For those of you who want to watch the Darts there is a Stream available but it takes a bit of work to get it going. You have to do the following:

Open internet explorer

Click on internet options

go to........ CONNECTIONS

click on LAN settings

click by. PROXY SERVER then fill in 83.116.80.28 and under port fill in 3128

Click on OK to save the settings

Go to http://sbs6.crossmediaventures.com/darts7/

It will be a slow connection but wait for the box to appear and click to download the license

If you get an error message 'No DNS Records' just try refreshing the page until the page loads

Open up windows media player go to file > open url and type http://81.23.249.10/cross04 and then ok

The stream should then be working

Then still in windows media player gp to tools > manage licenses and back up the license

Finally untick the box in internet explorer, internet options>LAN settings>proxy server and close internet explorer

It works fine for me. If anyone was using this to watch the Masters of Darts earlier on in year then you may not need to get another licence because I didnt have to. Anyway Enjoy the Darts

If you want to make the screen bigger then open the above URL using Windows Media Player. You can then watch it twice the size or full screen.

In Media Player just go to File->Open URL and paste the URL in.

Should be a good tournament with all the big boys playing in it.

Mine seems fine. It buffered once or twice but that was it.

The first round group stage has been completed at the IDL. The second round is also a group stage and because Phil Taylor only finished second in his group we have been given a group that contains Phil Taylor, Raymond Van Barneveld and Michael Van Gerwen. Poor old Daryl Fitton makes up the fourth player. That is one hell of a group. Barney plays Taylor tonight.

Ronde: 3 - Poule I
Gary Anderson
Gary Robson
Martin Adams
Mark Dudbridge

Ronde: 3 - Poule J
Michael van Gerwen

Phil Taylor

Ronde: 3 - Poule K
Adrian Lewis
Tony O' Shea
Wayne Mardle
Simon Whitlock

Ronde: 3 - Poule L
James Wade
Mark Webster
Tony Eccles
Scott Waites

Tonights fixtures are as follows: (Above times are Dutch I think so take an hour away)

Taylor just did a 9 darter against Barneveld

Kingp35

Great stuff from Taylor. Hits a 9 dart finish and wins 7-4.

He won a car for it and gave it away to his friends who recently crashed their van. Fair play to the man!

Kingp35

What a performance from Gary Anderson. He beats Martin Adams 7-1 with a 108.9 average. Adams averaged 105 as well. Anderson couldnt miss.

NeoRox

Thats his second 108 average in the tournament so far. An interesting opponent for Taylor at some stage me thinks.

Did anybody else have trouble with their Live Stream last night? Mine wouldnt work after the Barney against Fitton match.

So Van Gerwen finally shows us what he is capable of as he beats Phil Taylor 7-6 to knock Taylor out of the tournament. Sadly for MvG it was too late so Fitton and Barney go through. Martin Adams crashed out of the tournament as he lost to Gary Robson who sneaks through. Gary Anderson and Adrian Lewis both go through as they continue their good form, as does Tony O' Shea. The young Welsh man Mark Webster continues to be the surprise package of the tournament as he wins again to top his group for the second time.

Last nights results:

Tony O' Shea 7-5 Wayne Mardle
Michael van Gerwen 7-6 Phil Taylor
Raymond van Barneveld 7-6 Darryl Fitton
Adrian Lewis 7-4 Simon Whitlock
Gary Anderson 7-3 Mark Dudbridge
Gary Robson 7-5 Martin Adams
James Wade 7-4 Scott Waites
Mark Webster 7-4 Tony Eccles

Friday Nights Quarter-Finals: (Dutch Times)

Quarter Final Results

Gary Anderson 6-3 James Wade
Tony O'Shea 6-4 Raymond van Barneveld
Adrian Lewis 6-2 Darryl Fitton
Mark Webster 6-2 Gary Robson

Would like to see Gary Anderson win this as he has been so consistent from the start.

Kingp35

Interesting to see that 3 of the 4 semi-finalists are from the BDO. Young Mark Webster looks a great prospect, there really is some great young players coming through at the moment.

Luck of the draw really the way the initial groups went. I would really like to see both organisations getting back together before Taylor gets too old though,or failing that more mixed televised tournaments. Straight knockout though not groups.

Webster is good allright, but I think O'Shea will just pip him 9-6 or 9-7, especially with the week he is having. I don't think Lewis has the consistency yet for this distance and will be beaten easily by Anderson (he'll probably win now after that comment)

O' Shea is getting hammered. Webster 7-1 up at the break.

NeoRox

ah well such is darts

Kingp35

Anderson gives Lewis a right hammering, 9-1.

Kingp35

Gary Anderson wins the final with a 13-9 defeat of Mark Webster. It was a very enjoyable final as both players played some good darts. Im happy for Anderson as he has been very consistent all week and has played some great stuff. Webster looks a great prospect and I'm sure we will be seeing plenty more of him.

Congratulations Gary Anderson.

NeoRox

Good game allright, glad Gary Anderson won.
