Day 2 Darts: World Championships - Highlights

Hello, everybody. The man who won the BDO World Championship in 2000

and 2009 was at Lakeside Country Club along two Dutchman and a

superhero man from Wales. Before we get to tonight' highlights, let's

recap on this afternoon's results. The bookies aren't buying this.

Neither is Bobby George, if truth be total. The Masters champion

checked out what he needed to against Andy Boulton. He had four

finishes although an average well below his best. He eventually

through darts and it was a set all sold.

Martin Atkins beat his good friend and partner former world champion

John Walton in four sets. Atkins into the second round for the

fourth time, but at the expense of the 2001 world champion John Boy

Walton. Also today, Willy van de Wiel

didn't get to go on. He beat Garry Thompson in tough style. Lovely

stuff. Let's move on to tonight's for this match. A vintage match.

The first of the man in black. He's against another debutant Fantasia

(SONG): # This is my territory ANNOUNCER: Clive Barden! Get ready

to rumble! Two sets up but faltering in the

third. Barden leads two -1. Here is Tony Green and David Croft. 7 out

of 28 so far in this match. That is where Barden might find the

openings. If he carries on like this he can

He's Just a lovely throwing action. A

very smooth muscle. A bit more shoulder there from

61. He can still square this set up for double top - woah! He's goes

from the meet ochre to the marvellous in the blink of an eye.

Nice scores. Ready for a finish, but didn't get a throw. It is cruel,

though, isn't it? Barden had done everything right there to try and

win the set or at least set himself up with a chance and then Hankey

just pops up with a 1-4-5. It is just not fair.

It is a cruel old world when you He may be rushed that final dart a

bit, did Clive Barden. ANNOUNCER: ANNOUNCER: 100. Almost venting his

frustrations as the mummy forces on. It wouldn't be the same, would it?

Absolutely. Every dart... Well, 21 before the

flow. ANNOUNCER: 54. Requires 1. 17. Double 16. ANNOUNCER: Required

164. That was cruel. This would have been to the match had Hankey

have hit the treble 20 and that was a bit of a tepid response, but

surely Clive Barden will never get CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

We have at least one more set to come. ANNOUNCER: Clive Barden.

is still giving the cow food for thought. ANNOUNCER: Game on.

OK. I think Ted has had enough of this. He is speeding up.

He won't give in. Do you remember Tony Brown? I remember Tony Brown

very well. He came close, four times a

semifinalist. ANNOUNCER: 147. -- 100. My very good friend Richard

Ashdown was only talking about him the other day. Very good. Ted with

two turns, a good start to this fourth set. 1-Nil if he wins.

Through to the next round then. just had a feeling, though, Tony,

as a player coming back out from the break, it might not all be

plain sailing for Hankey. He did it two sets up, but he is not throwing

championship-winning darts. He is a long way from it at the moment. All

he had to do was throw the game and that is what he died in the first

step. But he's in with a chance and that is the thing with Hank. Double

20. 25 to take the odd one off. ANNOUNCER: 65. He's not far away

from a treble 20 with his last dart. It is frustrating for him. You know

what! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

How about that?! You could see it coming. You could see it coming.

Clive Barden on his debut now has the highest checkouts of the

tournament so far, all the way to double top. I tell ya, there is

life left in this match because Barden is throwing in this fourth

set. (Laughs). You could say it is dog on. And on and on and on.

(Laughs). He's got something to think about now, Ted. If he can do

that now, he's got used to this stage. ANNOUNCER: 134. It is just

whether Hank can raise his game back up to break the throw or keep

hold of his throw and try and stop the momentum which is gathering

pace. The fans are making a bit more noise now as well. ANNOUNCER:

140. Yeah, there is still one. They need to be careful. Bob will be

flogging them with a fire if he runs out of the kitchen. ANNOUNCER:

Requires 167. Yes. Unlucky. What was after the 16 checkout. An

acknowledgement from Hankey to say "well done". It can be beaten, of

course, but at the moment he's got three games in his back pocket.

