Biggest Pairs cup of Summer season ends with a 2-1 defeat

Hi Guys

I did decide to turn up for the pair competition, not realising just how big it would be as their ended up being 41 pairs turn up + spectators filling the small 4 board room up with 120+ people.

It was cramped galore, and absolutely boiling.

This was like a 'whose who' of County and local BDO players.

We drew a league 1 pair, whom i've not seen before. A nice bunch of lads, friendly and polite.

Anyway, we took the first leg with my partner taking out d2, but then we both had a serious 'mare' and lost the next 2 legs to lose  2-1.

We just never got going after the first leg and even a pressure 100 from me to take us down to a finish with them on 40 wasn't enough and they closed out.
