When you land on 144

144 is a three-dart finish — you will use all three darts. Start with T18 (54) to bring 144 down into double range, then follow the route to double 20 (40). Set up cleanly so a missed dart still leaves a makeable double.

If you miss

Your finishing dart is D20 (40). Slip inside to the single 20 and you are left on 20 — finish on double 10. Miss outside the wire and you stay on 40 for your next dart, so you never lose the double.
