PROUD darts star Brian Raman finished off a stunning 132 checkout with a wink at the camera.
For a split second, Raman was the coolest man in the house after hitting an outrageous checkout in his first leg against Brit Mark Dudbridge.

After losing the first leg against his throw, Raman answered in style in the Modus Super Series.
With Dudbridge on a D18 checkout, Raman answered with bull, D16, bull in three quick throws.
The commentator – who was just getting settled into the match – was left stunned.
But it was Raman’s celebration that grabbed the attention.
As soon as the last dart flew in, he immediately turned left into the camera’s gaze and stood confidently with his hands on his hip.
The Riddler then winked into the camera, while letting out a cheeky grin, before collecting his throws.
The caller said: “Oh no! Oh yes! How about that. A showstopper from the showman. That is the boldest play of the week.”
While on social media, one fan said “this guy loves an unconventional finish”.

A second noticed: “Not even the cameraman knew what was going on .”
Another fan added: “Typical Modus Super Series finish.”
But Raman couldn’t capitalise on his perfect start, as his afternoon quickly fell apart.
The 28-year-old didn’t win another leg and bowed out to a 4-1 defeat to Dudbridge.
But Raman did go on to beat Tom Sykes 4-3 later on Friday.
