    Streamed through LIVEPDC and a few bookies sites.

    Has this always been the format? Looks like a glorified players championship played over a weekend and streamed online.

    I hope its not the event that looks like its from a community hall or leisure centre

    The one that is held in a community hall is the Gibraltar Darts trophy.
    It's the one Taylor supposedly cheated at a few years ago...judge for yourselves whether it's in or out...

    Mensur is on a bit of a roll the last few months. He's an interestting fella to watch...no harm for him to be mixing it with the usual heavyweights (no pun intended!).

    Happy for Kim Huybrechts, been tipping him each way in tournaments for a while now, even though its not a big tournament it will set him up well for the coming months. Definite major winner this lad. He's got a place in the GSOD with this win. Wright was 5-2 up in the final :eek:

    I watched this last night on Livepdc website. Really enjoyed it. Some great games and great atmosphere in the crowd. Fair play to Huybrechts, he was dead and buried at 5-2 down but produced some great darts to win it.

    I think the PL wildcards should be based on who the player brings along with them! Kim, Wade(his missus is 1 of the walk on girls) & White(his daughter in law's jebs are class) would all be guaranteed to be in :D
