What It Means:
In this bet, each player in a specific darts session or tournament matchday must hit at least 8 scores of 180 (i.e., scoring three treble 20s in a single turn).
- A 180 is the highest possible score with three darts (T20 + T20 + T20).
- This bet only wins if every listed player (usually both in each match of a session) hits 8 or more 180s individually.
Example Scenario:
Let’s say you’re betting on a Premier League Darts night with 4 matches (8 players total):
| Player | 180s Hit |
|---|---|
| Player A | 10 |
| Player B | 9 |
| Player C | 8 |
| Player D | 11 |
| Player E | 13 |
| Player F | 8 |
| Player G | 7 |
| Player H | 12 |
- In this case, the bet loses because Player G only hit 7 180s.
- All 8 players must hit 8 or more 180s for the bet to win.
Key Points to Know:
- Applies per player, not combined totals.
- Usually offered for Premier League, World Championship, or PDC Tour sessions where big scorers feature.
- Long-format matches (best of 19, best of 21) give players more chances to score 180s.
Good Matches for This Bet:
- Long-format games (World Championship, Grand Slam, etc.).
- Players known for heavy scoring (e.g., Michael Smith, Luke Littler, Michael van Gerwen).
- Sessions with multiple high-profile matchups.
Betting Tips:
- Check Recent Form:
- Use stats sites to review how many 180s each player averages per match.
- Look at past meetings between players.
- Target High 180 Hitters:
- Favor nights with multiple known power scorers.
- Avoid Short Format Events:
- Short matches = fewer legs = fewer chances for 180s.
- Use In-Play Option:
- Some bookies offer this bet in-play once you see the scoring pace.
Final Tip:
This is a high-risk, high-reward accumulator-style bet. One underperforming player can ruin it, but odds are often very attractive (5.00+ or higher depending on lineup).
