Raymond Van Barneveld v Simon Whitlock

Semi final of the PDc in Darts.

I got on with Barneveld 4-2 up in sets. Odds were 1.26 hoping Barney can take two of the next four.

It would seem Brett Lee has grown a beard and a pony tail and taken up darts!!

Barney got the chance in that set to go 5-2 up but instead it's 4-3. Barney with the throw.

Takes the first leg nicely. A break would settle the nerves! This Brett Lee Geezer looks quite useful though! He's missing a few doubles now though. But another chance wasted by Barney followed by a rubbish start to the 3rd leg.

Mind you now Barney can't hit a treble!! Break to Whitlock may come here! Nope missed the double tops! Barney back in but he fluffs it! Whitlock gets the break for a 2-0 lead!

Whitlock takes the set!! That's sport for you Barney should have had 5-2 then suddenly it's 4-4!!
Whitlock has the throw this set and Barney's trebles are nowhere to be seen so I've switched as I would have Whitlock as the slight favourite not Barney at 1.89!!

-£99.39 Barney +£41.56 Brett

There's the 1st leg Whitlock now a break please! Here's a chance ...... 2-0 Whitlock!! Now bring this set home!! Boom!!! 5-4 Whitlock!!

Whitlock has a chance of an early break!!! Ooofff :-( Barney misses his double so Whitlock in again!! Yess!!
1-0 against the throw!!

Barney fighting back though!! There's the break back! 1-1 Maybe should have greened when I had the chance but all the momentum was with Whitlock and Barney looked like he was on the ropes. Let's hope for another break here then. 2-1 Barney. Whitlock makes it 2-2 Barney going to have to hold here P-R-E-S-S-U-R-E!!!

LOL Barney having a great leg!! Now I'm really regretting not getting out! Flip flop again. 5-5

Uh -oh poor start from Whitlock. Pulling it back now though. Phew 1-0 Whitlock. Barney really on fire now! Oh he's missed given Whitlock a slim chance... No Barney back in and finishes it this time. 1-1

Whitlock back in the groove now with a 180... lol and Barney with a 180!! Whitlock blown it!!! Barney handed it right back OH MY GOD!!!! 2-1 Whitlock! Barney Barney Barney!!!

Whitlock Wins it!! Brett Lee is in the Final!
