136
3-dart checkout
Strategy
A high-pressure checkout. Hit T20, T20, D8 in sequence. Focus on the trebles first — if you miss, you may still leave yourself a workable finish. If your T20 lands in S20, you'll need 136 with 3 darts remaining. A miss sideways into the 5 or 1 segments changes the equation significantly. If your T20 lands in S20, you'll need 76 with 2 darts remaining. A miss sideways into the 5 or 1 segments changes the equation significantly. You'll encounter 136 frequently in competitive 501 and 301 play.
Alternative Routes
Besides T20 → T20 → D8, alternative routes include: T20 → T16 → D12. The best choice depends on which area of the board you're most confident in.
Pro Tip
D8 is part of the D16 halving chain and a well-practiced double for most players. Missing into S8 leaves D4, keeping you in the halving sequence. It's located on the left side of the board.
