Biggest Betting Events in Darts
A unique game made of scores like doubles, trebles and bullseyes, darts has many competitive events for players to enjoy. There are many different tournaments, but the triple crown events organised by the PDC are the most viewed. The World Darts Championship is undoubtedly the most significant tournament for darts. Originating in 1994, it starts in December and continues until January.
World Matchplay is one of the legs of the triple crown events in darts. It has also been held annually since its inauguration back in 1994. Premier League Darts is the final leg of the triple crown events.
Best Bets in Darts
Winner Nationality
This is an exciting betting option that allows you to predict the nation of the player who you believe will win the tournament. For example, if an English player is, in your opinion, an outstanding darts player and you think he will win a tournament, you can select England. The odds will be determined by the likelihood of someone from a particular nation winning the tournament.
Most Popular Bets in Darts
Tournament/Match winner
The most popular type of bet in darts is predicting the winner of a match or tournament. It is a straightforward bet. This is a very popular bet for more significant championships like the PDC World Darts Champion.
Most 180s
A 180 is the highest score you can achieve in darts with each throw. Each player throws three darts, therefore if a player scores a triple-twenty from each dart thrown, he gets a 180. With this bet type, you can choose which player you think will score the most 180s in a tournament.
Handicap Bet
It’s common for there to be matches where a strong player is to compete against a player who is far inferior. To make things more interesting in these instances, some bettors opt for handicap betting. In this market, you bet on the favourite (stronger player) or the underdog (weaker). But the catch is the favourite will have to overcome a handicap. So let’s say you want to place your bet on the favourite, Player A, winning, and there is a handicap of -2.5 on this player. This means Player A would have to win by at least three sets for your bet to be successful.
9 Dart Finish
The goal of a darts game is to get 501 points. The 9 dart finish is an incredible feat accomplished by masters of darts in which a player gets exactly 501 points in nine throws. There are many options as to how a player can accomplish this, but the most common is to score triple 20s in all the first six shots and then get a triple 20, triple 19 and double 12 for the last three shots.
