“The crowd were great, they brought the best out of me all weekend.

“I’ve played a great tournament; I got lucky against Peter but, apart from that, I think I deserve to win the event.

“I will win a TV event one day, it will happen. I won’t give in until it does.”

The final began with Chisnall opening up leads of 3-1 and 4-2, before Pietreczko reeled off a trio of legs to take the lead for the first time at 5-4.

Pietreczko, whose epic semi-final win over Luke Humphries saw him become the first German to reach two European Tour event finals, then took a 6-5 lead.

However, Chisnall landed checkouts of 87 and 115 to regain the advantage before a third straight leg saw him claim the £30,000 top prize.

The PDC European Tour continues with the Hungarian Darts Trophy in Budapest from September 20-22.
