Rule 30-2020 - DARTS

2020.1

The results of a Darts match include all possible parts within a match until a final winner is determined.

2020.2

The Office may offer the following darts Wager types:

(a) Money Line-A "Money Line" or straight up wager is a bet on the outright winner of the game or event without any point spread odds.

(1) In a "Match Winner" Wager, the Player predicts the final result of a darts match by correctly selecting darts player (or team) A to win or darts player (or team) B to win or a draw (whenever available). In the event of a darts match in a knockout competition of a 2way format starting, but for whatever reason not being completed, the player progressing to the next round will be deemed the winner.

(2) In a "Set/Leg Winner" Wager, the Player predicts the final result (player A to win, player B to win, or draw) of a specific set or leg of a match (1^st set, 2^nd set, 3^rd set, etc.).

(b) Point Spread/Handicap-A "Point Spread" Wager is when a plus or minus Handicap (line) is assigned to either team and then it is added or subtracted to each final score to determine the winner. The "Point Spread" represents the margin of points in which the favored team must win by to "cover the spread."

(1) In a "Winner with Spread/Handicap" Wager, the Player predicts which darts player will win the most sets or legs in a match, taking into account a Point Spread/Handicap in sets or legs for one of the two players/athletes. A Point Spread/Handicap can be a whole number or not. This Point Spread/Handicap is taken into account when determining a winning prediction. If the Point Spread/Handicap is not a whole number, then a draw cannot be a resulting outcome. This Wager can be offered per specified set (1^st set, 2^nd set, 3^rd set, etc.), in which case the prediction involves only the legs that will be played in that segment of the match.

(c) Total Over/Under -In a "Total Over/Under" Wager, the Player predicts if the total number of points scored that will be played in a match is greater or less than a specific range. This Wager can be offered for a specified set or leg (1^st set, 2^nd set, 3^rd set, etc.), or for specific darts player, or a combination of player and sets/legs in which case the prediction involves only the points that will be played in that segment of the match and/or the player.

(1) In a "Total Sets/Legs" Wager, the Player predicts the exact number of sets that will be played in a match or the exact number of legs that will be played within a set.

(d) Odd/Even-In an "Odd/Even" Wager, the Player predicts whether the total number of points scored will be played in a match is odd or even. This Wager can be offered for a specified set or leg (1^st set, 2^nd set, 3^rd set, etc.), or for specific darts player, or a combination of player and sets/legs in which case the prediction involves only the points that will be played in that segment of the match and/or the darts player. In all circumstances, zero (0) is considered to be an even number.

(e) Proposition "Prop" Wagers-"Proposition" Wagers are wagers on a specific outcome during an event that does not relate to the final score. They may be offered as "Team Props," "Player Props" and "Special Props."

(1) In a "Correct Score" Wager, the Player predicts the correct score in sets or legs (1^st set, 2^nd set, 3^rd set, etc.) of a darts match.

(2) In a "180s" Wager, predictions refer to the specific statistical measurement of 180 (the highest possible score with three darts). Players can predict "Player with Most 180s," "Player with Most 180s with Handicap, "Total 180s." This Wager can be offered for a specified set or leg (1^st set, 2^nd set, 3^rd set, etc.), or for specific darts player, or a combination of player and sets/legs in which case the prediction involves only the points that will be played in that segment of the match and/or the darts player.
