PDC World Championship Darts Betting 2010

Looking to nail his 15th PDC World Championship, Dart's living legend Phil Taylor is – somewhat unsurprisingly – the online darts betting bookies' clear favourite in the PDC World Championship Darts Betting 2010 markets. We say 'unsurprisingly' as so far in 2009 'The Power' has successfully bagged the UK Open, World Grand Prix, European Championships, Grand Slam and World Matchplay titles; which even by the best darts player in the world's standards is pretty impressive going.

Although as we know only too well, nothing in online sports betting is quite a given, and there's always a chance of an upset at the top of any individual sport. Tiger Woods has been beaten, Roger Federer isn't invincible and Jenson Button is not entirely indomitable. And rare as hen's teeth they may be, Taylor has succumbed to darts defeat in the past; even against qualifiers during what must have been the type of unfathomable off-days that we can all have. Even those who have dominated a particular sport for as long as Taylor has darts.

Phil 'The Power' Taylor Gets Online Darts Betting Bookies' Nod For PDC World Championship

All of which makes the prospect of making a killing on the PDC World Championship darts betting 2010 markets a better prospect in a perverse kind of way. Just think about it for a moment. With Phil 'The Power' Taylor being talked up as the overwhelming online bookies' darts betting favourite going into the PDC World Championship, then just think of the tempting odds being offered on his rivals chances of turning the tables on the man from the Potteries yeah yeah?

Take for instance the average internet odds offered on second favourite James Wade which are currently 8/1 across the virtual PDC World Championship darts betting 2010 markets. And what of the two professional dartists sitting behind Wade in the online darts betting order, Raymond van Barneveld and Gary Anderson? Fantastic players in their own right who have the talent to beat anyone on their day are generally priced up at the 14/1 at this juncture. Which just goes to show that there's money to be made on PDC World Championship darts betting 2010; providing that Taylor slips up.

Van Barneveld Best Bet To Halt Taylor At PDC World Championship Darts According To Bookies

And that's the million question isn't it. Or whatever the more realistic the wager you're willing to place with an online darts betting bookie before the competition gets under way this December. Will Taylor's procession towards snaffling up all of the darts betting world's major tournaments show any signs of slowing up during the PDC World Championship? But don't fret – as away from the darts betting arena of the PDC World Championship darts betting 2010 Outright Win markets, there's a whole world of choice where you might just back a winner who'll make a return on your investment.

Raymond van Barneveld, Terry Jenkins and Andy Hamilton representing the sensible money here.

And then there's the To Reach Final pages listed in most of the leading online darts betting bookies' PDC World Championship darts betting 2010 ready sections. Again, an area that Betfair proffer decent permeations in once Taylor's removed from the equation. Otherwise there's 9 Dart Finish (as memorable first achieved in the PDC World Championship last year by van Barneveld), New Champion, Winning Nationality, Quarter 1 Outright, Quarter 2 Outright, Quarter 3 Outright and strangely enough, Quarter 4 Outright. Amongst the PDC World Championship darts betting 2010 market specials, there's a collection of Phil Taylor specials; just in case you didn't believe he was going to figure prominently in this the biggest of online darts betting tournaments covered by the web's leading bookies.

Who also sponsor the tournament just for the record.

James Wade Good Bet Ahead Of PDC World Championship Suggest Online Darts Betting Bookies

The PDC World Championship darts is as traditional as tinsel, mince pies and that chubby bloke in the red felt suit getting wedged in the chimney at this time of year, and is played out over each and every Yuletide. The only sports event that we know of that takes two years to decide an eventual winner; being as it spans late December and early January that is. With the first arrow launched in anger as of the 18th of December 2009, the last will find its resting place in the final darts board on January the 3rd 2010; albeit with two scheduled breaks for Christmas and New Year. Hosted by London's Alexandra Palace, there's a £1 million pound prize fund on offer, with the winner bagging £200,000 and the runner-up being in receipt of £100,000. The third placed darts player walks off with £60,000, whilst the player finishing in fourth spot overall takes £40,000.
