stantly now effectively taking the Darts Away from Peter right how’s the layer 58 over thrilled with that he’ll get a shot first for what would be the first break of the [Applause] match 138 lqu doing the right things at the right time Peter right he’s not it’s not oh my word breath taking what a talent what a shot absolutely incredible we saw Jose to do that in the Premier League a few years ago just how nonsilent he was he made his decision early and it was a brilliant first start and he’s one of the best if not the best at following a first start and he gets the first break in style in from Luke ller no arrogance at all he just fancied it and I guess well you’re right after the first D 65 look look he’s built in drink he’s SP his water out in shock 41 17 aggression in the last there what I said before [Music] rubbish come on pet one you go one so ller with a Chance 100 for daylight beat a third consecutive leg as well surely brilliant guide uses the guide and bit of daylight buffer for Luke ller he’s two legs away from confirming that he will finish PR League campaign top of the table you acquire 170 you look ahead for something like the World Cup that’s coming up for Peter right get to play pairs with Gary Anderson in great for and just to sort of light in the load that might do him a big favor not to the final last year 82 absolutely really good point but take the pressure off him 121 he was at the 18 was to Le double 15 you see the disappointment with the deflection out of the second d y double seven gets it right again this game a over and he’s got six starts to play with he needed to confirm top spot in this year’s Premier League 81 he’s playing with us [Music] he’s done the right thing of course he has interacting with the crowd but these could be Peter’s last three darts in this year’s Premier League L to confirm top spot oh what a what a davier in the Premier League what a performance yet another win for Luke ller 19 see the first dark go he does find it so does he go for it no splits sacrifices a dart at Double it could be crucial 160 let me tell you Nathan will be eager to see if this 60 goes in we don’t have many bounce outs that was a Bonafide bounce out don’t have many nowadays on the quality of the boards for 2-2 hit this to in his first leg did it 22 no darting drama once again at the start of the L Michael Smith’s had the dots he’s looked in a little bit of danger and he’s dug himself out of trouble yeah 840s then to the biggest 14 against the biggest 14 in the field double eight oh that’s beautiful Sumptuous stuff from the bully boy I don’t know how nervous Nathan feels but put it this way shaking your arm out 100 he’s not feeling 100% here this has to be 100% for it to go first part done and he could not follow it to leave Double 12 74 left asking the referee and this goes with what I was saying about the not feeling 100% maybe Under Pressure the clarity of mind he I’m sure he he knows that he’s done that a thousand times is it a seven off 81 that was all it was but when your head is in a shed it’s difficult he could have not now not now bully boy oh my word oh my word that is how you break throw that is not hold a throw that is a break look at the reaction from Nathan Aspen special players do special things that was special has he broken the heart Micha you [Music] ac2 to win it it’s not going to happen but he is going to leave himself on a double unless Ean Aspen the man who won his first major Title by hitting this very check out does it come to his Aid once more got to go Nath when you know it has to go you can become desperate and how can you do anything naturally when you are desperate he’s absolutely gutted he thinks Michael Smith is going to get this he doesn’t think he’s coming back in this Premier League the bully boy Double 12 he’s going to the o02 Nathan Asel all he can do is applaud waited all that time for the the outou and in leads put Sheffield on the week after did a baned with the crowd on the way L require 88 he won’t mind that he won’t mind this either 74 well going require 59 sometimes with the darts that he has if it goes top of the bed it’s a it can be a foe as well as a friend and it is a foe as price breaks with the first [Applause] leg what about this he goes back to [Applause] back l l may be a little distracted his beloved lead’s playing in the playoffs got somebody in the crowd giving him hand signals brilliant 12 down to 2-0 real chance now for humri to strike [Applause] back 39 he thought about he thought about laying up didn’t he with price on 153 couldn’t take the chance 16 not the way this the level this game is being played at 25 Humphrey’s knocking on the door getting that break back D eight not there opportunity for price to restore the two-leg buffer going requir 93 hopefully he’s missed two darts to win the first leg and his throw broken missed two darts to break back for the double double 57 the double four L require eight for three a piece [Applause] this Fair Way on the double four and a double eight on the previous visit made a bit of a mess of this Luke now miss eight starts at a double in this match pry getting away with one here he’s got to take the opportunity and he hasn’t little thumb up to the crowd as if someone had shouted out didn’t seem like that to be fair yeah they do get involved on legs like this but h reason you have to say it the L has gone to his rightful own it and we are Level sensible last start using the 25 36 yeah 25 has given price a great chance here he thought it was in massive D 78 they didn’t convert that switch 18 to9 in leg six and it cost him it’s cost him again here Luke Humphrey’s one away from the semi-finals