Lok Yin Lee produced a dream PDC World Darts Championship debut as he won nine straight legs to dispatch Chris Landman and move through into Round Two.
But he has ruled out Q-School admitting that his home life and also finances prevent him after previously having a go and saying himself that he couldn't see the benefit when all was said and done.
But he did get the crowd on his side and produced an epic display which got many wondering but at least for now, he won't be daring to dream.

"For me it is a first experience on the stage but I really want to thank my fans, friends and family who support me and my sponsors thank you. Really happy about that," said Lee post match.
"Ally Pally has got a lot of fans and a lot of people behind me. I think the stress is more than the World Cup. Only one person plays on stage, for World Cup I have a partner behind me so this time I think wow. Really happy about it and I really want to try my best."
"For me, take rest for these two days and just get ready for me. Because he is top 32, it's not easy but I will try my best. That's it."
He spoke about the growth of Asian darts with Paolo Nebrida starring but said there is marked difference in playing back home to in Europe.
"Paolo Nebrida he won a match. He's a good player. A lot of Asian players are good players. The difference is the doubles, the score is good. But the doubles is different to the European player."
But it isn't a win like alluded to that gives him dreams of grandeur just yet. "In 2021 I tried Q-School already. But it's hard to finish it for me. Because the money and my family cannot let me try Q-School. The money is more important for trying Q-School. Maybe next year I will prepare myself and get ready for the next year."
