When you land on 27

27 is a classic two-dart finish. Throw 11 (11) to leave 16, then double 8 (16). You will often see 27 after a strong opening visit, so it pays to know the route by heart.

If you miss

Your finishing dart is D8 (16). Slip inside to the single 8 and you are left on 8 — finish on double 4. Miss outside the wire and you stay on 16 for your next dart, so you never lose the double.