when he assesses it he’ll be proud of his efforts well done Michael [Applause] Smith 45 that would have been some way to win the match 57 he’ll have another go LC required 25 where they the last two doubt to G in price throws in this Premier League campaign even if he misses Luke hum will be back and he does and price will be kicking himself even further now cuz he didn’t te well hopefully he just missed 15 D at Double 45 surely this time and HRI does clinch victory for GTO and price it ends a disappointing campaign he will he couldn’t really do a lot about that when he went for the n 19 second up he really should have gone for the ball’s eye but he decided not so he doesn’t care what he [Applause] leaves 134 this is for a break of throw and Mike Dan has already set it up that if angn loses here Michael Smith can finish above him the first break goes to Rock Cross and having beaten mvg three times on the spin he has win number four right in front of him and it once again we are seeing cross put in one of these Granite solid displays I think he starts on the 19s but he tried 46 Mar require 122 St on the bullseye okay now 57 for Tops I quite like it it’s aggressive I I go well say I go that way I hardly play nowadays only in in ex itions but I like that way to go rob cross has taken out 8668 is he going to take out the 104 he is deadly 13 double chance shot so he gets a second chance at the trouble 20 which he takes leaves the ball’s eye 97 what’s going for it requ you don’t know that the evidence doesn’t suggest it but I’m interpreting it that way tops now to join the 8668 104 and an 80 60 couldn’t get it there requ 33 got a burn a dart to get to a double that’ll do it double 16 Bango in breaks and going back within one it’s Mich a throw first game on first win of the week has gone on and converted that into titles 12 four weeks of the Premier League Michael so is Luke ller so has Luke humpr 67 won’t go the cross leaves himself very well placed and Michael Van can he conjure this one up to hold his throw and level the game brilliant d four a piece vanin fighting in this one I’m loving this I think this is superb this is great from mvg because Rob cross was hardly giving him a sniff for a break and another 11 D leg to go 54 [Music] up the annoyance prob required 56 I don’t think he was keen on that visit no he w ke on this one disobedient darts from mvg Rod cross loves double 18 surely 20 Mar re 16 do not give mvg more chances because he will take them it is 54 van when he was on the ropes he was in danger of another hiding from Rob cross he was 4-1 down he’s rattled off four legs on the spin2 that might be that for the Premier League he’s not going to take out 97 52 he rob cross going to take out another decent finish to restle the darts back and throw for the game to take as the distance double [Applause] top oh R cross misses the chance of vanan will get match start 55 tops that is done and dusted guaranteed £85,000 for getting to the O2 you out mightly winds as well first one 180 from ller 275 grand for the [Applause] winner back to [Applause] back oh to back boring 63 lqu 58 I’m a feeling this will be good simply because they’re both Rel they know what’s happening they know what’s happening next week and ller takes the first leg against the D courtesy of those backto backs acknowledged by his opponents as well well got to go you think got to take this that’s a beauty double 123 he’s doubling against Aspen in a match where it had to go was on point those were not double 10 Again 54 there a let off for Smith very much so cuz that would also have been a double break indeed you don’t often see little Miss Double 10 you don’t often see Smith Miss Double Six to be fair oh he’s pretty good over that side of the [Applause] board they can hit one 180s can H all sorts but doubles will always be the settler of darts matches as long as the rules say you have to finish with one it’s the end it’s difficult no score L Miss 12 between them 13th out lucky 3 to L after that spectacular start in the opening leg yeah that was crazy oh look at this he through Ball’s eyes earli Michael Smith in a 132 combination 57 so to get one of those breaks [Music] [Applause] back from the yeah took him nine attempt gets a double three1 he’s on the board six C he fenes it he fenes the fish 105 Michael 56 oh Double 12 it is double six he made well I think he didn’t even think about it knew he have to go after the error only one D for ller yeah he’s been he rushed there Michael Smith he hit the 32 to leave the 24 he knew what was left he just he rushed I I don’t know what we do we’ll ask the winner next week [Applause] L5 you say different game different night different circumstances and as you said before different vibe 156 yes yes yes from theck leg Michael Smith ha they’re loving it aren’t they they’re loving the competition and so are we tops tops on 120 to break Peter right yeah I’m glad it wasn’t in here for that the Michael Smith 136 132 bll ball dou 16 now the 156 just because he could yeah the 132 was the yeah the best finish of the evening for me the importance of it 100 the situation Nathan Aspen was sitting on 32 for a third leg big 20 moves over to the left does he pop tops oh Pop Michael smith6 120 took out 136 and 132 in his previous match last couple of yeah the the 156 the 120 36 and Michael Smith has looked at a little bit more comfortable since and why wouldn’t you and with that is’s back they regrouped quite beautifully 44 three legs on the spin the concentration is is utmost during this game and it is all about next week anyway 140 looks like been four con second legs for Michael 125 just some waywood sloppy darts from