Well after a completely underwhelming opening night's action we have a double session to look forward to today. Hopefully a few bets present themself and we can start to make some money 
Wayne Jones v Jerry Hendricks:
Opening match of the day sees the man from Wolverhampton take on the young dutch player Hendricks. Jones has always been a fairly solid 90 average player on tv but he's had a really bad season on the floor and looks to be going one way down the rankings. He's a former semi finalist back in the day at the worlds but I'd be surprised if he has that sort of run left in him. Hendricks hasn't exactly been setting the darts world alight but he did get to the last 16 of the euros when he pushed Taylor and only lost 10-7. I'm not massively keen on him as a player from the limited action I've seen but I do think he's got a winnable game here and at the price I'll have a small tickle on him.
Recommendation: 0.5pt win Jerry Hendricks @ 21/10 (Boils)
Daryl Gurney v Robert Marijanovic:
Prelim for this afternoon features the former BDO player Gurney up against the european qualifier Marijanovic. I actually thought Gurney had a decent action when he played at Lakeside and hopefully he can win through this as I think he could be a dangerous opponent. I know next to nothing about marijanovic in all honesty though so couldn't recommend anything. My only hope is Gurney's sister is in the crowd
Recommendation: No Bet
Richie Burnett v James Hubbard:
Interesting match here between the resurgent Burnett and the world youth champ Hubbard. Burnett has shown a real return over the past year and is capable of playing some tremendous darts but is also capable of some real duff stuff. Hubbard on the other hand is a very interesting prospect and could be a future top 16 player in the coming years. Before looking at the prices I thought Hubbard was a live prospect in this match and at 11/8 I think he's worth a wager in what could be a very tight match.
Recommendation: 1pt win James Hubbard 11/8 (SBet)
Terry Jenkins v Steve Brown:
The raging bull makes his bow v Steve Brown who looked like a prospect a while back but doesn't really seem to have kicked on. Terry has never been a fan of this venue and is struggling for form too but the lack of Brown doing much this year puts me off having a bet on him. However I think this could be a close match and both are well capable of hitting maxes so I'm going to have a punt on over 6 maxes.
Recommendation: 1pt win over 6.5 maxes @ 4/5 (General)
Andy Smith v Gurney/Marijanovic:
Pieman plays the qualifier and if it's Gurney I think we might have a shock. All depends on the price though and lots of ifs involved before that happens.
Recommendation: No bet (At this time)
Dave Chisnall v Shane Tichowitsch:
First match of tonight sees Chissy Rascal take on the aussie qualifier Tichowitsch. Chissy will be hoping he can replicate last year's run which saw him knock out Taylor along the way. He's had another good season and has risen up the rankings and hopefully we see the best of him this next fortnight. Tichowitsch qualified by winning the aussie order of merit and makes his 2nd appearance at Ally Pally. he lost to Andy Smith 2 years ago and didn't look too bad but if Chissy plays to his form he should win comfortably. Odds on to win 3-0 makes no appeal to me though but I think Chissy will win with a bit in hand.
Recommendation: No Bet
Max Hopp v Charl Pietersen:
Quite an interesting prelim as things go here between the 16 year old Hopp & South African Pietersen. Hopp making it here at such a young age clearly shows he has a bright future and by all accounts Pietersen played really well to qualify. No bet as too many imponderables but looking forward to watching this.
Recommendation: No Bet
John Part v Joe Cullen:
3 time champ Part and forum favourite plays his opener v Joe Cullen who I think has a decent game in him. Party seems to be struggling more and more on tv but he may find a bit of comfort in coming back to Ally Pally where he's a former champ. Cullen always seems to do ok in the UK Open but never really had a good run in a tv tourney. Part at 1/2 looks too short to me and I'll be risking a min bet on Cullen to cause a little bit of a surprise.
Recommendation: 0.5pt win Joe Cullen @13/8 (Bet 365)
Phil Taylor v Michael Mansell:
Taylor takes to the stage tonight and at odds of 1/50 he will appeal to the money buyers only. I see no edge in this match but if Taylor plays his B game he'll probably win 3-0.
Recommendation: No Bet
Denis Ovens v Hopp/Pietersen:
Mr Saturday Night himself Captain Hobo takes centre stage tonight and lets all hope and pray he has no injury problems like last year. Depending what happens in the qualifier I think this might be a potential shock but again impossible to say till after that.
Recommendation: No Bet
Summary: An interesting day ahead I think and hopefully we can get a couple of winners. Not massively confident but I do think there's a couple of potential winners lurking in there for us.
All the best to all the regulars and anybody taking a chance on today's games

