Premier League Darts kicks off tonight
The first match of the night is Michael Smith vs Peter Wright
Having a look at darts database for all tournaments with a legs format from the start of 2015:
Micheal Smith has throw 53 180s in 190 legs for 0.279 180s/leg
Peter Wright has throw 168 180s in 542 legs for 0.309 180s/leg
We can get 11/8 about Wright most 180s
It is a 3 way handicap with the draw in there too but I think we've got the best of it here. Wright knows that he is close to bagging a major and will be really up for this. He's a huge grinder, plays so much more darts than Smith who openly admits that he rarely practices.
I believe that this has been priced up on Smiths performance in the World Championship where he made the quarter finals and was touted as a possible winner. Smith has shown a boatload of petulance in his career and with this run at the worlds there was lots of talk of him 'coming of age' so to speak but when he went 3-0 up very quickly in a race to 5 sets vs Barney and was pegged back that petulance was back front and centre. Wright is an out and out scrapper, doesn't matter if its 6-0 or 0-6 he'll be shooting for those 180s whereas Smiths head will be in the bar if he gets down a couple of breaks early in this short format.
Rec £100 Wright Most 180s @11/8 with Baldy, BMU, SportingBet or Coralhttp://www.oddschecker.com/darts/premier-league/peter-wright-v-michael-smith/most-180sLike this alot, Smith is deceptive he isnt actually that prolific and 180 shooter but the commentators constantly go on about how he is, throw in the nerves of opening night, first match on etc etc I think this is a great bet. This also includes those few months where PW had those super fat ugly darts that he could not physically get 3 in the T20 bed
