Oh yes! It's not Xmas until you hear the B&H induced roar from Russ Brey and the dulcid Geordie ramblings of Sid Waddell.

Looks like a decent night tonight, Dennis, Lewis, Barney and Klaasen. Expect an upset from one of these matches, here's hoping it's Lewis.

Shock result tonight - Kevin "the artist" Painter beats defending champ Raymond van Barneveld!

Considering that Barney has been suffering with flu and Manley said it was boiling on stage I thought there might be an upset.

Painter's a top player though. Met him at the UK Open a few years back when he got to the QF's, nice bloke.

The interview with Manley after his game last night gave away his over confidence. I still thought he'd win, but his big mouth set himself up for a big fall.

What a week for the lad though, comes in as a qualifier and now faces Taylor or Mardle in the semi.

[GLENRED]

I hope he gets taylor tht would be a great game

[Vette_1978]

Well I never! Saw Taylor go 2-0 up very easily and flicked about a bit, just checked and Mardle has it back to 3-3. Another shock on the cards?

[seasonal central]

What a game!

Absolutely superb stuff! Looks like I'll have to get the Hawaiian shirt out for tomorrow evening.

Two excellent semis tonight.

Shepherd's style vaguely reminds me of Jocky Wilson.

[Vette_1978]

Bit gutted by the semi's, I'd rather have seen a Painter v Mardle final - but Painter never turned up and I think Mardle was still recovering from his Taylor match.

Nevermind, tomorrow night will be a massive occasion for Kirk. And his interview afterwards he looks so confident that he can beat Part you just never know.

I would liked to have had a £10 on shephard to reach the final anyone know what his odds were at the start of the comp?
