Darts

Just the darts today, but its quality not quantity that counts! As discussed on here and in the comments board, there are few muppets in this competition and there are upsets to be had. But you still could have had 10/1+ on Kirk Shepherd beating Terry Jenkins yesterday. After my comment yesterday though we did see four straight 3-0s, so it does happen!

1.30 Jenkins +2.5 sets to beat Navratil 8/15 (LOST +5.09 - Won the match 3-2)
Navratil won his preliminary round match 5-0 yesterday but a 3-dart average of just 75 shouldn't trouble Jenks.

2.30 Hamilton, Barneveld & Klaasen Treble 4/3 (LOST +4.09 - Klaasen lost 3-2)
Hamilton should have no problems with Kwadjik and Barney is the shortest price a darts player has ever been priced up, so all we are doing is enhancing the odds on Klaasen to beat Van der Voort. When they were in the BDO, Klaasen would have been favourite without doubt but he has taken a long time to find his feet in the PDC. However, he win his first PDC Pro Tour event in Killarney last month and seems to be getting back towards his potential. Van der Voort is solid, but if Klaasen shows his Klaas (sorry!) he should be just too good. If you don't want to mess about with the treble, try 3-2 Klaasen...
