First round now out the way which gives a few stats to crunch.

No player looks to be in outstanding form(although Whitlock scored very heavily last night.) I'll do my usual of taking a few players who scored heavily despite shakiness on their doubles on the outrights.

1pts Jones @ 320
1pts Burnett @ 120
1pts Chisnall @ 85
3pts Anderson @ 10

Bottom half of the draw is far kinder than the top, so Anderson and Chisnall have their work cut out. Chisnall can beat Taylor though, while Anderson has a gimme against Peterson. Jones and Burnett both played very well in R1 and have more than winnable games in R2. In the bottom half of the draw both prices look decent.

For tonight the class difference between Jones and Scholten is such that I think Jones will win this with plenty to spare.

1pt Jones 4-0 @ 6.40
1pt Jones 4-1 @ 4.60
 
Been watching it on and off this last week, will settle down and watch it fully once Christmas it out of the way with.

I think Lewis will be in with a shout again as the draw looks to have been kind to him, he was a bit hit and miss in round one but then again he had been stung by a wasp, the way the draw has worked out it he should be fast tracked to the semis.
 
Jenks wins 4-1.

1pt Burnett @ 1.80

Not much else of interest today, perhaps Chisnall later but the outright is perhaps enough.
 
Taylor looks a bit ropey at the moment, just one set away from going out.
If Chizzers can hold is nerve then he's in with a real shout of causing an upset, he's shown a couple of times allready though during this match that he does buckle when it matters on the double.

3-1 up though and the way they are both playing Chisnell has to be favourite.
 
Taylor out, Chisnall missed his double at the end but so did Taylor then Chisnall finisihed him, is Taylor finally over the hill? on this performance and it was poor, it looks like it.
 
Nicholson v Tabern next, theres something about Nicolson I don't like, he's a good player mind but I hope Tabern can go up a gear in this match and kick his ass but I'm expecting Nicolson to win.
 
Burnett loses, chisnall wins :) Chizzy now not much better than 9/1 for the title.

Will need to reappraise the outright bets in the morning.

I flicked over just as he went 3-1 up whilst I was on B365's site.
Taylor was 1/2 and Chisnell 7/5 (or might have been 6/5) even with him being 3-1 up. :eek
 
A few reasonable looking punts today:

Whitlock looked superb in R1, dont think his injury is much of an issue. Beaton threw the lowest R1 average of any winner, Whitlock the highest.

1pts Whitlock 4-0 @ 5.10
1pts Whitlock 4-1 @ 3.90

Rand v Llloyd looks like a coinflip to me - Rand perhaps with a small edge on the finishing but not by much.

1pts Lloyd @ 2.44

Not sure about the R3 matches tonight yet.
 
Ive followed and gone for Whitlock 4-0 and 4-1
King out with a high score average, alot of big names going out early here
 
Whitlock started off bad but seems okay now won 5 legs in a row and leads 2-0 if he breaks here on Beaton's first leg its game set and match and probably ends 4-0
 
And he breaks he's playing well here Beaton looks rubbish tbh
 
Whitlock has fallen apart here looks like being 2-1 now missed 2 clean darts to go 3-0 up, im on under 10.5 180's now hopefully they start slowing down with them again and Whitlock can somehow break here
 
Beaton wins 3rd Set Whitlock is a wanker he had numerous chances to finish of the set there useless
 
Whitlock is losing it again 2-0 up had darts to finish the leg now 2-2 luckily its on his throw here but no doubt he will fuck it up, Beaton is starting to pick it up where as Whitlock is going down
 
Phew Whitlock just hangs on i cant see him winning this Set if he plays like he has in the last 2 he should of won this 4-0 poor finishing in the last 2 has cost him
 
Going down to this leg need Beaton to throw 40-60 and Whitlock to hit ton+, Whitlock should of had this wrapped up with a 4-0 win here
 
Phew Whitlock wins 4-1 he really shouldnt of won that set, under 10.5 180's came in as well just
