Epic match!

Best event in the PDC calendar. Should be on ITV4 rather than Sky Sports.

Comedy jobbers. That's why the WC is so awesome.

Ha ha, time for Belliboy!

>chinese doubling

>Crowd chants "Morgan Freeman" everytime this guy throws
Well, at least it's not Yaya Kolo.

First Morgen Freeman, now Willem Dafoe is back. Also: /180/ now my personal blog, nice.

I came here to laugh at Canada.

What'sthe procedure in case of a tie, i.e. what happens if Switzerland beats Japan 4-3?

The rules just say "leg difference", however that could also easily be the same. Maybe it's points scored, or seeding or something. I doubt they will actually play a tiebreaker, especially since a three way-tie would be possible.

>>149155155
Should have just forfeited instead, actually embarrassing.

Guys, I am getting the impression that Finland might actually not be Winland after all.

Evening session bump

>Scotland v Czech Republic
>Philippines v Sweden

>>149161319
