Well after what could only be described as a horrorshow yesterday we're back for more punishment today. First 2 quarter finals on the menu and hopefully we can find a winner or 2 to get back on track.
Ray Barneveld v Simon Whitlock:
R3 - Barney bt Gary Anderson 4-0
Ave: 93.35
180's: 4
HC: 52
CO%: 29%
Whitlock bt Dave Chisnall 4-3
Ave: 91.07
180's: 4
HC: 152
CO%: 35%
Opening quarter final sees the born again Barneveld take on the aussie Simon Whitlock. Barneveld played tremendously in his opener but since then I thought he was very patchy v Dolan and played no more than ok v an extremely under performing Gary Anderson. I think he should be fav here but don't know if I would back him at 4/6. Whitlock again has played pretty well but at times he has been very erratic and there may be more than 1 reason for that. Lots of rumours flying around on twitter yesterday that he was almost not trying to hit 180's but who knows if thats true or not. Best of 9 now and I think it should be a decent match. Bet I like is the high check here as Whitlock especially is tremendous at the big outs. Hes had 16 consecutive matches hitting a ton plus finish and I think that may continue here. Barney also loves hitting the 156 out so hopeful in a long match they get plenty of chances.
Recommendation: 2pts HC over 131 @ 8/13 (Boils)
Phil Taylor v Andy Hamilton:
R3 - Taylor bt Robert Thornton 4-0
Ave: 97.18
180's: 2
HC: 131
CO%: 55%
Hamilton bt Terry Jenkins 4-1
Ave: 99.47
180's: 2
HC: 130
CO%: 52%
Taylor has yet to hit top form yet but he's had a nice draw thus far. However I feel he will have to up his game a bit as along with Van Gerwen I think Hamilton has been the best player of the remaining 8. Hes never beaten Taylor on tv but probably should have when he blew a 9-5 lead the last time they met. However Taylor was tremendous in those last 5 legs and Hamilton didnt do too much wrong. I fancy a decent match here but I've been wrong before and I think Hamilton may push him close. The bet I like is Hamilton on the handicap as +2.5 is a decent start. If he plays as he has been I think he can go close but not sure if he has the nerve to win the match straight up.
Recommendation: 2pts win Andy Hamilton +2.5 sets @ Evs (General)
Summary: Hopefully the 2 bets I like today can help get us back on the road to profit. Really like the look of the Hamilton handicap bet and hopefully the high check in the Whitlock match obliges as it normally does.
Best of luck to all and hopefully we can have some fun banter and winning bets as usual on here

couple of hours wait for the basketball,take orlando/washington over 182,see ya all later
this is the bit i hate when taylorssays how good the guy he just thrashed is.
Phil telling us Barney was in tears. Hadnt noticed that Phil thanks
He wants to die in his sleep? Eh??

Phil telling us that Barney told him he wanted to die in his sleep after losing a match.
You don't get better psychomolomogimimcal analysis that that from Phil
Don't think he has lost a semi final. He is through to his 19th semi and won 18. 18 out of 18 then?
I don't believe Taylor has ever lost in a semi final of a WC
agree Cosmo , only lost in finals or quarters earlier IMO
they get so many stats wrong it is unreal
they get so many stats wrong it is unreal
Ahh could have picked up Dave wrong. Thats even more impressive then
To be fair when I go I hope its in my sleep as well 
ive never heard barney say he wants to die in sleep, if hes only said that in private to phil its a bit below the belt saying it on air
Sky utter desperation to show this again.
Why can't we just have an hour of Rod delivering pearls of wisdom?

nice of him share a personal conversation hes had with barnie live on sky tv
i didntrealise barney had been apart from silvia, hes obviously getting his rocks blown on a regular basis and hes become a happy bunny
Don't think I can watch Barney being bummed by Taylor on Sunday , it will send him over the edge for sure

mind games.
I want to die under a pile of knackered walk-on babes personally
never mind watching this again, best match I've ever seen by some distance
They never show the whole leg!! So annoying.
That coverage seems remarkably dated given it is was only a few years back.

Taylor couldn't have came across as a bigger kn0b if he tried in that interview.He looked visibly angry because Dave said Barney wasn't scared of playing him and then proceeeds to lose the plot.No class.

Totally agree. Taylor worried.
barney cant win, they say hes a loser when says cant beat phil and now says doesnt fear him and really means he does
Come on Rodders, how about a dissertation on Venn Diagrams?
then we see powers post match interview in the aisle !! not sat up in the chair , LoL
Time for some college football, gonna have a few quid on Rutgers
He was like a kid.Hopefully Barney ignores his trash Talk and plays the Board.
I dunno who I dislike more as a person taylor or Barney. Probably the 2 best players ever but as people hmmm
anyone got the answer about barney saying he doesnt want to wake up, has he said that in public or was it phil stooping to a new low ?
I actually dislike Barney more. I think Taylor has more excuse to be an idiot as he's never really known what it's like to get beat.
Taylor does seem worried to be bringing all that stuff up.
Taylor really is a thoroughly odious individual
I thought he sounded worried too. Went straight on the attack.
Barney been acting like he's been hypnotised this entire tourney. I don't mean the darts, just the odd gaze and attitude
Taylor was having a few pops at Mardle too, was seething tonight.
You would honestly think Barney had said Taylor is convicted Sex offender the way he reacted.Agree he did look worried.
Is it possible for them both to lose? I'd actually like it more if Taylor beats barney and then MVG just destroys him in the final
Agree very very low of Taylor if that was said in private. Dave just shiit-stirring basically with the fear question though, naughty!

He does seem a different person. He's been hypnotized and believes he's unbeatable now?!
dont rule out Bingo yet, better signs last night.
Time for emmerdale on Sky plus life in the fast lane for me
I think Adrian 'Bingo' Lewis will reach the final.
I've been guilty of calling hamilton a battler on here, and no, i wasn't on drugs at the time. Wtf was that tonight, a total no show, very disappointing indeed.
I personally think Taylor will beat rvb but showed a complete lack of class there. He should have just said Rvb be scared Sunday morning and left it like that.
I long for the day that MVG, with that Del Potro-like voice of his, tells them both to go **** themselves.
I've almost given up Lori might just back favs blind and then watch the rags win
Barney should ask for Siliva to be his walk on girl. Just to put the fear of the risen christ into Phil
I bet Phil never wants to die in his sleep, he's too busy dreaming about money.
