I like this tournament and the unpredictable nature of the draw. Here's hoping someone unexpected comes out on top

Looking forward to this always a fun tournament to watch.

Steve Lennon looks to have a negotiable route to 4th round

O'Connor is probably favorite against Sulojvic

Keane Barry could have a tricky tie if James Hurrell makes it through

Dylan Slevin has Aaron Monk

Disaster for Lennon

That's really bad from Lennon

Same old story, absolutely terrible on doubles on the big stage. It has to be a mental thing.

Dillonb3

Willie O'Connor bet 6 nil by Suljovic. Suljovic took his time arriving at the board

O'Connor also loses the semi final run from his ranking

Slevin knocked out by Woodhouse

>O'Connor also loses the semi final run from his ranking

dropped seven spots from 42nd to at least 49th losing that £18.5k from his rankings

KevIRL

Mansell through

KevIRL

Keane Barry wins also

Dillonb3

Keane Barry vs Kim Huybrechts

Mickey Mansell vs Chris Dobey this evening

TheChrisD

James Wade v Luke Littler

oh boy

KevIRL

Graham Usher beats Ryan Searle 10-9. Big upset there considering Searle's pro tour form this year so far

KevIRL

Keane Barry 5-0 up v Kim hybrechts but at now it's 6-4

Dillonb3

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121839193#Comment_121839193

Searle was 8-2 down and managed to go 9-8 up. Usher broke his throw in deciding leg

KevIRL

Keane wins 10-6. Good to see him maintaining his form from the dev tour last weekend

Dillonb3

Danish player Dreu Reus bet Jose De Sousa.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Jose lose his card, he doesn't look like he's enjoying his darts

KevIRL

Mvg beaten by mensur

Mickey Mansell well beaten by dobey

Dillonb3

Littler is tearing Wade to shreds. Finishing is mental

Dillonb3

Schindler puts out Price

Dillonb3

Keane Barry draws Ryan Miekle

roosterman71

Barry beats Miekle 10-3

TheChrisD

Keane gets Rob Cross for tonight 😬

Dillonb3

Class finishing from lukeman against Anderson

hawkwing

Hoping for anything but a Cross/Humphries final but it's looking more likely. Cross taking an age to throw against Evans trying to slow him down :-(

hawkwing

Delighted for Ricky

TheChrisD

Wow, what a match. The heat still on fire; no fairytale first major for Littler.

hawkwing

Great game, don't like the way Littler has started turning his back on the winners, 3rd time in a row i think now,crowd won't be long turning against him if he keeps it up.

TheChrisD

Dimi vs Humph for the title

Deeper Blue

Shame to see Evans get destroyed in the SF, although not surprising

Presume Humphries will have too much for Dimitri

hawkwing

Fk me, never saw a final end like that!!

Deeper Blue

Great final, Dimi looked like he'd bottled it, fair dues to Humphries trying to quieten the booing

buster180

Dimi has had a few to many pints!!

He is always that way, interviews that veer from endearing to toe-curlingly embarrassing.

Deeper Blue

I'm a fan of Dimitri but he's the king of cringe