Double 16. Now then... 52. Requires 92. 25 first he has done, but then

hold it a little bit. In the 17 there. 75 and he can still do this

without the treble. You know how this bullseye will find a way

through. Double 8, double 4. ANNOUNCER: Ted Hankey. Normal

service resumes. From the side lines as well. When we interviewed

him he said, "At some stage I am going to blow." He is like an

Icelandic volume cane know. You know there will be a bit of a rush

at some stage. -- volcano. You know there will be a bit of a rush at

some stage. I think he's left it a bit late. He is really coming to

form, showing his right hand. not the first and he won't be the

last. Slow at the start. 96. I've never seen anyone hurl them like

that, David. Never. Not at that speed. There is a fair few from

Holland who have shown that. Yeah, but from the position that he

throws it. You watch how he comes down - look, see. Yeah. 84. At the

wrist, isn't it? Yeah. He finishes a bit out of the wrist as well. He

started off with a few nerves, Clive Barden. You can so from the

side, Barden is too much in a hurry. You've got to wake up, Ted. I am

tellin' ya... He will finish on this. Barden on 40.

They are booing. No, Ted, don't react.

(CROWD BOOS) Oh, well, like I said an Icelandic

volcano, but... That is a good bit of play there.

He was setting Barden up with a CHEERING

Clive Barden. Hankey got involved with a bit of pantomime antics with

the crowd and it was actually buying him a bit more time and

keeping Barden waiting. He stepped straight in and finished the leg.

No-one has held their throw. There is an advantage in this, like. I

think Ted is having some problems at the moment if he doesn't pick up.

He is finishing straight away. are right, Tony, Clive Barden is

new but no-one has held their throw. It is 2-2 in sets. Or 2-2 in legs.

Where is your money? Yeah. 2-2 in sets or 2-2 in legs. Where would

your money go? 2-2 in sets. OK. You Well, we know they are counting the

high scores. ANNOUNCER: 5. Oh, 85. It is in there. A lovely first

start. Not as far to the right as Hankey would have liked. It went

awry with the second and third. He is not making the most of his

chances, Hankey. 123. ANNOUNCER: 123. A big dart in the context of

this match, you know. He put Barden down to a checkout and Hankey is

OK. That a 54 left. 18. No, he wants double top. Agony on both

sides of the fence here. Hankey cannot checkout. He has put the

pressure on. Barden will be with him all the way. Double 5s. He's

done it! Woah! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Clive Barden. I've seen it happen so many times, David. He can't

believe it. Look at him. ANNOUNCER: Game on. 93. Now he' got to really

try. I haven't seen this. Hankey toying with Clive Barden

like a cat. He is tangling a mouse. The cat is looking forward to the

feast and the mouse is on the verge of running away here. He is trying

to play darts now, Ted. I can tell from that first draw. Well, he's

got to. The thing is that we know that he

can play very well on this stage. We think that Clive Barden has got

it in him to play well on this stage. They know he has thrown some

great darts in floor tournaments, but this is a whole new ball game.

Stand back for fireworks. 180 coming up here. No. 140. 164 is

the shot. He is just waiving a little. Remember the fmber the fat

th th this match. It moans that Barden lass the advantage in

this set. Hankey is looking good, though, to break him if Barden

misses 160. Under 20s. Switch to 19 and 18. Double 18. That is the one.

CHEERING ANNOUNCER: Ted Hankey. Is that

normal service resumed or what? Well, he has to play well now.

ANNOUNCER: Game on. They are booing, but they are

booing in a pantomime style, rather than trying to get at Ted. G he is

actually taking it the right way from the crowd for once. He looks

like he is in full control of his often see.

Normally he's perspiring like no- one's business, like running water.

ANNOUNCER: 99. Colin Monk and Steve West, players who have taken Ted

Hankey to five sets in the first round of the Lakeside. On they

O'Shea taken Ted Hankey to five sets and beaten him. -- Tony O'Shea

beaten him. He's got time on his 160 or above is what is needed.

Double 18 there for Hankey. Straight in.

CHEERING All professionals Country Fire

Authority. Should really have let Clive Barden in with a -- he

shouldn't have really let Clive Barden in with a sniff. He is

playing properly and taking complete col of this match. --

He has been up and down. Maybe Clive Barden will go out in

this leg will think, "Maybe I shouldn't have been so nervous at

the start. I didn't do myself any favours ". His first-round match

here and first-ive game at the Lakeside, Tony. He averaged over

100. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

It is not over. Only 40. Clive Barden. Hankey put a

140 in here or even a 1 80. That will make it interesting. This is a

good finish. So the late team, ball... Oh. So near. ANNOUNCER: Ted,

you require 85. Ted goes for that bulls eye itself. No. A 3 for

victory. He switched off for two sets, but he's back with a 3-2 win

and it is goodbye to Barden and well done. 'The Count' is through.

