Sweep Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 1 minute ago, Escobarp said: Will it be next year you make your appearance at the BDO mate after a few weekends of practice down the local? Quarter finals you reckon? I can't do this year, as I'm really busy at the minute, and obviously haven't even attempted to qualify I was looking at next year, but I've seen the winner last year only got £23K, which doesn't seem very much at all. In all honesty, it's having to go to various pubs to win "round the clock" or whatever it is they do, in order to get a qualification ticket that probably puts me off, as it's time consuming, and that might be what in reality, stops me competing If I don't get to go on holiday this year, then I may well stick a dart board up in the garage and practice 4 hours a day for a fortnight and aim to get to the Quarters in 2022, I'd certainly be upset if I couldn't at least make the last 16, as I'm sure would most on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErnestTurnip Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 I don't think the BDO exists any more, went to the wall last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErnestTurnip Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Power vacuum, no replacement for the worlds. There's a few different organisations knocking about I think but not involved enough to know who is running county stuff and the bigger comps, maybe the WDF ?

Sweep Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 FFS, I'd just ordered some new darts as well. That's £3.99 down the drain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also expect a record amount of entrants this year, as so many people have been on furlough, surely they've had loads who've had more practice time and managed to reach the usual required qualification criteria (a 15 dart or better checkout from 501, at least once in the previous calendar year) BDO has disolved mate, run by a load of plebs Some ex pros have launched some other form of it I dont no to much about it but i'll send you the qualification criteria when i do good luck mate x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously with her being a woman, that proves the point even more. She's probably got fuck all else to do with her time. I'll say it again, even starting from scratch, if you can be bothered to spend 3 or 4 hours a day chucking darts at a board for 5 or 6 months, you'll be (unless you're blind or have some other impairment) virtually guaranteed a place in the last 32 of any darts event, anywhere in the world (I'm talking about the tournaments with the better players, is it called the PDC?) . If you enter that terrible tournament that is for sub standard players who are basically pub players, then you'd be very disappointed not to get to the semi finals or the final in all reality.

I was thinking about this when the bdo went pop as I know you fancied a run in that this year to the final with an expectation to win it after a couple of nights practice. I’m reality anyone with a functioning arm and eyes could practice at darts for a few nights and reach the latter stages of televised darts tournaments. It’s all a myth.
