Kim Huybrechts has suffered an early exit on his Premier League debut after he could only draw 6-6 with Stephen Bunting on Thursday night.
The Belgian needed to win and hope results went his way, but after missing two darts at double in the final leg, he was confirmed in bottom place in the table.
Peter Wright has also missed out on a place in the final eight after he was beaten 7-4 by Adrian Lewis, who recorded just his second win in nine matches.
Raymond van Barneveld needed to avoid defeat in the final game of the night against Gary Anderson, but the Dutchman found some of his best form to record the six legs he required before Anderson earned a point.
Michael van Gerwen has remained top of the standings with a 7-4 win over James Wade, but Phil Taylor suffered a fourth defeat of the tournament after losing by the same scoreline to Dave Chisnall.
