DARTS NEVER STOPS
A live match engine. Real darts maths. No guesswork.
Every price on this site is computed from a simulated match running in your browser. No bookmaker feed, no real fixtures, and nothing here can be bet on.
On the oche now
Recomputed after every visit, from thousands of simulated finishes of the leg itself. Fair odds, no margin.
Match centreThe leg, as it happens
Two invented players, two real numbers each — a three-dart average and a checkout percentage. Everything below is worked out from those, live. Change either number in config/darts.php and every price on the page moves, because that is all a price here ever was.

Fair price to win the match
4,000 simulated finishes of this leg from the current position, then the rest of the match solved exactly from the two players' per-leg win rates. Fair book 100.0% — a bookmaker would add a margin on top, and the overround tool shows you how much.

A 180 really does move the price. Watch the bars above when one lands.
WHAT DO I LEAVE?
Every score from 2 to 170, searched rather than looked up. It will tell you the route, how many darts it needs, and when there is no route at all.
WHAT IS THE MARGIN?
Fractional, decimal and implied probability, three ways. Add a second price and it tells you the bookmaker's cut of the market.
The fieldEight players who do not exist
Invented on purpose. Real players' names are not used anywhere on this site, because the averages and prices beside them are generated, and a made-up statistic against a real person's name is a lie about that person.

Guides
How a darts price is actually builtAverages and checkout percentage in, a probability out, a price after that.
A darts match is unusually easy to model compared with most sports, because it breaks into independent units. A leg is 501 points, thrown three darts at a time, and finished on a double. Almost everything that matters about a player reduces to two numbers: how many points they average per three darts, and how often they hit the double when they get a look at it.
Give a model those two numbers for each player and it can play the rest of the match out, thousands of times, from wherever the real match currently stands. Count how often each player wins. That share is the probability. One divided by the probability is the fair decimal price.
That is precisely what the match centre on this page is doing, and why the numbers twitch after every visit to the board: a 180 genuinely changes the position, so it genuinely changes the price. A bookmaker does the same job with real player data and then adds a margin on top.
Overround: the bit that is not the probabilityTurn both prices into percentages and add them up. Over 100% is the margin.
Convert a decimal price to an implied probability by dividing one by it. A price of 2.00 implies 50%. Do that for every outcome in a market and add the results together. If the market were priced with no margin the total would be exactly 100%.
It never is. A two-way darts market priced 1.80 and 2.10 implies 55.6% and 47.6%, which adds up to 103.2%. That extra 3.2 percentage points is the overround, and it is the bookmaker's expected cut of everything staked on the market.
The odds tools below will do that sum for you. It is the single most useful piece of arithmetic in betting, because it tells you what a market costs to enter before you have formed any opinion at all about who is going to win.
Bogey numbers, and why 159 is worse than 160Seven scores under 170 cannot be finished in three darts. They are not the obvious ones.
Finishing needs the last dart in a double, so a checkout is a search for three darts whose total is the score and whose last is even, a bullseye, or a double. Most scores up to 170 have a route. Seven do not: 159, 162, 163, 165, 166, 168 and 169.
160 is a straightforward T20, T20, D20. 159 is impossible in three. That is why a player who has left themselves 159 has made a worse mistake than one on 160, even though the score is lower, and why commentators groan at certain numbers.
The checkout finder on this page searches every combination rather than reading from a list, so you can confirm all seven for yourself by typing them in.
Staying in charge of itDeposit limits, timeouts and self-exclusion, and where to get help that is not us.
Every Gambling Commission licensed operator has to offer deposit limits, reality checks, timeouts and self-exclusion, and they are obliged to apply them once you ask. They are in the account settings, not hidden behind support.
GAMSTOP will exclude you from every GB licensed online operator at once, for six months, one year or five years, from one form at gamstop.co.uk. It cannot be undone early, which is the point of it.
For free, confidential help that has nothing to sell you, the National Gambling Helpline is 0808 8020 133, open at any hour, and BeGambleAware.org has the full picture. If betting has stopped being entertainment, those are better first calls than any betting site, including this one.
