I don’t like the booing. It’s not a great look.

Well don't bellow then!

I think it’s the Welsh thing more than anything.

 

[Richard_16v]

I think the booing is getting a little worse, I'm always surprised how some players just seem to get booed for no real reason

 

[Kelt]

And he's off.

WOOOOPPPPPPPAAAAAAAAAAH

 

[henry hoov3r]

Great leg at the end

 

[LtMatt]

Bit harsh on Chris to lose that first set, but price upped it in that last leg.

11 darter was timely.

Yeah they moved to Winmau I think around the time the BDO went under (Winmau used to be BDO boards).

They’re actually taking the Winmau world masters format to the PDC this year renaming their masters (it’s the next tv event I think after this one)

Winmau World Masters to return as PDC event undergoes radical rebrand

The Winmau World Masters will return to the darts calendar in 2025, as one of the Professional Darts Corporation's biggest TV events undergoes a radical rebrand.

My Dad used to be a really good player back in the day... He finished 4th in the BDO World Masters one year. He's played all the big named players, he also finished top of the BDO averages one year which got him a nice little payout.

There's always a player who ends up being the pantomime villain, used to be 'one dart' Peter Manley for years. Just there is a lot more people there now so the booing is louder

Price being a bit arrogant (certainly in his early days) became a lightening rod for it and has never really shook it off. Manley had the personality to lean into it eventually it became more friendly booing and he was a fan fave by the end, Price doesn't really have the same genial personality to pull it back round!

Price messed that one up

 

[henry hoov3r]

I remember the Peter Manley v Adrian Lewis on stage antics.

The bellow with 2 sets

 

[henry hoov3r]

They’ve played each other 15 times. Price is 14-1.

Price outscoring at the moment so he can afford to miss a few doubles. Not sure this one will last long

If Dobey ups his scoring price will miss more doubles. He is under hardly any pressure at the moment.

 

[el_dazza]

Dobey wins this imo. Price has faded badly in later stages of his last few games, Dobey can punish that.

 

[bingham67]

Dobey woken up maybe

 

[bingham67]

Big from the dobbers

 

[henry hoov3r]

Missed doubles do make it more entertaining.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Really needed that one Dobey! 2-2 and a totally different game.
