    Can't believe there's no thread on this magnificent tournament for the BDO, but its on this weekend, starting Saturday at 12pm and finishing Monday night. Every dart live on free to air Dave TV..

    Hard to look past the favorites for it, Woflie, Durrant, Waite's or Mitchell I think winner is one of them..

    Great to see BDO on TV following the recent dilemmas with Deluxe

    Have to say, I'm surprised at the quality of this production, obviously not perfect but better than any BBC coverage. Excellent commentary team too.Just a pity that the quality of darts been thrown is horrid. Painful to watch at times, but its only first round so Im confident it'll improve

    Watched a bit earlier and enjoyed it.

    Good to have some competitive darts on after the premier league.

    Dear oh, fair play to them for jazzing up the coverage but it is funny to watch, some of the walk on music is abysmal lol.

    Guy lost a dart earlier after a bounce out, took them a good minute to fish it out from the fixture below the board.

    Surprised to see Wesley Harms get beaten by a relative unknown.

    I like that its advertised as a £150K prize fund, yet £50K of that prize fund is reserved for a 9 dart finish.

    And given the quality of the darts I'd say that 50k is safe :)

    Watching O Shea and Machin and the standard is fairly average and the crowd seem subdued.