lol Nilsson , u must be pleased the way KJP played just now
part has a point but i think hes dr5ugged or boozed the way hes going on about it
what did he say? caught the end with the utter mug dave clark squirming a bit

walk on girl wouldn't let Part finger her..... we thought it was disrespectful
Awkward interview. couldn't tell if Part was taking the p!ss or not. I'm guessing not and if thats the case he wants to ****g lighten up.
Serious answer now. They have no mural of Part this year. Barney has one and he has won the PDC once. Part's won it twice and there's no mural. He found it disrespectful.
he should be more concerned about his ever increasing weight imo..
I don't blame him at all...just called it like it is, and he's rightly pissed off!
PS - he needs LESS lightening up that virtually all of them!

oddly enough i dont think john would want anything to do with the walk on girls , not his cup of tea methinks. not that it matters but i assume john bowls from the pavillion end
Agreed Danspan...............they cant afford the paint
there had better be one by the time he plays aluns pal tezza or else all hell could break loose
Listening between the lines over the months in Taylor's interviews, I sense he doesn't appreciate MVG too much.
Another 'sideways' dig at MVG
Another 'sideways' dig at MVG
yes he gets under pressure, tells his opponenent to **** off out the way and everything
I miss that Jess Simpson walk on girl a couple years back when I went to the Ally Pally.... that girl was pure filth
Someone probably offered to paint it, but they refused and kept him to beer crate loading.
what did he say there navel that makes u think that?personally i think taylors a total t5at but i think its fair to say theres players with similar chances to mvg and taylor recognises it.
give him a fekkin picture, he wont be looking at it for much longer, he'll be back on the plane in a few days.
I just think it would show more class if he didn't say anything and let others comment on the "lack of mural". Take the moral high ground so to speak. Nice xmas shirt from Taylor here!
God this looks one pointless match. Might turn over to Babestation and knock one out instead of watching this.
if anyone's going on the day Part next plays..... stick a polaroid of him on the wall for a laugh :D
You can't knock Taylors christmas shirt.
Anyone who wears a darts top with a snowman on it gets my respect!

erm no i would hate to be there with 1000's of noisy,loud londoners
danspan sounds like a seething cullan backer to me 
SOLW - it's the way he's 'dismissive' of MVG as just another quality thrower...we all know that his recent form has been exceptional, and he's given it to Taylor with the Power's 'A' game!
Conversely, MVG has been respectful towards Taylor when he's been asked about him, and I sense the tension/rivalry is with Taylor and not MVG.
After The Hammer beat MVG, Taylor commented that he got a bit of his own medicine with the Hammer roar!

being a disrespectful pillock, wont wear that shirt against thornton in r3
treble = you finished yet? I had a quick switch , bit minging, think it will take you a bit longer , try 909!
oh fair enuff navel as i said i dont like taylor one bit i find it horrid when he patronisingly says what a good player(how well he played) after taylor thrashes an oponent.
There have been some woeful performances so far in this tournament and we're only into the third session!
Makes you wonder just how bad players like Hankey, Hylton, Klaasen, Tabern & Alcinas have been!
There are quite a few other surprising omissions like Scholton, Henderson, Farmer, Heydon & Dudbridge to name just a handful.

Yes teesider,
Miss 909 is indeed a most spaffable piece of work. Only 10 minutes until the chebs come out. Her's I mean, not Taylor's.

taylor probably booked a table at an indian for a curry for 10.15 when he saw he was drawn against thisguyreminds me of a story (my pals a big buddy of wllie thorn), willie was 4 or 5 frames clear only needing 1 more to go thru in an evening match, willie said to my pal go and book the table ill be over soon , my mateand a couple of others got stuck into the popdoms, then ordered the main meal , no sign of willie. they finished the grub went back to the crucible(or whateverthe venue was), meanwhile it was now all square with willie still needing one frame, he lost

