    13:25 - watch Heta's left hand. Absolutely fascinating how he lets the next dart roll down his palm, just before he throws. You'd think that'd be offputting but he just does it without even thinking. So cool!

      I just hold them by the points like Anderson. Easiest way to pick up next dart and they are closer to pick up. imo.
      And no rolling required. :D

      Because you can only finish the Game with a Double.

      10 = D5
      5 = 1+ D2

      If you averaged 107 and missed darts to have a hold of through to go through just a leg before you'd be miffed as well. Other players have won majors, have won titles, have won opens, Littler has yet to win a title aside from the Bahrain one. At 17, with all that pressure on you and you fall short playing the best darts of your life, of course you'll be upset.
      There's a massive difference between what Littler done, despite shaking hands seconds after PDC cut the video, and what Dimi did in the final when everyone did turn against him

      Yeah especially the crypto market is very juicy since this year
      But It's important to do thorough research or consult with a financial advisor to understand the potential risks and returns of each option. Remember, investing always carries some level of risk, so it's essential to diversify your portfolio and not put all your eggs in one basket. 📊💸

      ​@@mathewmiller2749Yeah, I totally get what you mean! Investing without proper research and understanding can be risky. It's important to educate ourselves about different investment options and make informed decisions. Blindly following trends or tips can lead to poor outcomes. Taking the time to learn about the market, analyze potential investments, and seek advice from professionals can help minimize risks and increase the chances of success. It's all about being smart and informed when it comes to investing! 💪📚

    During his run in the Worlds Littler was shown world class sportsmanship from Matt Campbell , Barny and Rob Cross he was shown the way to behave but ignored it , and has become a spoilt little brat in my opinion ....can a Gerwyn Price like meltdown be far away ? time will tell !

      Dude he is 17 and you expect him to behave like seasoned players? And even older players behave like little kids from time to time. He is still learning to control his emotions on the big stage.
