THE bottom two have gone and now it's the race for the play-offs as the Premier League Darts hits Sheffield.
Dave Chisnall and James Wade will both play twice tonight – including against each other in the final match – and I fancy Wade at 7-5 with bet365 to get the better of Adrian Lewis in the opener.
The unstopabble Michael van Gerwen landed the German Masters title at the weekend as he continues his incredible form and can bag victory at 2-5 with StanJames when he takes on Stephen Bunting.
Raymond van Barneveled is aiming for a repeat of his stunning win over Phil Taylor from a few weeks back and the 180s should be flying in when big hitters Chisnall and Anderson do battle. Over 6.5 maximums pays 4-6 at Boylesports and bet365 go 6-5 for over 7.5.
Elsewhere on Thursday there's the likes of cricket, tennis, NBA and the small matter of The Masters golf. Good luck with your bets and as always post your sporting tips and chat here.
Scott's darts double
Wade to beat Lewis
MVG to beat Bunting
(2.3-1, bet365)
Darts
Singles:
Lewis vs Wade – Lewis DNB 5/6
– Great performance last week to survive and then carried that form on over the weekend in Munich where he reached the semi finals and beat Wade 6-0 aling the way.
Anderson vs Chisnall – Anderson 8/11
– Should be a great game with plenty of 180s as the pace will suit both players. Anderson to edge it 7-4 in my opinion.
Taylor vs Barneveld – Over 10.5 legs 8/11
– Barney beat taylor a few weeks back in a cracker and that should give him the belief to put in another strong display. Taylor will not want to lose to his rival again and that is why i expect both players to put up a fight.
Bunting vs mvg – mvg most 180s 5/6
– Mvg is red hot and has been since losing his world title. He won another european tour event at the weekend and strengthening his invincibility. To short to back outright (rightly so) so i’ll be taking him most 180s at a decent price.
Chisnall vs wade
– Last game of the night. Will wait to see how these 2 perform in their earlier matches before making a decision. Chisnall most 180s looks an obvious bet, but at 4/9 i’ll be having it in a double.
Double 0.93/1
Mvg win 1/3
Chisnall most 180s vs Wade 4/9
Add lewis most 180s 8/15

Morning all was listening to talksports just now and the Coral rep has said that a northern Irish ‘Mac’ double of Rory Mcilroy (masters Golf) & AP McCoy (shutthefrontdoor Grand national) is 55/1 and that it will cost the industry 56-60 million as many will be on.
Is this worth a punt in anyone’s eyes or is it the usual promotional propaganda which they spew?

Dee I was listening too and I’m gonna have a little EW bet on it. Definitely worth a go as they’re the too hotly fancied favourites
Double
Anderson to beat Chisnall
Van Gerwen to beat Bunting.

Cycling ; Paris- Roubaix 2015
Lars Boom @13
I think he can win it, he certainly is in great form. I just hope he doesn’t crash!!
Very small stakes on this one, but you never know.
Tennis
Kovinic +1,5 set @1.97 seems good value. She played really good yesterday. The only thing that bothers me is that they are good friends, Kovinic revealed that Jankovic has acted like a mentor in her career…. Maybe Kovinic will not play at her best because of this? What are you thoughts on this, Ad or someone else?
I will have some on him reddevils, last time I backed Boom for a win he won the Tour de France stage :). You still can get him @ 19.00 with Betfair
iv got on harry small e/w!
Twins @ Tigers
Tigers @ 1.62
Rangers @ A’s
A’s @ 1.66
Double @ 2.7
Click on my name for reasoning.
Good luck everyone.
Last nights bets
Washington Wizards – 4. 20/23 ** WON**
Celtics +7
Magic +16
Wizards +3.5
Treble EVS **WON**
Only 2 games tonight will probly have a small bet on GS -9.5 the remainder of there games are at home now and they need to get some form goin into the playoffs after two defeats and we all know what GS are capable of when they want to play will post final opinion later
Well that’s a sickener.
Smaller Bets
Timberwolves +16.5 @ 10/11 **LOSE** (Kevin Martin back in the line up and scored 37 points last night in Sacramento and have beaten the Blazers twice this season although both at home).
Double @ 2.64/1 @ 365 (With Spurs) **LOSE**
A treble to lick your lips at (hopefully).
Spurs ML – WON
Mavericks -1.5 – WON
Timberwolves +24.5 – LOST BY A POINT
12/10 @ 365. **LOSE**
Zach Lavine turns the ball over and Alonzo Gee makes a three point jumper in the final seconds of the game. The w*nker gave a shooting foul with a minute to play too. Who gives fouls when your 20 points down with a minute to play haha, never mind. Had a nice alternative total at 2/1 but didn’t post it as I tdid think it had as much chance as the alternative bet. Well done on your winners lads. Slim pickings tonight.
What do you boys think about the Heat tonight? Bulls are sealed in the playoffs, no chance of the Bucks taking their second seed, Cavs wrapped up the division last night with the Bulls losing in Orlando, Heat need to win every game they can, just not sure if they’re good enough to beat the Bulls with Rose back.
Wade to beat lewis 13/10
Chisnall to beat Anderson 12/5
Id be wary of backing Wade tonight – if Lewis turns up in proper form he will outscore him, also Lewis beat him 6-0 at the weekend so that may still be playing on his mind
Gary Anderson v Dave Chisnall –
Total Match 180s: Over 7.5 @ 2.00
Both players are up there with MVG in terms of 180s hit. This should come in easily and I’ll be having a large bet on this.
Lewis plane back fi Munich just about crashed couple days ago, seen it on twitter last night and that was him just getting over the shock, electronics not working and was foggy, plus had to drop fuel in the sea and plane took 3 attempts to land. Don’t know whether it’ll affect him tonight but could well do
He looks miserable enough at the best of times, imagine what he looked like on that plane. :(

