We come to the Semi finals with one seed left in the competition, Wes Newton.
Order of play:
• Mervyn King Vs Brendan Dolan
• Michael Van Gerwen Vs Wes Newton
MVG had a cracking game against Andy Hamilton and he took him all the way. Brendan Dolan took out Justin Pipe 3-1 in an entertaining game, whilst Wes Newton was looking great in his victory. Mervyn King took out Robert Thornton with relative ease and is most likely to appear in the final.
Mervyn King Vs Brendan Dolan
Mervyn King went on last Friday night, and it was late. He made short work of Robert Thornton, who obviously had the Taylor hangover. It must be noted that the statistics of people winning after defeating Taylor is very low.
Brendan Dolan put in a competent performance against Justin Pipe and took his chances when he did.
Best match odds:
King – 4/7 Pinnacle
Dolan – 7/4 Blue Square
It was rumoured a lot of people had money on Dolan in Irish Bookmakers on Friday, and a joy for the payouts for punters.
Over a longer format best of 9 sets, Mervyn King has a lot more experience on the longer format and is rightly priced. King is playing his B+ darts and is not far from his A game. This is great as he is really getting back to his very best. Dolan has struggled with his maximums, whilst King got 6 in his last encounter.
King is just 4/11 to outscore Dolan on maximums at Boylesports. We are keen on taking king outright, and –1 set enhances the price to 4/5 general. It is worth taking the risk on under 30.5 legs at Evens with Blue Square as King took out Thornton in 13 legs!
Covering correct score for King, do the following:
5-1 – 13/2 Stan James
5-2 – 9/2 Ladbrokes
5-3 – 5/1 Skybet
Anyone wanting a quick return, could consider King to win the first leg at 4/5 Paddy Power!
Michael Van Gerwen Vs Wes Newton
This will be the game of the night, as MVG was taken the distance by Wes Newton and both deserve to have majors behind them.
Best match odds:
MVG – 7/9 Pinnacle
Newton – 13/10 Youwin
Newton was given a tough game by Paul Nicholson and had to make a comeback himself to eventually win the game. Van Gerwen himself was forced to a fifth set when he failed to take out the double and gave Hamilton a 160 shot, which he took out.
This game could go all the way, and Blue Square go 4/5 that the game goes beyond 31.5 games. We have strong feelings about this and it must be a recommendation. This game can go beyond the 7th set and Skybet risk a stonking 10/11 on 8 or more sets.
Recommendations:
King/Dolan
• King 4/7 Pinnacle
• King –1.5 5/6 general
• Under 30.5 legs evens Blue Square
• King to win first leg 4/5 Paddy Power
MVG/Newton
• Over 31.5 games – 4/5 Blue Square
• Over 7.5 sets – 10/11 Skybet
