The festive period is all about the darts for many people and this year’s PDC World Championship has already been one of the most exciting in recent years. Lots of seeds have already crashed out, including Adrian Lewis, James Wade and most recently, Peter Wright. ‘Snakebite’ Wright went out to Jamie Lewis despite averaging over 103 in a stunning Second Round match at The Ally Pally.
The main story of this year’s event is, of course, Phil Taylor. The most successful darts player of all time is taking part in his final ever World Championship event and it will bring down the curtain on a glittering career which has seen Taylor win 16 World Championships and 85 major tournaments around the world.
It would be a fairy tale end to an almost perfect career if he were to win this time around, but you’d have to fancy world number one, Michel van Gerwen to defend his title here. The Dutch ace has looked in solid form so far and he faces a mouth watering clash with fellow Dutch legend, Raymond van Barneveld in the next round.
To coincide with the tournament, Coral are running a superb offer for new and existing customers which allows you to double your winnings as a free bet if your player wins the match on a double top (Double 20). To qualify for this offer, all you need to do is place a £5 bet on any player to win his PDC World Championship match and if your selection wins the match with double tops being his final dart then Coral will double your winnings as a free bet (up to £50). The free bet will be credited within 24 hours, but must also be used within 24 hours, otherwise it will expire.
As you can see, if you regularly bet on the darts anyway, then this is an offer which you should definitely be taking advantage of. It’s simple, quick, easy and most importantly, it gives you the opportunity to win some free money!
