501 in one minute
- Both players start on 501.
- Each visit is up to three darts; their total comes off what you have left. The most one visit can score is 180 — three treble 20s.
- Finish on exactly zero, and the last dart must be a double (the bullseye counts as double 25).
Busts
A visit is a bust when it would take you below zero, leave you on 1 (you can’t finish 1 with a double), or reach zero without a double. A bust scores nothing: you go back to what you had at the start of the visit. On 32, for example, a single 20 leaves 12 — then a single 13 would go below zero, so the visit busts and you are back on 32.
Checkouts
A checkout is a finish. The highest is 170 — treble 20, treble 20, bullseye. Some totals under 170 have no three-dart finish at all: 169, 168, 166, 165, 163, 162 and 159. A classic two-dart finish is 100: treble 20, double 20. The checkout chart has a route for every finish.
An example visit
