Result: Smith 4-6 Aspinall
A slow start in the final probably cost Michael Smith and, as he said, it allowed Nathan Aspinall to control it.
Smith had the marginally higher average, 96.16 to 95.55, and matched Aspinall's three 180s.
The Asp edged it on 140s, though, nine to seven, so despite Bully Boy being more efficient on the doubles - 44.4% to Aspinall's 30%, it is the man from Stockport who gets the win.

More from Nathan Aspinall, speaking to Sky Sports: "The first game was massive for me, Peter [Wright] was struggling really bad. It's not nice to see but you have to stamp on them.
"Then against Luke, I got it back to 4-3 and I saw he wasn't happy, I had to capitalise and I did. In the final, I had nothing to lose because I shouldn't have been in the final really.
"I've got a reputation of being behind, digging deep and winning games. My opponent might be 4-0 up but in my head I'm better so if you can win four legs, so can I. That was a big win against Luke Humphries tonight.
"It was big. Me and Smithy are really good mates. We're going on holiday together next week so it might be a bit awkward.
"I thought I played well and controlled the final. I didn't play amazing but if I'm playing well, not many can beat me."

Night 12 winner Nathan Aspinall, speaking to Sky Sports: "Massive win. The game against Luke Humphries was massive. It gave me a shot against Michael. But I've played in Rotterdam twice and won twice!
"Last year I lost out on [the play-offs] on nightly wins. I think 26 could be a push to make it this year. It's fantastic, credit to the all the lads, it's been the most enjoyable Premier League I've been involved in.
"We all get on. There is a lot of banter in the back room. It's a fantastic atmosphere. We all want to win but I think if you win this year, you've done well. It's tough."

Smith 4-6 Aspinall
Nathan Aspinall has his second Premier League nightly win of the year!
He made it hard for himself by missing four darts at double, allowing Michael Smith one dart to force a decider.
But Bully Boy missed tops and The Asp returned to hit double four.
Fitting that in the week that Stockport County clinched the League Two title, it's a man from Stockport taking home the trophy.

They did start just before 22:30 BST but a delay - it's not entirely clear why - means they're probably now right back on schedule.

Michael Smith v Nathan Aspinall
One final burst of Mr Brightside with feeling from the Rotterdam crowd as Nathan Aspinall makes his way to the oche.
Someone must have unplugged one of those 27 miles worth of cable as during Michael Smith's walk-on, the TV images cut out.
Sound was still coming through loud and clear but thankfully we have visuals again. That said, live texting darts exclusively from the thud of the darts hitting the board would have been interesting...
