    What a game. Cracking effort from Reyes, gutted he didn't take it to another set.

    That was some game. Reyes with an unbelievable average especially with his terrible first set

    Hopefully Reyes can kick on after that because even with MVG hitting outshots Reyes still was smiling and enjoying himself
    A likeable guy

    Semis could be

    RVB vs MVG
    Anderson vs Wright

    The tournament is wide open now that MVG is not hammering players and RVB playing very well

    Phenomenal match. Reminded me a lot of when the crowd turned on MVG when Peter Wright started throwing some lovely darts against him a couple of years back. He's probably beating anybody else with those darts.

    Reyes showed last night that to compete with MvG you have to go up to his level because it's very unlikely he'll come down to yours.

    True

    He was rattled a few times in the Reyes match but it will take some performance to stop him.

    Missed the start but from what am told I haven't missed much and then to finally sit down to watch the tie of the tournament so far between MVG and Reyes amazing 'if you love the darts stand up' 'if you love the darts stand up' 'if you love the darts stand up' 'if you love the darts stand up'

    The finishing from Hopp is letting him down.

    Can anyone tell me why Klassen is such a heavy favourite to beat Dolan today?
    I don't see it personally

    Klaasen is ranked 10th. Dolan 23rd.
    If both play at their peak, Klaasen wins.

    Semi-finalist last year too so he's no stranger to getting a result on that stage.
    Dolan may win, wouldn't be a massive shock but it would be seen as a bit of an upset.

    Wade is playing out his skin, will find himself in the final if he can keep this standard

    The pace of this will hardly suit Klassen

    Dolan throws quickly enough but takes forever to collect his darts and get to the oche to throw. Klassen has his darts out and is back past the oche before Dolan has even approached it.

    Klaasen not even playing well here and is comfortable. Dolan has to up his game big time.

    I do stay away from betting. I haven't placed a bet in I don't know how long.
    Not for real money anyway!
