Players race to get the score of 55. The scoring involves an interesting play of addition and division. In his turn, a player must land three darts that would yield a score which is divisible by five. The actual score that will be recorded for him is his ordinary score (the total of the three darts’) divided by five. Only those ordinary scores that are divisible by five can be counted.

An ordinary score refers to the score based on the general scoring system for darts. Darts that bounce or get stuck unto other darts earn no points. The double and triple scores also apply.

As an example, player A shoots his darts scoring a total of 45. In this case he gets an actual score of 9 (45 divided by 5). However, if the total score for that turn were 43, no score can be counted since 43 is not evenly divisible by five.

The players should be more careful with their shots as they approach 51. If any of the scores goes beyond 51, a bust is declared. The players would have to repeat the game then.
