Right got a bit of time to try and put something up for this evening and see what the views of others are. Lets hope we're all lucky and take a few quid off the bookies 
Terry Jenkins v John Part:
R1 - Jenkins bt Steve Brown 3-0
Ave: 94.31
180's: 4
HC: 60
CO %: 39%
Part bt Joe Cullen 3-0
Ave: 89.56
180's: 1
HC: 127
CO %: 56%
Opening match of the evening sees the raging bull Terry Jenkins take on the 3 time world champion John Part. Part's got his mural now so I'm not sure what he's going to use for motivation but hopefully we see a decent match. Jenks played pretty well in his opener without ever really being in a match and he's always good to watch. Part also had a relatively comfy win and will be looking for a good run here to try and climb back up the rankings. Bet I like here is the high check as Jenks and Part are 2 of my favourite players for hitting 3 figure checkouts. Part hit a 127 in his opener and while the line is slightly higher here I think this looks a fair bet.
Recommendation: 1.5pts win over 130.5 HC @ 5/6 (General)
Paul Nicholson v Robert Thornton:
R1 - Nicholson bt Co Stompe 3-0
Ave: 87.95
180's: 0
HC: 106
CO %: 47%
Thornton bt Magnus Caris 3-0
Ave: 99.06
180's: 4
HC: 150
CO %: 53%
Forum favourite Nicholson takes to the stage v one of the form players in the PDC over the past 6 months. I don't think he was that impressive in his win over Stompe but he did finish well which is usually a strong part of his game. Thornton on the other hand had the 2nd highest average of the round in only dropping 1 leg to Magnus Caris and was really impressive whilst being under very little pressure. Again the bet I like here is the high check as Thornton is capable but Nicholson often hits them due to his high quality of finishing.
Recommendation: 2pts win over 130.5 HC @ 9/10 (Boils)
Phil Taylor v Jerry Hendricks:
R1 - Taylor bt Michael Mansell 3-0
Ave: 93.92
180's: 1
HC: 76
CO %: 53%
Hendricks bt Wayne Jones 3-0
Ave: 87.5
180's: 3
HC: 156
CO %: 43%
Last match of the night sees the 15 times world champion Taylor take on the debutant Hendricks. Taylor did enough in his opening win but was never going to be flash I didn't think v an opponent who was completely outmatched. He's got a nice draw to the last 16 and he'd expect to come through this with no dramas. Hendricks looked ok in beating Jones culminating in a spectacular 156 outshot for the match but this is a significant rise in class for him and if he wins a set I think he's done well. 4-0 at odds on aint my cup of tea usually and unless something can persuade me otherwise it won't be here either.
Recommendation: No Bet
Summary: All about the big outshots for me tonight. If any of them go in its fair to say there will be a roar in Hibee Towers All views and bets from the regulars are as welcome as ever and hopefully we have a good nights darts and banter on here

Bit of both wisewords.
Still the best in the world, but nowhere near as dominant

Lori - I don't think I want to know really...I'm devastated at my stupidity in just wanting to enjoy a corker of a match without fannying around I/R on B/F.
£12K green on Nico (outright) and I'm a rag-arsed pauper of a gambler!

Had to laugh earlier, most of the crowd were singing and pointing while ignoring the action. Then comes the stand up if you love the darts chant.
Well, you'd only have had a very short time to lay it before the hooverers screwed you, so probably didn't cost you a huge amount - and Thorn played so bad that if you covered him on the outright instead, he actually drifted.
His standard dropped, his best still the best but has few more average days. Not quite as great under pressure as at peak esp on the doubles. Rest have improved too for me.
That said hes won more big tournies than anyone else again this season.

