Darts Betting
Darts has evolved from its humble beginnings as a pub game to become a global sport followed by millions of fans. As a result, darts betting has grown massively in popularity.
We love the darts here at Betfinder.co.uk you can follow our darts betting tips and advice throughout the darts calendar with our tournament reviews, expert darts tips and best odds advice on a huge variety of markets.
It’s simple to bet on darts, whether you want to put a wager before the game or wait until the players are on the oche when you can do live darts betting or adjust your current position. Darts betting can be very unpredictable as players come in and out of form often but if you do the research and study the stats some good angles can be found.
You can place darts bets on who you think will win each match or the tournament as a whole with your darts bet, and most online bookmakers has a plethora of sub-markets ranging from exact score and handicaps to total 180s and highest checkout.

Different types of darts bets
Here are the most common types of darts bets available with most darts bookmakers.
Outright Winner of Tournament
You can bet on the ante post markets for the big darts events such as the World Championship, World Matchplay and World Grand Prix all year round. These long term futures markets will only usually include betting on the outright winner.
Match Result
This is the most simplest type of darts bet where you simply have to predict the winner of a given match. This is usually a 2-way market but can sometimes include the draw option for Premier League Darts matches for example.
Handicap Betting
Where there is a heavy favourite you can bet on the handicap markets where the underdog is given a theoretical start like +2.5 legs or +1.5 sets. In these markets the favourite has to overcome the handicap for a winning bet.
Set Betting
This is a market for predicting the correct score in sets. For example in a best 3-set match the possible outcomes are 2-0 or 2-1 either way.
Total 180s
This Over / Under market gives you total line for the total number of 180’s in a match from both players. You have to bet whether the total will go over or under a particular line.
Most 180s
A popular darts bet in which it doesn’t matter who wins the match, but which player hits the most maximums. This is a good market to watch for heavy 180 scorers or when it involves a player who likes to switch to the 19’s quite often.
Total Legs
Another Over / Under bet where you can bet on whether the total number of legs in the match will be over or under a line set by the bookmaker.
Highest Checkout (Over / Under)
This market asks you to predict whether the highest checkout will be higher or lower than a particular number.
Player with Highest Checkout
Which player will score the highest checkout? This is a simple 2-way betting market.
Nine Dart Finish
Betting odds are often given on whether a perfect nine dart finish will take place in a given match or tournament.
Best Bookmakers for Darts Betting
The major sponsors of darts tournaments such as Betfred and Boylesports usually have a few darts betting offers on their own events.
For example, Irish bookmaker Boylesports often run a great darts promotion whereby if your player wins the match with a checkout of 100+ then they will double your winnings. (Bonus part paid in free bet credits)
