Darts Scoring Method

Darts is typically played with a standard board that has numbered sections from 1 to 20, plus the bullseye. Each section has

  • Single (outer area of a section) – face value (e.g., hitting the 20 gives 20 points).
  • Double (thin outer ring) – double the value (e.g., hitting the double 20 gives 40 points).
  • Triple (thin inner ring) – triple the value (e.g., hitting the triple 20 gives 60 points).
  • Bullseye : Outer bullseye (green) – 25 and points Inner bullseye (red) – 50 points.

501 Game Rules & How to Finish
  • Each player starts with 501 points and must reduce their score to exactly 0.
  • Players take turns throwing three darts per turn and subtract the total score from their remaining points.
  • The game must end with a double (hitting a double ring that lands exactly at 0).

Strategies to Finish a 501 Game (Checkout)
Common Finishing Moves
  • If you have 40 points left, aim for Double 20 (D20).
  • If you have 32 points left, aim for Double 16 (D16) (favored as it can be halved multiple times).
  • If you have 50 points left, you can finish with a bullseye.
2. Checkout Table (Examples)
  • 170 left → T20, T20, Bullseye
  • 100 left → T20, D20
  • 61 left → T11, D14
3. Avoid Busting
  • If you go below 0, your turn is voided, and your score resets to the previous turn.
  • If you land on 1, you cannot finish (since you need a double).