I can't stand false eyelashes ... horrible oon girls
Also few more players arent beaten before they get on stage nowadays
Just had a flashback Hib - remember when we were a bit obsessed with the slaggy bird Mark Webster was seeing when he was in the BDO? He's no longer with her sadly.
I know what you mean shalke but nothing is worse than tattooed eyebrows
sky is about 4 seconds behind the scoring on 365 !!
Its probably his dopey Rodney Trotter looking face
Lori - a couple of ton I suppose and that's sizeable for me 
Still got a few others (11 at the moment after nabbing a decent I/R price with Anderson and Chisnall who's surprisingly big) onside for 4 figures but nothing as big as Nico...all hell will break loose with the markets if we can get this fat fcuk beaten

Nice to see Uncle John taking time out to lend a helping hand to the up and coming young darters. Priceless advice.
Am sick to announce I've had to back Jenkins at 55s the way this part of the draw is panning out.

He's playing well just now, not had that bit of luck with draws and running into a good thing
He has Hammer, then the winner of Thornton and Taylor.
On paper that's a really tough draw, but I'm not convinced by any of the other three.

A very good choice Ron.
Even Lennon liked that one.

any basketball tips for tonight,myself i quite fancy boston/milwaukee to go over 190?
on the darts front i think taylor should change that shirt,it`s doing nothing for his aerodynamics

Have not got into the hoops for a couple of years.... I did notice that ESPN America finally got coverage though, so might get into it very shortly.
I managed to get £16 on Jenks at 120 and got my stake back at 60, so I'm happy with that one for now...the KEY is hoping Taylor goes out SOON - maybe I should have kept the Jenkins bet a bit longer?
Right I'm off this is boring, darts isn't for me when i don't have a bet on.
Take it easy and have a good christmas

Can't see Taylor beating Thornton if he plays like this
Take care uws.
Ron/alun , purely because I'm a nosey parker, where do I find this song list/thing
Looked in chit chat and can't find anything, and need to cure my noseyness!

PS - thanks to getting some very tasty prices about Rand (even £2 at 1000) I've shovelled a load off him at 100 and he's still running for me for 4 figures.
Green for minimum £28 at the moment, so I can play with that on some more of the rags too
How's everyone else's books looking?
Hope there aren't any savage reds next to the big names

Any chance of a link, Betfair's search is very unhelpful in such matters.
This is pish and Taylor is there for the taking again this year.
Yes Hunter I do actually. I remember tracking her down on Bebo and thanking her bf for landing me a touch at 12/1 when he won Lakeside. Think her name was Lorraine and she was meant to be a fair player herself

they don't show the averages when they're this poor
http://live.dartsdata.com/MatchView.aspx?MatchId=34293
Can't win this event on showing to date. Won't even make it through the half of the draw on a 90 average

he'll raise his game when he needs to. One thing you can be sure of.
Like against Chizzy and Webster?
I hope he wins it. At 52 that's a hell of an accomplishment.

Bit of an anti-climax after the previous entertainment.
yeah exactly last 2 years people said he'd raise it when he had too and couldnt. I fear the same is true this year
The draw been kind in 2 respects, easy-ish draws round 1 and 2 and his 3rd round game before xmas
4 slugfest pre-xmas would have been tough going, do think the matches back to back catch up a little more with him now.
Hes still the man to beat but couldnt make a case for backing him on this evidence

Will you all be wearing your Psychedelic Shirts tomorrow night?
Whats happens if its a draw on 180s. What will Betfair do? Refund the stakes?
I dont think he has the same self assurance these days
asked the man for his average then slates him for it!
So the dead heat rule means that Betfair gets all the stakes?
Can't believe he said the 'm' word in an interview again! I AM a millionaire...

oh yea
some people need to be a little less sensitive I reckon
mardle bang on for a change,theres no way taylor will win this tourney,thank god,cocky ****
seemed like an awkward interview. think taylor played down a little there, might take the pressure him off a bit
Bricks, half of your stake wins at odds taken and the other half loses
Logical move seems a lay of Taylor and back of Barney judging by the first week
MArdle hyping the fact that Taylors average was below Thorntons. However Thornton was playing someone who did not lose 12 legs in a row and helped to keep the averages high
sorry guys missed wat was sayed as turned off wen taylor 3-1 up 2 legs up. wat was said?
Said Thornton will beta Taylor is they both play like they did in rd 2