Here is a man who just loves to entertain and sometimes teach the

crowd a less on. Tonight he did ter

opponent than others give him credit for. A great match. I said

that before I went out to play. There were ridiculous odds. The boy

can play darts. He's won. I knew what to expect. At break 2-nil, I

don't want to come in. I want to finish him up. 160, brilliant.

few little exchange was the crowd. We've come to expect that from you.

You handled it well. You don't expect to get boos here. I am

giving them back. I am getting on with it. I am here to earn money

and they are here to watch me. It is up to them. Scott Waites, an

opportunity to reverse your defeat last year in the first round.

is a brilliant player. He has won world matches and Masters and a

British Open. He is a great player. I am looking forward to over seven

set. It should be a good game, an interesting game. You've got a bit

of a twinkle in your eye. Do you believe you are good enough to win

this world title this year? wo wostanding here talking

to you if I didn't. Simple as. Never short of confidence. Thank

you very much. We have Darts Extra, by the way, at the end of this

season on BBC. Two Dutchmen, two young Dutchmen, one of them a

semifinalist last year and another one that is a newbie. You won't

know whether to celebrate or mourn the fact that one of them has to go

out. It is Christian Kist against Four out of five for Jan Dekker.

He's slipped back. Really nothing in it. He shifted the ball to get

that last dart. Look at Kist, he is starting tos for the leg a bit,

isn't he? A powerhousepowerhouse from the outset.

Not too shabby here either. 50%. That is fine when you are scoring

Yes he's got to find the way to break the Christian Kiristian Ki

otherwise it is goodnight to last year's semifinal its. --

Back-to-back 140s and D ekker has no reply to this. He is running out

of time a little bit. He needs to When he comes back, Christian Kist

for a 2-1 lead in this third set. Double 10 instead. Too much. Double

5. Not enough. Is that the moment? Is that the moment? Is that the

moment that the momentum switches? 14 or 18. He's hit the big, fat 4.

He shouldn't have done that. He's only one dart at the tops. It is

all he needsl he needs CHEERING

It is all he needs! Game on. Into was a hay maker. It landed right on

the chin of Christian Kist. Yeah. One more leg he could win. Look at

this. CHEERING

He has a 6 on his doubles. Christian Kist, though, is giving

himself 11 more opportunities to hit a double. Therefore, he's been

more successful. Dekker has got to keep putting the 180s in. 180. 134.

Some way to start the leg. A little smile to himself. He failed to

score over 100. He can afford it, Christian Kist back on 346. Not for

Treble 19 first and treble 18, double 18 possibly. Double 18 for a

147 and a set. Oh, not far away. We Were smiling now.

Two 9s for the set. 288 he is going. Yes!

APPLAUSE Well, very happy about that.

think he deserves at least one set in this match. He doesn't desive to

go out 3-nil. Could have but Dekker broke it just at the right time.

Now to start this set, there is a lot of fight left in him. This is

just great, isn't it? The sort of darts you expect in a high-quality

quarterfinal. This is Round 1 at Lakeside and a debut for Christian

Kist. Remember of course the last man to win this championship on his

debut Klasson, the Dutchman. He qualified through the

International play-offs that year as well. I am not saying there is

an Oman in that. It has happened three times in the past.

CHEERING Another mini victory for Christian

Good first start from Jan Dekker. He got closer, but not close enough

with the final on. That is a handy marker. In it goes.

ANNOUNCER: Christian Kist. CHEERING

Second leg is Christian. Game on. In goes Christian Kist there. He is

second down in the double. Jan Dekker could have taken that leg,

but his first mistake has really cost him when it's got down to the

doubles. What a time, Vassos, as well. All he had to do was throw

his throw and start this set off nicely. Kist one up already.

A good start after Kist left the door ajar. Dekker has given a good

boot to open it. Now, can he knock That will do. Kist needs all of

these and more. Dekker has got the advantage back, hasn't he? He is

still using the old nicknames on those.

Well, he jusll, he jusoken, Jan Dekker. He's responded with three

140s, a double 18, 4 and 11. He is starting to break back.

CHEERING Well, well, well. I told you this

match wasn't over yet. There is a lot of life in it. ANNOUNCER: Game

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 41 seconds

Whenever we bring the stats out, Dekker side. Six starts and 136. A

about this?! ANNOUNCER: Game on. Just got to hole his throw,

Christian Kist. Forget what Jan Dekker has done in

the last two legs and concentrate on the now. Not the past or the

future. CHEERING

Jan Dekker is really making a averages. Dekker is now in front.