Might be worth keeping an eye on Ouahab in the tennis this week, as he just absolutely schooled GGL on clay.Two pretty convincing wins thus far from the underdog.
Thanks Mr orange I was on the cycling again.

Evening Guys, Darts
After last week relegation were down to Eight with seven players scrapping for 3 places as MVG looks to have sewn up a top four finish. Wade and Chisnall are doing double duty tonight.
Lewis v Wade
Lewis has just one win in seven games against Wade in the premier league, the last time they met was a draw in the Premier league. Wade averaged 103 and Lewis 102 in a quality match and I don’t see any reason why this wont be close. I am taking O11.5 total legs at 6/5 Skybet.
O11.5 TOTAL LEGS 6/5
Anderson v Chisnall
Chizzy hammered Anderson in the last game 7-2 and
hit him with a barrage of 180s. I cant be taking Anderson at odds on and Chizzy at 11/4 appeals he can have double trouble. I am going O7.5 total 180s at 6/5 Paddy Power. There was 7 in that rout and I expect this to be closer so every chance they cover the line.
O7.5 TOTAL 180s 6/5
Taylor v Van Barneveld
2013 that is the last time Taylor beat Barney in the premier league. Taylor refused the bull and left Barney a 144 checkout which he took and then turned the game on its head. Taylor averaged 115 the highest losing tv average. RVB averaged 104, then lost to MVG with an average of 102, and drew with Anderson with a 100 average. I think if he can nick the throw in the first leg he can win this as he is a good front runner, however I am taking RVB +2.5 on the handicap 1/1 Skybet. I also think Barney checkout line is low at 93.5 every top pro can take out a ton plus and the 144 last time against Taylor was superb, I am taking Over at 5/6 Coral
RVB +2.5 TO BEAT TAYLOR 1/1
RVB O93.5 CHECKOUT 5/6
MVG v Bunting
I don’t usually bet on MVG as I have backed to win as I always do, but when he played Bunting last time he averaged 109. They shared 8 maximums and with pressure of relegation off Bunting he should relax and I think they can cover 6.5 total 180s at 1/1 Skybet.
O6.5 TOTAL 180s 1/1
Good luck if your having a bet
Play stake props tonight.
Hassan Whiteside (Heat) Over 8.5 Rebounds @ 5/6 @ PP
Goran Dragic (Heat) Over 5.5 Assists @ 5/6 @ PP
Chennai in bother can they do it or is double off
Heyyy
I love you rossy
Win win rossy
Realwalker win win baby
Chennai did it. Double still on harry.
NEveR in doubt
absolute risk NBA shot
heat to win and under 191.5
warriors to win and over 210.5
20£ return 158£
Jordan. Took your treble last night but took +25.5 on the Timberwolves….pheeew.
If I had to put a single on the NBA today, I would go for Heat/Bulls under 191.5, it probably won’t be a fun game to watch with both teams needing the win and with a mostly defensive kind of play.
Warriors will probably win at home after two away losses, but will they cover the spread? … that’s the question.
Gonna go for this double:
– Heat/Bulls under 203.5 pts
– Warriors/Blazers over 205.5 pts
@19/20
Just a fun bet tonight for me I think
Chicago Bulls v Miami Heat Tribet 19 /10
That’s either team to win by 5 points or less
This game should stay close
Evening Guys good night on darts so close to a full house but landed 3 out of the 5 I put up and I advised Chisnall at 11/4 to beat Anderson.
Lewis v Wade
O11.5 TOTAL LEGS 6/5 LOST

Taylor v Van Barneveld
