One little detail I appreciate about YesPlay is that they are upfront about a lot of things. Like when betting on a game of darts, you’ll see a little “+16” next to each of the matchups. It might seem confusing, but what it actually means is that even though the game seems very basic, you can quickly get overwhelmed and lose track of what’s going on if you don’t pay close attention.
Betting on Darts can look easy peasy because it’s literally just two oke’s throwing pointy things at a board, but you must know that there are different formats, depending on the event. So before you bet you better know the format.
Before you bet
- See if the match is sets, legs, or both.
- Begin with the basics: Winner, Total sets, Set handicap.
- Only click on “More markets” once you know how the match works.
- Keep an eye on how the prices shift during in-play betting.
- Don’t be too greedy with your bet until you’ve gotten a hang of things and know how everything works.
The trap
Often you’ll think you know everything, but you don’t. On YesPlay you’ll see something called Total sets, which means that you’re betting on sets instead of legs. If you bet on legs then it’s like you are just making random guesses, because you won’t know what’s going on.
Here’s an easy tip that can help you improve: Before placing a bet, have a look at the Darts section on YesPlay, which you can quickly find here: https://yesplay.bet/sports/prematch/darts. Then, pick a game and just make sure you read all the details about the games on your bet slip, such as set totals, or set handicaps.
Last checkout
Just one lucky dart throw is all you need to turn the whole game around, that’s what makes watching darts so interesting. If you don’t feel like thinking too much, just put all your money on the person you think is going to win. If you’re trying to spice things up, then you should check out totals and handicaps. Most importantly, don’t be stupid, start with small bets, and enjoy yourself without losing all your money.