Those are great numbers from both players.

I wouldn't be surprised if we got an average of over 100. It will be

the first occasion since 1978 when players averaged over 100 in a

match in this championship. I mentioned Keith earlier in the

commentary. He was the first guy to average over 100. John Lowe back in

leg with another one. That levels him double 5 for a 12-dart leg.

ANNOUNCER: 77. It would have been the set. Christian Kist attempts to

hold throw. Double top. Lovely. CHEERING

ANNOUNCER: Christian Kist. And so we either go all the way or

this is the final leg of the match. Who wants it most? Who has got the

Dekker, he would have won a set in 36 36ere ain't many people

who win sets here with fewer towards than that.

It happens. They are into a deciding leg. If Kist wins it, he

wins the match. Great consistency from both players.

This will help Jan Dekker take it all the way here. Darts like that

aren't too shabby either. APPLAUSE

A deciding set. Christian Kist doesn't. Emphasise how close they

are together. Jan Dekker through 60 and Christian Kist at 59. Both 96.

96 from Dekker. What will this be? 100. Nothing between them. So Kist

will have a chance to win the match. He is 106 points away. Treble 18

now. Oh. So close, but not enough. Just

the wrong side of the wire. All the pressure then goes to Dekker. He

tries his hand. He tries to keep his cool. He looks at double 12.

Double 6. One dart to save the match. No!

Oh, dear, oh, dear. He's just been hit for six. He

thinks about what could have been as Kist stands at the forward for

the double 16. Double 8. No! He just missed the wrong side, too.

CHEERING A different story for the left

double top, I am sure. Double 6 for Jan Dekker. He's one more chance -

yes! It is two sets all at Lakeside. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

After the first start, I think Jan Dekker thought it was in. He almost

went walk-about. Now he is going and starting about like some proud

Peacock. It is all green. It is all right. It is not looking so shabby

now for Dekker Christian Kist two doubles for the match. He missed

them both. Has he thrown in the towel or not? This is his chance.

What a way to hit that. What a way to start the deciding set. It is

fourth maximurth maxim You wish you could change the rules

and make it the best of 11. It is the sort of match it is a shame it

will finish. Only 16 seeds. Really competitive stuff. Oh, a lovely

last dart. require 40.

He tends to hole his throw at the start of the deciding --

CHEERING He hits double 10 Christian Kist.

When he went for double 16 for the match, it wasn't the way he would

have wanted to have gone. Dekker drives in with a maximum here. Kist

is favouring double top and I think that is where he wanted to Leigh

himself. Just pulled the first -- to leave himself. Just pulled the

first dart into the 16 and not the 8.

Kist started with a maximum when he threw first. Dekker responded and

followed it up with a solid tonne. Dekker on the 180s at the moment. I

am sure we will get another. Kist APPLAUSE

It will be a nice comfortable old throw here for Jan Dekker if he

takes this out. A 13-toward lead. Astonishing. -- a 13-dart lead.

we try again to try to separate this final set before we get

sudden-death. If it gets to 2-all someone has to

win by two clear legs. I wonder how much they are enjoying it? I would

say they are both loving every single bit of this. They are

throwing superb darts, blow for 10 to set up double top.

This for Christian Kist. Double top. Once again, Christian Kist moves to

an inner leg. Once again, Jan Dekker responds. A

140 to start the leg. There goes Kist. He's come back

Kist he will reply back. That takes its toll after a while. He knows it

-- A little opening. He would have been hoping for a 140. He is going

to have to switch. He's blocked. This is more of an opening now.

This is a gentleman's excuse me. After you, sir, you step in... Oh!

Only 120. He tried to split the the last one from Jan Dekker. Still

Christian Kist. He has three more here.

Christian Kist has his Lakeside debut. He is through o to the

second round. Last year's semifinalist loses in round one and

semifinalist loses in round one and The best performance by a debutante

he has ever seen at Lakeside. He is being xared to the greats. What a

shame to lose Jan Dekker. Both averages over 95 and both check out

percentages over 40. Fantastic stuff.

Just time now to bring you the conclusion of tonight's final

first-round game. It features Martin Phillips, who

faced another new Dutchman, who we have not seen before, Wesley Harms

harpls, 13th seed. He went from two behind, Phillips,

but could not stay out Harm's way The Dutch resurgence gathered pace.

That is all from us tonight in the Highlights show. If you are totally
