but let's be honest: he was eliminated after failing to win at all in the first 7 weeks. At least he had that 9 darter.The Austrian Darts Open starts Friday and finishes Sunday, with the penultimate PL night in Birmingham next Thursday.
>genuinely forgot to hit post>>154562575Tybop. >At least he had that 9 darterAnd a classic nine hit out of desperation, infront of the home crowd in Belfast. Almost forgot. Luke looked like he might get one tonight but don't think anythings rattled him enough yet to really push himGuess i was right about Littler pissing about intermittently then locking in for the last few weeks. Once he gets going, and he's got this strange bit of luck on his side (opponents crumbling under pressure basically), it seems inevitable he will keep winning.
>>154562456>They don't call him Warm Hand Fluke for nothing yknowhttps://youtu.be/fxXw92YGevk?t=86
