    Smith was terrible. I don't think I've ever seen him play well on telly, he must do well on the floor events to maintain his top 32 status.

    Is Pietersen the first black player to play at a World Championships?

    what's everyone's opinion on Dave Clark?

    Personally I cant stand him, he's extremely patronising and does a lot of sh*t stirring.

    He had no clue how to respond to John Part's rant there anyway

    John Part was a bit angry there about the murals of ex champions on the walls of Ally Pally and he not 1 of them despite having won the PDC version twice and also been the winner of the first World Championship held in the Ally Pally venue. He made a valid point the man. Lots of talk every year about this Joe Cullen but I think he's another player who'll fade off the scene in a few more years.

    Taylor takes the first set 3-1 despite playing mediocre enough. Mickey Mansell really suffering with the nerves up on stage but it's not easy having to play the 15 times World Champion and all the publicity that goes with it.

    Still playing darts but failed to qualify for this year's World Championship and as far as I'm aware if he wants to retain his PDC tour card for 2013 he has to qualify via the PDC school events in January.

    3-0 win for Taylor but not an impressive performance by any means. He plays Jerry Hendricks in the 2nd round. Max Hopp v Denis Ovens last game on. I think the young German will win here against a fading force that is Ovens.

    1st set for the young German but he made hard work out of it against a struggling Denis Ovens.

    A bit of an improvement from Ovens in the 2nd set ties up the game at 1 set each. The winner of this meets Adrian Lewis in the 2nd round and judging by the fare on offer Lewis won't have to hit any great heights to beat any of these 2!

    This is painful viewing, if ever there was a game you didn't want to go the full distance it's this one.

    Brutal game to watch,I've seen a lot better down my local!

    Just the 1 session tomorrow evening with Brendan Dolan,Andy Hamilton,Barney and Gary Anderson all making their debuts in the 1st round. I reckon Dolan and Anderson will win their respective games. Hamilton will be favourite to beat James Richardson but this player knocked out Barney last year so Hamilton will need to be on his guard. Barney has a very tough game IMO against the young and improving Michael Smith. This Smith lad can average in the high 90's/low 100's,an off day for Barney could prove costly!

    Very quiet on here.

    Hopefully we are in for a good nights darts, this championships hasn't really caught fire yet but hopefully we'll see lots of 180s and maybe a 9 darter tonight.
