Caporegime
Christmas is finally here 
The start of the world darts marks the start of christmas to me like nothing else. Cue 3 weeks of top darts, drunk fans, silly costumes and mocking chants along the lines of "Boring boring tables", followed by such retorts as "We pay your benefits".
MVG is the shortest price he's ever been this year and it's hard to see past him, although his record in this is nowhere near as good as his form over the last couple of years would suggest. His record this year has been mind blowing. He's won all the below just this year

I think his only real competitor is recent double world champ Gary Anderson, although I think even he may find beating MVG a task too far this year. MVG to cruise to an easy title win for me.
I just hope it's a good tourney with plenty of 3 figure averages and at least a couple of magic 9 darters. Kicks off on sky tonight at 7pm.
