2 years ago you got 250 quid for winning a match on the pro tour. Next year it's gonna be 750, three times as much.
The tour has really become accessible for anyone who can throw a dart. If you're not fucking shite, you're gonna make a handy pocket money.
There are many players on the tour, who will earn 50-60% more just because the scrapped entry fees.

It's brilliant.

Where did that rumour start anyway? At this point I'd be a bit surprised if there are prize money increases on the regular Pro Tour events for next year.

Don't know, just read it and assumed it's true.
Probably it's fair not to have an increase after abolishing all entries

Totally ignoring the free Pro Tour, UK Open qualifier and Euro qualifiers :D
Straining to favourably compare the pursuit of Lakeside points to the flippin Challenge Tour. I think that just about sums it up.

"It’s now worth having a Tour Card," he eventually advised. We are not worthy.

from the day it was introduced, I've been in favor of the tour card and it just keeps getting better and better.

And how did that work out for you Ross mcflid? The most important event in playing for your country and they didn't even send a team.

These people will always have an excuse. Chances are they are scared shitless and not good enough to make it in the PDC.

The funny thing is with county darts in Scotland too, half the counties aren't even fucking real places. East Stirlingshire. :lol:

Pauly in defence mode already.

Paul James
depends how much you eat and drink , have you been on darting trips to Latvia etc , east Europe can get great deals on flights etc , £1 a pint helps.

Simon Rimington
It's a lot of faff though Paul James and relies on time off work to a huge extent. I'm not talented enough but working in a school it is possible to do a lot of PDC events. In the BDO I can't even get to Isle of Man

Paul James
Plenty of events you can do in BDO without time off work , could fly to Italy Friday night if you wanted play in ranking singles Saturday , flew home early Sunday morning and at county venue by 9.20am .
Some I know done French open last year on a day trip! Poland fly out late Friday night return late Sunday night 2 ranked singles !

Simon Rimington
But is that as easy as driving you car in the UK Paul? The pay out isn't as good either, logically I do not see how things can continue as they are.

Paul James
Simon am taking with Paul Brown 50 darters to Poland open , looks like we need to get more rooms and a second coach ! Most haven't a hope of collecting money , but I guess they would rather a fun weekend in Poland playing darts than playing 4 singles in a leisure centre , that at times resembles a doctors surgery !

Simon Rimington
And this is my point, darts for fun. That's all the BDO will be.

I dont mind the bdo, the moment they officially label themselves as amateur darts
