The opening matches of the Czech Darts Open are complete with Martin Lukeman, Stefan Bellmont, and Geert Nentjes reaching Saturday's action in Prague.
Lukeman will face Nathan Aspinall on Saturday after a routine win over Patrik Kovacs. It was 6-2 for 'Smash' despite him missing 17 darts at double throughout the tie.
While for Bellmont, he survived a late fightback from Rowby-John Rodriguez to seal his spot in the next round. It is only a second European Tour win albeit in as many weeks from the Swiss ace.
Rodriguez came from 5-1 down with it finishing 6-4 in the end to Bellmont but for 'Little John' his form woes continue after a superb 18 months prior to this year. For Bellmont, he is on the up.
Geert Nentjes nearly was stunned by the first Czech ace in the tournament in David Pisek. But an astonishing miscount and a missed match dart allowed him off the hook.
Going for 72 for the match, he missed it twice but the first time he went single 20, treble 20 and Nentjes went on to win it from there in a decider 6-5 with Pisek missing 117 for it.

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
UndartedWaters19-11-2024 - 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
