"I was a bit worried seeing his walk-on, said, Harrysson said who beat the 12th seed, Ross Smith, in the first round. I think I managed it quite OK. He wasn't as he was in the first game on the stage."
"Before the match started I was just thinking finish well and put him under pressure, said Searle, who has fallen at the third-round stage in the past three years. He missed a few doubles here and there and I was pretty ruthless. I'm going home now and looking forward to Christmas."
Ricardo Pietreczko eliminated Dave Chisnall from the PDC World Championship despite Chisnall hitting 11 180s. Chisnall suffered from double trouble, missing a match dart in the final set after a 113 finish and a missed double 16 for a potential 143 checkout. Pietreczko did not hit a single 180 but averaged 88.58 to Chisnall's 88.15 and won three consecutive legs to close out the match. Motomu Sakai, a crowd favourite with an exuberant walk-on and dance moves, lost 3-0 to Sweden's Andreas Harrysson after beating Thibault Tricole. Ryan Searle averaged over 98 in a straight-sets win over Brendan Dolan. James Hurrell upset Dirk van Duijvenbode 3-2.
