Tips & predictions

Darts produces numbers on every visit to the oche, which makes it tempting to treat a tip as a calculation. A tip remains an opinion about a price, however, and its worth lies in the reasoning behind it.

Picks of the day, tipsters, AI predictions and 1X2 selections are all handled as material to be questioned. Useful tools are converting 5/1 to 6.00, spotting the margin inside a market and comparing a price with the chance it implies.

None of this makes a selection safe: no match is named, and no return is promised. The punter owes no tax on betting winnings; someone gambling professionally is referred to HMRC or an adviser.
