When you land on 12
12 is a one-dart finish: a single dart at double 6 (12) wins the leg. You reach 12 by scoring down to a clean double, so once you are here, settle and take your double.
If you miss
Your finishing dart is D6 (12). Slip inside to the single 6 and you are left on 6 — finish on double 3. Miss outside the wire and you stay on 12 for your next dart, so you never lose the double.
