Sadly Dave missed his advertised return match due to a disgusting cold (but he will be playing next week!). This meant the players for the evening were Peter, Casablanca Mike, Rushers and Doddy.
What an exciting evening it was! After a couple of flips the teams panned out as Pete and Ian ‘v’ Doddy and CM. We launched straight in to the games and immediately Pete and Ian seemed to be doing rather well with trebles galore.
We had a winning streak that lasted half way through the evening, for a minute or two I thought this was the way it would continue for the rest of the night, but as is quite often the case in the hut (and as predicted by Doddy to a despondent CM) it would be ‘a game of two halves’, and it was!
The next four games all went to the two Mikes giving us a final score line of: PI 1234 / 5678 DCM.
Notable Events:
In the first few games it was noted that Pete and Ian couldn’t be bothered with single numbers, preferring trebles on most occasions. The same could be said of the opposition in the later games.
There were some excellent ‘replies’ on a number of occasions as all hopes of a score on a quickly opened number were dashed by the opposition with a single dart.
Peter managed a scoring double treble (16s I think) putting them nicely back in a game they were losing.
A lot of bulls and semis were produced by all involved.
Ian and Pete nearly stole game 7 on bulls and semis, being 200+ they decided to go for the middle and collateral and it almost paid off with a swift succession of semis, bulls and bull-semi turns. Casablanca sealed the game with a bull. We all agreed it was incredibly close and one of the tensest games we had played for a long time.
Doddy and Pete had some stonking runs of darts and I have accordingly awarded them joint MOTM.
Bull Wars: Peter 3, Ian 3, CM 3, Doddy 2.
Chart Changes: None! We all go down a little bit except Doddy who gains the best part of 1%.
What will happen next week?
Game On!
