Phil ‘The Power’ Taylor Wins NHS Charity Match

Elsewhere, 16 times world champion Phil ‘The Power’ Taylor beat 2-time ladies world champion Mikuru Suzuki 7-5 another online charity darts match. The pair raised £6,800 for Heroes, a charity that helps fund the NHS with £1000 put into the pot for every 180 hit during the match. The greatest darter of all time hit six of them compared to Suzuki’s four.

Last month, Taylor lost to Raymond van Barneveld, but in hitting 15 maximums between them, the retired rivals helped boost the NHS’s battle against the Covid-19 crisis by raising the sum of £15,000.

PDC Home Tour Continues

With sport still on lockdown, the PDC have organised some online darts action to help get fans through their boredom with the PDC’s first-ever home staged event. Afterall, it has now been almost two months since the last ranking tournament took place on March 15.

However, the PDC Home Tour continues to give fans and bettors something to cling on to. For those unaware of how it all works, all Tour Cardholders have been invited to take part. Gary Anderson, Daryl Gurney and Michael van Gerwen all initially declined, while Peter ‘Snakebite’ Wright and Gerwyn ‘The Iceman’ Price were both eliminated over the first two nights.

For both Gurney and Anderson, slow internet was the issue while MVG is using his time off to help out with a newborn. Gary Anderson has since fixed this issue and will now take part in the PDC’s Home Tour in one of the later dates.

Match nights pit four players against each other, chucking at their home oches to bank points in a round-robin league format that will be streamed via their webcams for bettors at bet365 who have wagered at least £1 in the previous 24 hours to watch live.

PDC Home Tour Week Three

Peter Fryers Home Tour

As we know, all PDC Tour Card holders were offered the chance to alleviate the boredom and compete in the first and hopefully only ever PDC Home Tour. It pitted four different players against each other every night over webcam footage streamed out through bet365 TV.

For a £1 bet, viewers get to watch four guys throwing for points in a round-robin format and a final table, the winner of which will move into the following round.

There were three big names missing, however, as new dad Michael van Gerwen did not take part. Neither did Gary Anderson or Daryl Gurney who, despite their sizeable bank balances, both have too poor an internet connection to maintain a stream.

Of the 32 groups, 13 have been played so far. On night 1, Peter Wright, sporting NHS tribute skull paint, was eliminated when he lost 1-5 to group winner Jamie Lewis. Gerwyn ‘The Iceman’ Price followed Snakebite out of the competition the very next night when Luke Woodhouse topped the group.

Dave Chisnall made it safely through on Night 3, and Jelle Klaasen, Jonny Clayton, Nathan Aspinall and Max Hopp, who benefitted from a hastily revised three-player league after Keegan Brown’s internet connection dropped, all join the St Helens chucker in round two.

MODUS Icons of Darts

MODUS Icons of Darts

MODUS Icons of Darts

Tough times call for exciting new measures and the Darts agency MODUS, who represent the likes of Michael van Gerwen, Fallon Sherrock, Peter Wright and Raymond van Barneveld, have come up with an ingenious way of bringing us some live darts while we wait for things to get back to normal. Yes, last week’s live darts made a bit of a comeback as the inaugural MODUS Icons of Darts Live League got underway.

The Icons of Darts format is a series of round-robin leagues that will take place daily from Monday to Saturday each week until Saturday, May 2nd when the overall champion will be announced. The players, including big names such as Paul Nicholson, Mark Webster, Andy Jenkins and Wessel Nijman, will each be competing from their own homes while streaming their play over their webcams.

Darts does at least lend itself to such a format which will help provide us with some much-needed entertainment in these weird times. Each match is best of nine legs and leading online bookmaker bet365 will be live streaming proceedings. Betway will be offering markets on the Icons of Darts tourneys. Correct Leg Score, Total 180s, Most 180s and Score After 4 Legs are all available for your entertainment.

Naturally, you need to sign up to bet365 via this link before either making a deposit or placing a bet, unless you have already done so in the last 24 hours, in which case you will be able to live stream the Icons of Darts through your various devices.

Week One

The first week of the MODUS Icons of Darts Live League finished over the weekend when David Evans became the winner of week one. Evans wasn’t even required to throw on Saturday as all players are required to take a day off out of the six and Saturday was his turn. It mattered not though as Wessel Nijman lost out to Mark Webster to on 30 points tied with Evans, who took the top spot on leg difference. Paul Nicholson finished third, ahead of Andy Jenkins.

Ten points behind, the bottom two places include Raymond van Barneveld on 10 points and Mark Webster on 8 points.

Week Two

Nijman picked up where he left off from week one on Monday night with a victory over Raymond van Barneveld. Nijman also saw off Martin Adams, Ritchie Edhouse and David Evans on a strong opening night in week two. Earlier on, Martin Adams claimed a victory over Edhouse fresh from inflicting defeat on Barney, who in turn finally got some scores on the doors by beating Ritchie Edhouse 5-4.

With the exception of Scott Mitchell, stepping in to replace Martin Adams, the same line-up as Monday goes again on Tuesday. This means that Raymond van Barneveld, Scott Mitchell, David Evans, Wessel Nijman and Ritchie Edhouse all feature in Tuesday’s Icons of Darts.

Raymond van Barneveld takes on Scott Mitchell in the first match of the night. Barney, who has tweeted that he isn’t feeling on top form, looks very out of sorts even on his home oche. To that end, we’d have to back Mitchell on this one.

Mitchell then moves on to fellow BDO man and week one winner David Evans. These two are hard to split but due to his performances last week, we’re just bout leaning towards Evans in this one. Along with Wessel Nijman, Evans has been among the standout players so far.

That, then, makes the big game of the night the 20:30 GMT match between the pair. Wessel beat David 5-4 on Monday despite missing a lot of darts and I would expect a repeat performance on Tuesday.