Got to go under the ton average here though for Taylor
willie thorn = best player in the world ( "in practice" )
I dont know whether that 909 bird is going to get them out you know , can see her doing the teasing substitution.

willie was yop ten player, pobably top 5. i think its no secret that willie wasnt the strongest mentally but many worse players have been world champ, joe johnson, graeme dott, several others.my pal and other who have been introducedto willie just say the samee hing , a proper bloke , one of your own.
its frustrating to watch the best players struggle in the early rounds , like Jackpot yesterday ...
Poor Willie Thorne will be eternally sickened by that blue off the spot against Davis 
Thorne used to own a horse called Maximum Man some years ago...a long standing maiden that had a success rate similar to its owner 
thorne was 13-8 up when he missed that Blue ( when it was first to 16 to win the 1985 UK )
I'm not going to laugh at that NG, because my gambling success rate is worse than his.
This Mansell really is hard viewing...just how bad were that lot I mentioned before, in failing to qualify for this? 
Nick - can't remember the precise scores as you did, but I just recall it was a gilt-edged opportunity to win and he suffered for it!
Anderson, Whitlock, Hamilton, Painter (especially the latter) et al must be looking to 'the gods' and wondering why Taylor NEVER plays like this against them!
Just switched it on, what was Taylors dig at part?
Come on the Heat!!
Come on the Heat!!
hobo will beat up the over hyped 16 year old german may even be 3-0 get on guys
kjp was still seething

"maybe they didn't have enough room to fit his mural on" - or words thereabouts
treble - told you 909 would do the sub, no baps for you!

Muzza - Taylor said they'd probably struggle to 'fit him in' though that dumb fcuk would have no idea of the double entendre
For once, I have to defend Taylor as he's wasn't making a snide comment.

Hobo's slow pace might piss this kid right off...be warned - as good as Max the Plank looked earlier, Ovens is a wily old fox and odds against could look appealing after a leg or two 
Hobo looks rank ALREADY after SIX darts...erase my previous post about Denis having a chance
Denis' darts look like they've been 'acquired' from the skip he undoubtedly resides in
Got to be the most rag-arsed set in the game with only Ted's giving them a run for their money

"he looks like a man trying to solve a quadratic equation"
hahahaha
hahahaha
That clean looking, crisp shirt really doesn't suit Denis...a string vest might see him hit the lipstick!
The wasp has just picked up the scent of the skip
Should Hopp win this...I wouldn't mind laying Lewis at 1.1 in the next round as he's been pathetic, and this guy will appreciate the tempo Adie plays at.
I really hope that Hopp wins this as Ovens cannot possibly give Lewis a game in this form - I'm sure the Kraut will improve for the decent pace against Lewis.
Dennis needs that WASP to sting him. It may wake him up

I've been watching the final 2 parts of 'The Killing' this last 2 hours. Reading between the lines I appear to have missed a less than stellar Taylor effort, and an out-of-character SEETHE from The Mountie.
Any more details?

Not much Alun. Pretty disappointing night of arrers.
Hobo nearly stung by a wasp the best so far.

I reckon the wasp could make the second round if it drew one of these two.
Cheers. A deadly plan by Angela Merkel's intelligence men to destabilise Hobo ????
Ovens really terrible here. Would genuinely think I would beat him 3-0 tonight.
Hobo's shirt looks black and white to us, but under infra-red it is a kaleidoscope of colours. To a wasp, Hobo basically looks like a giant orchid.
OR...a huge turd
Maybe that's why it's so interested in his shirt
Maybe that's why it's so interested in his shirt
Maybe the shirt is all part of a big new Psychedelic image he's trying to foist upon us. We'll know for certain if he starts walking on to the tunes of The Electric Prunes or similar.
If I was advising the new acid-crazed psychedelic Ovens, I'd encourage him to choose this as his mind-boggling new walk-on freakbeat anthem

He'll surely get the job done this time. I note he's odds-on for the title with the knowledgable Mumbai Underworld bookies.
Sounds like I missed nothing last night. Except tales of Willie Thorne and a canadian seethe.
I always remember hearing that Thorne used to go on about how he had hit more maxes than anybody in practice. He asked Stephen Hendry how many he had hit and Hendry replied "I stopped counting at 600". Silence from Willie.......
