James Wade through but taken to a decider and Dimitri van den Bergh dumps out Barney

James Wade got through his opening game against Simon Stevenson but was made to fight for it. Wade who hasn't been in the best form as of late but showed his precision in Dusseldorf a few weeks back was taken to a decider by the Mirror Man who was 5-2 down at one point and Wade missed 4 match darts but it is 'The Machine' who used his experience to get through.
Facing him next is Dimitri van den Bergh who dumped out Raymond van Barneveld 6-4 with a second consecutive ton plus average which included multiple 9 dart attempts and a ten darter to finish as well as five 180's in a polished performance from the young Belgian which is good news for Luke Humphries who is now further ahead in the Development Tour race as 'The Dreammaker' won't make the concluding tournaments tomorrow.

- Luke Littler played incredible darts yesterday in the semi-final and the final, heralding a new era of darts (along with some of the other brilliant young players who are emerging). And yet, at Luke's celebration feast, de Decker's ghost is Banquo to Littler's Macbeth, mournfully looking on.
UndartedWaters18-11-2024 - Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
- I dont like individuals or crowds trying to put any player off when they are trying to check out, how anyone can think its okay for the crowd to whistle or shout as someone is throwing for a double is beyond me but it does seem to have become part and parcel of the modern game. I no longer play now, darts is as good as dead at a local level round my way but when i did play many years ago, no matter how intense the rivalry you never shouted out or whistled when an opponent from the other team was throwing for a double.Mysstree17-11-2024
- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.UndartedWaters16-11-2024