Luke ller well the double 17 doesn’t often come into play no score Luke require 94 for a steal why is he going here that leaves the ball ey moves over he fall Michael you were quiet as he4 said it before the the flight and stem combination is so rigid just hits them and falls out double 16 now two decided after four darts that maybe I don’t like 17 decide after one man Nick 1 that was that was M Les that was m I think that that just man have slipped out of his hand slips it was near a double six games on the N flag four legs on the spin 96 looks like being a a last leg shootout and Smith will have the Dos [Music] L5 tops now for five five the you just felt that that was going in because maybe he had time arm extended show your opponent it was a well thrown Dart 86 L7 carry with it [Applause] 45 Michael you requir 20 to beat ller once again Michael Smith has reached the final the job’s done particularly Michael Smith he waits in the final Professional Pride they want to win here tonight but they had already looking re next Thursday huge night in London 18 19 by mvg chance for humph to break the throw and go two n up here trouble 14 for double 12 and taken out 2-0 to co the mvg is using they’re the ones that I’m told he won the UK open with a couple of years ago they’re slightly heavier that might be a decision playing in these big Arenas we have seen breezes on stage and having a heavier Dart can help combat that he might just be wanted to use a set of dots but he’s won something with something big he’s picked a good night to try it really as well humph looks at 142 and gets a 142 3 n he leads on the Humphrey’s throw but it might be a big combination check out that has to go 100 might be required 154 he got it in his locker right now possibly does he stay there he he tried it would have left dou 173 the right shot execution not there may only be a doubt the ball here there double seven and he gets the double seven brilliant on the doubles clinical from humph five from six 52 he leads the game changing shots and you back home freeze to find one leg from here 131 there’ll be pressure on this 90 all sorts of pressure the World Champ within touching distance of the final vano double 10 gets it superb stuff from mvg getting rid of an awkward finish as well requ 108 108 to win it and he’s got two visits from here minimum single 19 double 16 for a spot in the final wh go away timing isn’t it when he does Miss look where Michael is humph will get more opportunities for a place in the final Michael vanu will surely turn his attention to next week in the playoffs the World Champ the world number one is in the final and they are the two times already is qualified making it a third from Seven it’s not a bad ratio looking to get in front again here they look awkward 16 has it proved out Miss with his leg for Michael Smith it’s one of the reasons Mark he doesn’t like double 16 he doesn’t leave it that often cuz his darts kind of they slide away don’t they to the to the right yeah it’s Illustrated there backs up your point [Music] made a mess of this leg Michael Smith gifting the breaker throw to Luke humph mess wow look when you’re the world’s best you get away with murder yeah these guys will have not seen long call starts and I’m not calling best of 19 Mark kind a long course but it’s longer course isn’t it really since the UK open that’s it at the same time they’ll be looking forward to that won’t they look the spotlight on all four players next week you’re playing in a longer format as humph goes hunting a 17 gets a 170 and he can’t do a lot wrong in a minute Luke humph no real reaction and it’s sply acknowledge by Michael Smith but it backs up the break and Humphries is halfway to what would be that record of five nightly wins hot cup of something I think that was a that was a tough night that was a difficult one even if he wins this he’s that’s a really battle he’s not really had a leg off against aspal you couldn’t relax against uh Luke liter he was 4-1 down 43 Mich 140 fire back with a big finish of his own oh double 10 brilliant for Michael Smith and again no real reaction but been playing at high standard and in the best of order here acknowledge from humries and both were an exhibition they spent a lot of time with each other so probably easy to get along but don’t let that fool you they’re all winners they want to win every time they play another double five 120 credit Smith here first down and we have a level game that’s at all my Michael Smith he’s been calm he’s been controlled it’s been a big night for in particular first game but he’s just channeled it all in the right way and he’s got himself back in this final theyve let it be known when they’re disappointed but they’ve grown out of that unlike Q Mark they’ve matured I’ve gone completely the opposite you have level game oh dear [Applause] 18 Mich fourth consecutive leg he’s got one away and he’s there Michael Smith and it’s all focus and he’s put himself in a great position he leads 53 and he’s he’s got a break he’s got the darts this is the same position he found himself in against Nathan Aspen it can block the bed for the night we’ve seen this already oh to end it in style Michael Smith marginally misses out he FCI it and why not humph needs the one to one just to stay in a he couldn’t could he could he could it6 it was hell of an effort [Applause] though to book his placing well he’s already booked this place but to end it in style Michael Smith What a Night for Michael Smith he was involved in the game of the night coming here tonight the knockout game with Nathan aspel he got the job done there he then beat Luke ller he’s then beat Luke hum he
