My favourite player is myself.

This is a game to be played in cheap pubs, not a sport.

When I was a university student, I used to play a lot in cheap pubs with friends. Nowadays I rarely play it with amateur meteorology fans on special meetings (once a year on even more rarely). But last week, I bought a small and cheap darts table with my wife, brought to our cellar to play there. A perfect place for it.

Good mod, finally a good reason to aim for double 18.

Darts are not uncommon in Italy, but I don't see any Italian flags on the championship name list :(

Lot's of people from England though, I suppose those dartboards in pubs are not just for show.

Hahaha, MvG strikes back.

@Overdrijf: which Dutch player do you cheer for? Netherlands is the strongest non-British country in this game.

I don't know, I don't follow the competition too much. I just never was much of a sports watcher (although the last few years I did start watching Age of Empires 2 as an e-sport, something I thought I'd never ever do because it's not real sports, but ones you know what to watch for there is so much happening at all times that it's actually pretty interesting). Barney/Raymond van Barneveld (recently retired again) was the one that really popularized darts as a TV and pro sport here, it's a pretty recent development, but then again every time he made the news he sounded like a bit of a diva, going on about how super important it was that he was playing in new shirts with wider sleeves or some "look at me I'm a real sportsman" stuff. Co Stompé always comes across as a nice fellow, but he never wins, so uhhh... Michael van Gerwen?

Where's the real MvG? What we saw from him in Premier League was probably most demotivated and convulsive gameplay of darts history. <20% checkout efficiency from the "World Number One"? Bah...

You can say that Dart Maul will lose, he plays very badly.

Cool, didn't know this poll existed. Although I'm not as good as the guys on television, I weekly play darts in a local competition. So I follow it quit closely. I even played a couple of the players mentioned (Van Gerwen, Anderson) many years ago.

But for now I have to go for the most sensible answer which obviously is Littler. Although due to his long career without a World Championship and his recent resurgence I also hope Wade will make it far this tournament.
