    Good win for Wade but never troubled by a poor Hudson.

    Hard to believe Hudson is only 28!

    Jesus.

    Jesus.

    Winstanley has a rival for the oldest player in the game!

    Caven v Bowles up next. Caven should win this.

    All jokes aside but what percentage of the crowd here are genuine darts fans? There seems to be a good few work xmas party crews there tonight,their more interested in getting tanked up and making a show of themselves on national TV than following the darts!

    Caven had an 11 darter and a few 180s yet still lost first leg. That would upset the strongest characters. Bowles looks very solid, never saw him before, apparently shares the record for the furthest someone has gone in the UK Open after coming through pub qualifiers.

    Surprised at this Bowles lad,a very good player. Caven didn't do much wrong in that 1st set and still lost.

    He does.

    Peter Wrights is very nice too. Just looks natural and unforced.

    Can't beat James Wade's though, I could watch him all night.

    I like Beaton, Barney and the Count. So very gentle, strangely in the case of Ted Hankey.

    Great checkout by Caven, had to get it with Bowles on d20 and 2-2, at a vital time

    Some great commentary.

    Bowles had 102 with two darts and Pyke announced that "he still has a chance"...eeeehhhh, no he didn't...

    Well done to the qualifier John Bowles,a brilliant victory and a 2nd round game against Gary Anderson to look forward to now as well as £10,000 prize money guaranteed for reaching the 2nd round,a great night over all for Bowles!

    Really enjoyed that game. Great stuff from Bowles, delighted he won it.

    I'm happy Webster is back throwing good darts and Wade cruised through.

    lads haven't caught up on any of the darts yet, has there been any big name exits so far in round one?

    cheers

    Bowles has a super throwing action with head and shoulders rock steady. Good to see new faces winning

    Off the top of my head the only seeds to go out so far are Wayne Jones, Andy Smith, Denis Ovens and Jamie Caven

    defo, the one game i saw last night and it was a really good game, it deserved to go to a 5 setter , bowles looks a really good player, caven played quite well but just came up against a guy playing really solid stuff

    hope barney hasn't peaked too soon, was awesome in the first round, will be interesting to see how taylor, wade and MVG start , its a very open tournament this year , stamina will possibly be a problem for phil taylor this year

    You're right, for some reason I had in my head that Ovens lost but he beat Max Hopp. Looking forward to King v Winstanley tonight.

    Should be a good game and was the game along with Baxter v Priestley that stood out for me when I saw the draw.

    Handy enough win for Steve Beaton there. I've always liked Beaton, hopefully he will do something this year.
