How darts legs and sets affect a pick

What a 6-4 score tells you in a race to six legs

Ten legs were played. The winner's margin was two legs, enough to cover -1.5 legs but short of -2.5. If the event uses sets, read the set score and the legs within each set separately.

Questions people ask

What is a checkout?

It is the score a player finishes in one visit. In a double-out leg, a player on 40 can check out on double 20. That visit wins one leg.

How does a highest-checkout pick differ from a match pick?

The player with the largest successful checkout can lose the match. Compare each player's largest finish, even if it came early in the contest.
