 | | Subject: 79 Left with 1 Dart Wed Dec 26, 2012 3:49 am | |
| I was playing a bit of 301 practice games last night. One of my games I had 79 with one dart left in my hand. Out of habit I threw at the trip 13 to try and leave 40 but hit a single 13 instead. I realized what and idiot move that was though. I left myself 66 for my next turn. That's going to force me to hit a triple in order to get 2 darts at a double. Not a very smart move and certainly puts me under more pressure than necessary. What I should of done from 79 with 1 dart left is to go 19's. That way I could leave myself 60 and get 2 darts at a double on my next turn. I've just given myself 50% more of a chance of winning. Of course hitting a trip 19 while on 79 might not be ideal, I'd still get 3 clear darts at a double on my next go.
What would you guys do with 79 left and 1 dart in hand- any why?? |

| I'd probably go Bull, leaves me 29 (s5, d12) or 54 (s14, d20) with an outer bull next visit. |

18's is no good. A single leaves 61. That forces you to go for a triple on the next turn or a 25. But going at the bull could leave you with 11. |

| 18? Bull = 50, outer 25? I'm lost there JD, how would bull leave you with 11? 79 - 50 = 29 79 - 25 = 54 Or am I missing something  |

| Think you got me wrong, the 54 was what I would leave if I hit the outer bull going for Bullseye  obviously I would leave 29 if I hit center bull. |

| I'd go for T19 - as you said in your initial post a single 19 leaves you with 60 next turn which gives you 2 darts at a double without needing to hit a treble |

| I go at 19's. Main reason being I dont mind d6 if I snag the t19, but also for the 60 it leaves if I get a s19 |

| An old player once told me to look for the 19's with one dart left if number you have left has a number 9 on the end. Makes sense to me. Now using your head I wouldn't shoot 19's with say 29 left but the 9 of course. Same with 49.

| Triple 19. Not that D11 is the best leave, but an out shot is an out shot.. |

| 95% of the time I will go 19's but if my opponent is miles behind ( and sometimes in practice ) I will take a stab at the T13. It's all about how you feel on the day. |

| Treble 19 every time and will always go that way for 79 with 1 dart or 3 darts in my hand. Another good number for that is 94 with 3 darts in your hand, which way do you go 18's or Bull? |

Naw, 17 no good man. A Single leaves 62 next time you walk to the board. |
